He will stand back there all day until he's forced to break the pocket. When he does that, the defense has to react, and it's given someone time to work their way open. I don't have a break down on the numbers but there has to be a disparity on his passing yards in the pocket and outside the pocket. That's why he throws for that many yards and TDs. As soon as he takes off the defense has to be prepared for his running ability.
He's not the kind of guy that will drop back and pick you apart from the pocket. It's ALL based on his running ability.

Nice posts both of you. Lamar will be the toughest QB we have faced this year by far, but we know how to play him.
He is playing great right now, if he beats us throwing the football so be it. That is how you play him, don't let him beat
you with his legs. It isn't rocket science, as Rfaulk said, it is ALL based on his running ability. Scares the shit out of Defenses
as it should. He is the best running QB maybe ever after all.
