I know you have problems but 2 backs equaling the production of 1 GREAT back is entirely possible. Dixon was arguable better than Brown 2 years ago and last year he had issues with the coaching staff and injuries that kept him off the field and performing. This year he is refocused and ready to be a team guy and is in much better shape. The production at RB will be very close to waht is was last year. None of them are Donald Brown but they will not be relying on 1 running back liek last year.

If you watched the game Frazer had 2 INTs that were because his receivers dropped the ball or it hit off his hands. They were not his fault.Also it was the 1st game under a completely new offensive system.

It's like the scene in White Men Can't Jump when the guys are all ready to throw down until they stop to watch the Lakers game.

No thanks on Unions..

Agreed.  My brother works for Ford....there are people on the assembly line....turning wrenches...doing the same thing hour after hour....making $100K plus with overtime.  It's just not right.  It's a $15-$20 an hour job and they are overpaying BIG time.  Is there any wonder they auto industry is struggling?

Someone has to start the Companies that these people work for,
and it's by their blood, toil, tears, sweat, money and willingness
to take a chance that provide the jobs(If they are successful).
 
Not all Companies survive. What the Hell would the Unions do
if not for entrepreneurs.(people with a visions and dreams)?
 
All BIG Corp's started out small.

DJ Eyebrows. I was just working on that NC-Conn game, my friend.  I like your thinking. If you read about that match-up game last year in Carolina, you will see that Frazier threw interceptions but UConn lost due to special teams. In addition, some of the lights went out in the second half disrupting the game. Not making excuses for Conn because they were behind at halftime.

I just think they are a live dog. + 4.5 and Conn. looks good to me.

Good Luck if you decide to take them.

Yes, they are unionized and receive benefits, including health care. If Walmart wasn't provding said care, it would be taxpayers you and I.
 
WalMart? maybe in their ChiCom operations because the Chinese made that part of the deal to open stores there BUT I don't think there are any union shops in their American stores

I have problems?  Put down the bong.  Dixon arguably better than brown??  You have lost your damn mind.  Was this before or after his DUI escapade... just another UConn underachieving thug... I know you are a UConn homer, and I know that you love their players with all your heart... I understand that... but be realistic...

Learn to read instead of attacking.

I clearly said 2 years ago Dixon had arguably a better season than Brown and last year he had issues with the coaching staff and injuries. This year he is in the best shape of his career and udnerstand his role on the team.

If his issues were suspensions for drinking one a team road trip, then a DUI... then yes he had trouble with the coaching staff.  He was not arguably better than Brown in 2007 either... UConn is a 7 in team at best this year plain and simple... Like I said I go to every game I see it first hand... they lost a lot this year on both sides of the ball
