What happens If 89 goes down with an injury?

I pray that Smith dominates and plays lights out all season but it has me worried that without him we cannot move the ball on offense. (Just like the preseason) I have been reading so many arguments about why we should or should not bring in a proven WR to back up smith and understand both sides of the story. But I have to ask does anyone really think anyone on this roster can step in and try to fill smitty's shoes? I think Having at least 1 other WR on the roster (Moose last year for instance) with some experience will be a huge benefit.

Let the arguments begin :)

A passage from Jeff Davidson's scripted playbook:

"If 89 is injured or ejected, passing situations are to be handled as followed:

A. Try a short pass for two yards and hope the D misses tackles.

B. Draw play

C. Wildcat/Mountaineer/Helter Skelter formation. Don't really know what to do after that because a converted college QB has been learning WR, KR, PR and Wildcat and doesn't know any of it yet. But other teams used to do it until it became obsolete and I intend to bring it back in style like polka dotted bell bottoms.)

D. Punt on third down (Coach Fox said a punt is not a bad play. It is on my office wall)

    • Their use of the phrase questionable QB situation fits perfectly. He is stuck, for the moment at least, in a situation with Bryce that he can't really get out of. There have been improvements for Young, but he hasn't been a world changer. He had horrible coaching first year and was saddled with a broken down remnant of what had been an afterthought team anyway. There's one year left to keep him on the cheap with the idea that if he cranks out a great season, we've got first dibs on him for the next. If he tanks out, then off to free agency Young goes to either a QB whisperer-type situation or becomes a fairly battle tested back up QB. And we get something to add into our compensatory picks formulation. This is a make or break year for Young, but not for Morgan or Canales. 
    • If they lose the ECF in wimpy fashion, like anything less than a Game 7, its time to can Rod. 
    • Do you people really give no credence to the fact that Carolina’s went almost two weeks between games while Montreal played an intense seven game series that just ended Monday? That break was too much to be ready to go, and it showed.   The Canes pressed in the first, likely from overzealousness to prove the layoff wasn’t too much. once the Canes settled into their game without pressing, the game was much tighter. Every year, posts in the Panthers forum question how little the starters play in the preseason? Why is that? Because we all know not going at game speed against an opponent can lead to a slow start when the games turn real. Even with prior ECF disappointments, I’m going to hope last night was more akin to starters not playing in the preseason.
