This week, I have a different take on who is most important. Last week, I said Chris White and he sure enough needed to play much better. This week I am going to the offensive side of the ball. Let's face it, our secondary can't be much worse and we can only pray for a monsoon to keep the all-time passing record book from being carried around by the referee and adjusted accordingly during the game. I think a lot of people are focusing on Dixon and I believe he needs a great game. But I'm going with his running mate:

Christian Ducre

Ducre will probably get a lot of the 2nd string snaps and occasionally runs the shotgun opposite Dixon. Ducre has power, is a downhill runner with a little more lean to him, and if it is wet, we will be running a lot. However, it just seems that over the years (outside of 2007) that Ducre fumbles at the worst times. The holes will be there for both backs, but we really need Ducre to hold onto the ball and run hard when he gets his chances to keep that Houston offense off the field.
