Why does my QB always throw to the back?

My QB is like Tom Brady, always throwing to the stinkin RB! I don't want it to go to the RB i want the WRs and TEs involved. How do i fix it up proper?

https://gridiron-boys.myfootballnow.com/watch/451#78450- strange play.. no pressure on the QB and the play calls for the RB to stay back and block. The weak side TE is flat open and the QB throws to the RB at the line of scrimmage for a completion lol.
https://gridiron-boys.myfootballnow.com/watch/451#78465-same play on next possession with almost exact same outcome.
https://gridiron-boys.myfootballnow.com/watch/451#78477- here it is again but it works this time for 52 yards
https://gridiron-boys.myfootballnow.com/watch/451#78460- same thing with throwing to the line of scrimmage

Seems like him running Goal Line Attack #3 vs all your 2wr sets is causing the QB to throw the ball to the line of scrimmage even if that player (rb/fb) is supposed to be blocking. I'm not going through every play for you but just in the first few series I can see this in your last game. It's strange because there is no route being ran and there isn't any pressure on the QB to throw it away at the feet of the line.. which maybe the rb would catch a few of those.. but that's not what it should be doing.

3-6-DEN 38 (7:14) (Hot Read) 2-Matthew Stinson pass complete to 49-Abraham Jones to DEN 34 for -4 yards. Tackle by 51-Harry Abram

Thats a hot read, which i think it throw to the inner and deepest guy who is not covered. The hot read was added years ago to combat heavy blitzers. You still have more guys coming than blocking so the back was pulled off his original assigned duty and went out for a pass.

New pass algorithms and other changes since seems to have made the effectiveness super sensitive. A few thing goes into getting hot reads even to work then ...now they work like this
