I think that's what people are interpreting it as, Ronnie Brown is playing QB and they run the option with him, it varies each time but essentially thats it, same thing Boldin and the Cardinals are using tonight.

well, Rexy would kill Ron Turner with a pass into the booth upstairs if there werent at least 2 guys running a streak

They should play "Sex Gun" by KISS whenever Sexy Rexy throws a deep pass.

I thought the raiders would use this more since McFadden has ran the system way more than any other player in the NFL. McFadden at QB and Fargas and Bush at RB, seems like it would be decent

idk why they dont try it, its not like anything would be worse than what is going on right now.
i think they need to take advantage of Jamarcus' ability to throw the deep ball.

The Wildcat is just further proof that the NFL is a copycat league. And if defenses really do start spending time preparing for trick plays they'll see a couple times tops per game, then it's worked.

I'm not saying anything is wrong with the Wildcat, I'm saying if defenses start working on how to defend it during the week, that's taking away time to work on more important scenarios in a football game.

Football is a copy cat game. The first thing my college coach told him is he put together his playbook, using stuff he saw from three of our rival teams.

Yeah? Well the Packers did it back in 1998 with some guy named Favre. :D
I really cant see LaMont doing much out of it besides having an extra split second to find a hole.

thats what i would do. I would take a little bit out of every successful offense i could find.
I would run some spread offense and you have some of your pro style, lots of play action. dives and also have the stretch plays. and then im going to throw in the wildcat because if you have the athletes that can make plays....get em the ball.

haha true. I bet Brett would have caught it and taken it to the house too; if it was an absolutely perfect throw and there was no one around for 30 yards of course.
