Because Blount is a complete liability in pass protection. If he's in the game, teams tend to simply overload one side of the line and attack Freeman. They can even do this while running a run blitz because they can drop an extra man into the box. They know that by overloading, Freeman won't have time to set up a deep route, so they can both blitz the hell out of Freeman while also keying on Blount.
Blount's complete apathy in pass-pro has made him a liability as an every down back.
