I HATE empty backfield formations...almost every coach will send an extra defender and even if the pass gets off in time, Dalton often takes a shot.  Not only that, but the DBs don't sit back on the routes, they are up on the LOS and try to jump what they know is a quick pattern.

If they insist on these formations, why not at least have one of the receivers go in motion, a la jet sweep...it gives the defense a split second to determine if the ball was handed off before teeing off on Dalton and if AD does hand it off/toss it forward, it can often turn in to a big play if no one stays with the man in motion.
