Maybe this is a dumb question and everyone has this figured out (except for me), but here goes. What would the difference be between the Wildcat run by Pat White and the offense Atlanta had with Vick?

Would there be a disadvantage having Pat White run the offensive for a full game as opposed to having Pennington/Henne QB for most of the game with White running the wildcat only a few times a game?

I realize White is not ready to start and may never be; just trying to understand the Wildcat better and its relative advantages/disadvantages.
 
The difference is they ran a west coast or a vick coast. This lends to his ability to rifle short passes in, do play action, and run around a lot. We run the wildcat which gives you a look of a straight up in your face run which has special instances of pass. This is run first pass second theirs was the opposite. Of course some plays are pass first and vice versa but the main crux of the offense is the other.
 
the difference is the falcons didnt have a running back who could take snaps out of the shotgun and either run the ball or hand it off to THE REAL QUARTERBACK who then can run the ball or throw it 50+ yards and complete a high %. Oh and all this is going on when CP10 is throwing blocks!!!
 
Vick is a better player and that is why he was the 1st pick. Vick ran the West coast offense like someone else said while White ran an option offense where some games he would only throw like 12-15 passes.

AND RAN FOR MORE YARDS THAN ANY QB IN COLLEGE HISTORY. You do know this right?

Oh yeah, Ken Obrien, Tony Eason, Todd Blackledge, Jim Kelley, And John Elway were all selected before Marino...............I'm just sayin......
 
under vick the offense would be called the "wilddog"

White in 2008 averaged 20 passes (attempted) per game.
 
Vick sucks because he was never a dolphin.

Nope, Vick sucks cause he is a murdering pig. Get off this whole Vick vs White thing, dude. They never really grasped how to use Vick to his best abilities in the NFL, but we have with the wildcat and now he isn't in the league anymore. So **** him. We don't need him or want him.
