re: Is Ausbon's injury a blessing in disguise?

Jimbo said he expects Ausbon back this week, which is good news for the offense. In the 4 games he missed, our WRs combined for 2 TDs and an amazing total of one game of 60+ yards.

I think we can say his time away was not a blessing, but really the entire WR group needs to step up. We had 3 60+ yard receivers and 2 TDs from the WR group in the Clemson game alone. Since then, in 7 games, the WRs had just 2 60+ yard games and 2 TD.

I was unrealistically hoping that Ausbon's absence would result in other WR stepping up...which clearly didn't happen.
