Serious question....
If it is so effective, why are the Dolphins 2-3?
Is this really a serious question?
The Dolphins have the #1 rushing attack in the NFL. Now to answer your "serious" question, they also have the #26 passing attack in the NFL.
That should help explain how it's not exactly the running game that has Miami at 2-3 right now.

Whys would they be expected to beat the Saints with it when they lost to 3 already and almost lost to another
Who said they were expected to beat the Saints in this thread???

The 2009 Fins are the mirror image of the 2008 Saints, except they rely on the run. We were the No.1 passing team and went 8-8.
The premise behind the question is legit. Yes, the Fins make the Wildcat work, but the Falcons, Chargers and Colts stopped the wildcat enough to win. When you rely on the running game, one holding call pretty much is a drive killer and that's is what has been happening.
Expect a lot of holding calls on the Fins this Sunday. McCray, Smith and Grant will be in full force and the OL can't let Henne get hit (they have no one behind him).
One last thing, Williams has been able to design schemes to stop the rushing attacks of the Jets and Giants (two teams that have very good running games); There's absolutely no reason to believe that he won't come up with a plan to slow down the wildcat. Its the defense's week to shine...once again.
