The secret to Miami's wildcat is that their o-line blocks like it's a normal Power-O run with a QB under center, only they're snapping directly to a tailback and giving him a read with the jetback running through.

If he sees a seam he keeps, if he doesn't he hands. It's basic but I guess thats why it works so well.

It's not an option. Brown isn't reading anything. It's not the read-option, think Vince Young, where he's reading the D-end. Its a called play with Brown running off tackle or he's handing off to Williams. Brown carries much more often than he hands off. The Miami version is nothing more than getting an extra blocker in the game to put a hat on a hat. The numbers are even. It's the single wing with a motion man. It's fricking basic as shite. That's why everyone runs that same shite in 6 yr old football. The key is tackling well. Harper will brought to line to put an extra defender in the box. It's like watching pee wee football.
