A "no" wouldn't suffice because its not the truth and you know perfectly well that I've already mentioned 2 teams.
Its impossible to know or list every team from pop warner to highschool to college to the NFL that uses the wishbone formation and doesn't run the option.
It spurious reasoning to ask the for a list of teams when simple football logic tells the truth of my statement.
Teams use almost every formation over the course of a season, but you know what most teams don't do? Bingo, most teams don't run option.
Your question is a pointless and spurious as me asking you: to name some teams that use the wishbone formation to run the option?
-Obviously some teams do you use the wishbone formation to run option, I don't need a list of teams to know the football validity of that statement.
But to be clear
ANY team that uses the wishbone formation and doesn't run the option from is relevant because that was the discussion myself andf REDSKINSEVER were having.
ANY team that uses the wishbone formation and doesn't run the option from the wishbone disproves REDSKINSEVER claim.
If my word isn't good enough here's a blurb:

The long-forgotten (at least in the NFL) three-back set.
That's right. According to ESPN Stats & Information, Packers rookie tailback James Starks averaged 7.6 yards on eight carries in either the wishbone or inverted wishbone formation, accounting for 61 of his 123 yards. He had 62 yards on his other 15 carries.
During the regular season, NFL teams ran the ball out of a three-back set 34 times. The Packers accounted for 20 of them, utilizing a preseason roster decision to carry three fullbacks on their 53-man roster.

Just in case you don't remember Aaron Rodgers wasn't running the option that day.
Once again, cheers-
