Defending the Wildcat..

Last year, we typically ran the QB out to a WR spot. This year, he's usually off the field entirely. One seldom mentioned aspect of the formation, used this way, is that it gives us an extra blocker. If everyone's executing their assignments, an extra blocker is an edge.

We have hardly thrown out of it this year. I think the 21-yard completion early in the Jets game might have been the first time all year. One other play, it was clearly designed as a pass and Ronnie threw it away.

80% of the time, it's going to be Ricky to the right, or Ronnie up the middle or to the right. Occasionally Ronnie goes left behind one blocker, if you're swarming to the other side too much. And once in a great while it's a reverse to Ginn or a pass. At least, that's what it's been so far.
