I know what Zorns said, but 1) I dont necessarily beleive it would be advantageous for him to advertise it if we planned to use it and 2) we would use the wildcat if we had Vick.

Man, you love to speculate.

I'd rather go with what we know, Zorn has been pretty adamant in saying he has no plans in putting in the wildcat. If he hasn't studied it properly do you really think he's going to install it on the fly just for Vick, when he really doesn't seem to believe in it and has shown zero interest in it to date?

I thought when Zorn was asked this question about the Wild Cat it was like mid season of last yr and he stated he was not interested. Some coach's tried it after they saw the success Miami had other who had not had time to study it chose not to use it. I wonder if Zorn was not going to step out of his little box and throw something new at a team who was trying to learn a new offense from the start. Now that he's had 6 months to review and see if it can work for the Skins would he use it?

Maybe I missed a more recent statement by him but as we all know this is a copy cat league. Rumor has it Belacheat has studied it over the off season cause he was impressed with what Miami did to him and wants to be able to not only stop it but use it against Miami.

Our running game was our strongest suit so if it still is this yr I would like to see more play action and maybe some flee flickers.

This is what he said in May

Re: Vick conditionally reinstated by NFL (updated)

Wildcat = gimmick/fad offensive set
Vick = one-dimensional gimmick/fad QB

Both will not help the Skins at all. I'm hoping and praying Zorn and Cerrato stand by their words concering the Wildcat/Vick.
