If you give him 4+ seconds on most down, in the pocket, he's going to find someone open and he has the arm talent to complete most of those throws.
You're correct but he breaks the will of teams when he gets outside and on the run, making something out of nothing. Plus, staying in the pocket and pushing off on that ankle was something they needed to see before sending the house. They tried to get to him with 4 the first half and had 2-3 blitzes picked up but just failed. Knowing they had a couple new receivers plus the ankle swelling up and being tired so they were able to bring more and cause far more havoc in the 2nd half.
