Envision a situation where you do not know who of Dobbs, Hurd, or Kamara is taking a snap. If it is Dobbs he can pass or hand off or take off with those two blocking. It would be a 3 headed monster. Put the TE's in too to block or catch a dump pass and it would be nearly impossible to cover all the blockers and tackle the ball carrier.When you have a QB who is a dual threat like Dobbs, I don't see how taking the ball out of his hands on the snap does anything except give the defense one less thing to worry about. When ever we used it in the past whoever gets the ball just takes off running like some school playground play. It never goes anywhere. unless there is some threat of him passing or handing off or something, it just seems to telegraph that he is getting the ball and running with it.
