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)

    • Basically agree.  He is the one of that bunch that offers upgraded pass catching along with he is supposed to be kind of special.   Then you have the OL and the ideas that if they perform you can have JAG backs and still do well. So okay we could be fine.  But Brooks is important and to me that receiving element sets him apart.  So there sure is something riding on him.     What strikes me as incongruent is people over in Atlanta or those that follow them look at Penix with a third surgery and act like it is no big deal.      And we are on pins and needles over Brooks.  Either they should worry a lot more or we should worry a lot less.  
    • I usually go a game or two optimist over the consensus here but this is too early for me to say. I need to see some players on the field.  I am not feeling real optimistic though.  
    • Okay as a ‘take CJ’ fan I actually don’t obsess over CJ and Houston, contrary to the narrative.  But I thought I picked up some noise that his OL left a lot to be desired.    Not a single Beyce supporter would judge him harshly if he had a crappy OL. We all know that.    So be fair about it.  A QB needs to be protected.  Especially a guy that gets to his spot and wants to finish the play from there. Which CJ is.
