Let Pat make plays with his legs and moving around to throw the ball, fine. But he's just too important to take the risks IMO. I understand both sides of the argument, but to me, I want him in the pocket as much as possible.

He's at his most deadly when he's out of the pocket. You can take away the option, but then what? Take away the scramble too?
I just think it's silly to believe you can keep him from getting hit sometimes. We've taken away the sneak. People want to take away the option now. Might as well remove the scramble. And then teams will just know he's gonna sit back there in the pocket, and he'll inevitably take a big hit back there and get hurt.
You just can't protect him in all situations.
