Agreed completely.

You can't play QB like a battering ram. There are times to run and make the big play, but you have to know when to go down or out of bounds. The risk/reward is not always worth it. It can be fun to watch and I'm sure Giants fans get hyped up when Dart/Skat make a big run/truck someone, but that is not sustainable.....at all.

I know people like to say the NFL is "soft" nowadays and protects QB's too much, but I have ZERO issue with protecting QB's as no one wants to see 10+ backups playing QB each week. We all love to see the big hits, but you don't want to see the big injuries.
i'll never forgive Kyle for running QB Power Dives with Trey Lance MULTIPLE times a game. :pacspit:

There is the GM'ing ad coaching aspect of it, but the QB also has to know when to go down or out of bounds. Maye has taken a lot of sacks this year, but that's because he's trying to extend plays in the pocket. When he gets out of the pocket and actually runs, he's been much better going down. You can't put your QB at risk like that, period.

I could be wrong but watching how Daboll has interacted with him, watching how Daboll interacted with I think Stroud before the draft, he’s a pompass lil fukker so I think Maye’s recklessness is a reflection of the coach. Doesn’t strike me as the ‘hey be safe we care about you’ type of coach.

Also factor in Daboll had Josh Allen so he probably got spoiled by having a 6’5 240 QB.
