What else can they do lol. Its a trick formation that is pretty simple to defend. As long as the defense doesnt freelance and set up something for the offense it should be shutdown everytime. Either the "Wildcat QB" takes the snap and runs, tosses the ball to another player, or he throws. So as long as the defense fills the running lanes and the DBs just stick with their man and arent faked out the success rate is very slim for the Wildcat.
Any time you take the QB out of a snap and let someone else handle the football its a good thing for the defense. The Wildcat and all its BS had its great moments like in the Dolphins/Pats game but as the season went on and teams gameplanned for it the Wildcat became a non-factor.
