Honestly, I'm asking because I can't say that I've seen a lot of this this year. I'm sure there are a handful of these that he's probably the culprit because he didn't get rid of the ball when he should have, but I'd guess off the top of my head that is maybe 4 sacks?
I could be totally mistaken, and if anyone knows please share.

Well, I know of at least one. He admitted that the last sack he took against Cleveland he took so the clock would keep running, and for Cleveland to burn a time out.
There are a few that I think he could of gotten rid of. I cant remember if it was week one, or week two against dallas where he ran out of bounds and it was considered a sack, he only lost like a yard, but he could of thrown it away.
He doesn't want to turn the ball over.
I do wish for the safety of himself that he took more chances to throw it away though.
