Why don't the Falcons just run.....
#5
It's hard to run the option in the NFL with athletes acroos the board like they have. The option is all about reading tackles and ends. Well when you have a defensive end/tackle who is quick enough to take both people then you find yourself in quite a pickle. Also teams in the NFL pursue the football so well with linebackers that are fast as most running backs it would be awfully hard on a team even one with Vick runing the show. I think the best bet would be a speed option out of a shotgun formation, but I don't think you can pitch on the end, with out Vick getting boed up. You'll have to reach the end with a tackle and pitch on next man (probabley a LB), but not many DE's will let a tackle reach them espically against Atlanta.
