Seattle has let Washington hang around in this one. So many penalties (most of them legit).
I think they need to be protected somewhat. They are arguably the most important player on the field. A lot like goalies in hockey. I think that protection should end when they decide to run like a rb. Honestly if these guys got hit every time they left the pocket then they would think twice about it. I just think it's quite the advantage for a scrambling qb to be able to slide and not be touched.
