Even sliding puts your QB and thus franchise at risk. I would hate for us to have a repeat of 2015, have a QB that is tearing it up all season long. Only to get injured (the mobile QB's case it would be more serious and more possible) part way through the season or at the end of it, only to have to throw in our back up and pray that he can get the job done. It would suck to be 1 and done in the playoffs again just because our QB couldn't make it through a season.
