You can’t throw a pass to an OL (unless he reports as an eligible receiver, but most of them have hands of stone). The defense knows that. If there are two TE, they have to also be wary of the pass.
They're also typically more mobile which helps with trying to reach block an outside defender.
There was nothing wrong with the formation. The problem was in the execution.

Without any context it’s hard to know if this is just in general or are you referring to the play where Pimpton missed his block and Emery was tackled immediately?
yeah that might have been the play.
I'm pretty sure that was a quick snap play with no subs so that is what you have to do there. But also, a two-tight-end set is a benchmark option alignment so on a 3 to-go scenario. It forces the defense to account for those guys as a receiver and not sell out on the run.
