I don't think it's a legal formation because there aren't enough players on the right side. Nice idea though.

It's unfortunate, because it actually should be a legal formation although the left tackle would be eligible and the inside TE would not be. Football rules state that any player on the line of scrimmage can snap the ball (except maybe the ends, not sure), so Madden has an extra limitation here.

P.S. use the CODE tag for formations so we can tell who's lined up behind who.

If you place one of your tight ends back on the left side this would be a good formation if you run with Vick. Motion the left tight end to the right but have him block back inside once he passes the right tight end, have all three backs block far right and they will pick off anything coming around the end and just run to the right with Vick. But the key with running with Vick once your spint to the right pause him as you get to the end of the line this will make the linebackers try to come up through the line to get him then take back off and usually the will be traped. I ran a similar formation last season and in a 5min game I averaged about 700-800 yards a game with Vick.
