Hybrid Wildcat?

Recommended Posts

This is a terrible idea.

 

edit: To expand, we saw last year that the wildcat for us was a mediocre running play at best, esp. in the 2nd half of the season.  While Webb may find his way onto the field, I am never in favor of taking the ball completely out of Cam's hands and using him as a distraction. He is our biggest playmaker.

 

Well, in fairness most of our running plays last year were mediocre.  Our average was a rather pedestrian 4.2 per carry, and that is with our quarterback averaging over 5 a carry and getting 5-7 carries a game. 

 

Personnally, i don't have a problem with running the wildcat once or twice a game.  Although I would like to see it run differently, with the rb lining up under center in a short yardage situation, or even throwing it once in a while just to keep the defense honest.

Shula actually had some nice trick plays last year. Our wildcat plays sucked tho, mainly cuz they were way too predictable and DeAngelo was never, ever going to throw it.

 

Maybe he'll get more creative with a dynamic QB/Weapon like Webb.

 

Not a bad idea OP.

We could definitely do some amazing stuff in packages involving Cam and Joe. Both can run, throw (not sure about Webb...) and catch well. If we had a creative OC we could definitely make history with those 2.

I think he was signed as insurance and definitely he will be key on the scout team, when facing Seattle, San Francisco and now Johnny Football.

and he did kickoffs?  he can't be a bad guy to have around on the scout team.  looks like he can do a little bit of everything.

4.2 is not pedestrian.
