This is from my cellphone...footage is not the best, but the wildcat looks pretty tight. It's better than what I imagined.

I don't understand these videos. (no blond comments thank you )

What exactly is it of?

cool

Wildcat is one of the traditional Football formation from when Football originated. It was brought back to the NFL last year by the Miami Dolfish when they played the Patriots and beat them with it literally. It wasnt a common formation and therefore New England didnt have an answer for it. It's where the RB lines up in the backfield as a QB, and another RB is beside him. The real QB is either a WR, or off the field...and you run numerous plays out of it...option style plays.

With the NFL being a copy cat league, other teams during the season adopted it, and started using it. Madden has since added the formation to the game. In the clip above. Felix Jones is taking the first snap in video 1, while Marion Barber is the one handing off to Felix in the second video. Dallas' version is called "Razorback". The formation came back to popularity a couple of years ago when the Arkansas Razorbacks began running it exclusively with Darren McFadden. Felix Jones was on that same team. No one in the NFL, had thought about taking it seriously or even trying it on the pro level, b/c it was just another form of the option, and the option is non existent in the NFL due to the speed of all the players. Miami took the league by storm, and caught them off guard. How can you defend something you've never seen?

Dallas' package or version, the "Razorback", has links to Jerry Jones, being an Arkansas native, and also went to Univ of Arkansas....just as Felix Jones.

The formation at Univ Arkansas was actually called "Wild-Hog" oppose to "Wildcat".
