I think due to the annual/typical/likelihood ebbs and flows of a football season, etc., relative to our injuries this season to date, I do think we have been relatively fortunate as we head into week 9, it could be far worse.  IMO, I don't think we have been hit hard at all.  Losing Elmore and Jones, again, from a pure objective productivity standpoint based on the prior two seasons, etc. isn't much to talk about really.

The defensive losses are more significant IMO, however, their replacements have stepped up as I mentioned.

Yes, we absolutely could use a second receiver.  My point on Jones was that based upon his actual numbers, etc., from a pure productivity standpoint, we shouldn't have that much difficulty in replacing that.  He was not pigeon holed or firmly established as our #2 guy when he went down for good in the Purdue game.  In year 7 of Dino, not having an solid number 2 guy at this stage rests 100% on his shoulders.

I forgot about Jaquez.
