    why do we keep running it? sure we had 1 decent run tonite, but 9 times out of 10 it goes for like 2 yards

    scrap it already

    Goodson ripped off a 25 yard gain today. Keeps the defense honest. Don't be surprised if we see Kerley throw out of it later in the season.

    I get that it eases in your rookie QB, but Geno is doing just fine. Had a bad day against Tennessee and in the 4th quarter against New England, but he's doing just fine.

    I don't have a problem with it. It's a different look, the big play is yet to come but I understand throwing a curveball at the D. We will have to throw out of it one of these days.

    It wasn't as bad tonight but it helps limit mistakes.

    but I do hate when they do it too often

    Wildcat is fine, I dont see the issue except when we do it in bad spots

    I liked that they actually handed it off on the end around once. They've also thrown out of it once earlier in the season but it was incomplete. As long as it's not obvious who will have the football I think it has its place.

    Why is the Wildcat such a big deal to some people? It's just one more formation to run out of. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Success depends on timing and execution, same as with every other offensive play.

    The Wildcat is a good option when you have a rookie QB and you want to change the pace a bit.

    The WC is a good option if the Offense is stalled

    Last time I liked it was when Brad Smith was running it. Each time wasn't going to be a snap & run up the middle. They mixed it up a bit to keep the D off balance. I can't stand it now.

    WC is good, we need to use it to limit mistakes.

    The shame of liking the wildcat can never be washed away.
