I tend to agree with Garvin here. I think the wildcat formation (or Sequoia, as the more enlightened called it) was equally maligned. Gaffney averaged seven to ten yards from that formation. Any play that is that successful should obviously be kept in the playbook, but fans and analysts alike were critical because it took the ball out of Andrew Luck's hands. (Admittedly, I wasn't too excited to see it called in the fourth quarter of the Fiesta Bowl, but that's another story.)

I think Gaffney suffered in the same way. He produced, but wasn't flashy. Wilkerson was flashy, but didn't produce. My point was simply that as good as Gaffney was, there are enough horses in the stable to keep things going without him.
