If the QB holds the ball a long time he is likely to take a lot of sacks.

True

What’s also true is half the season Milroe was retreating 10 yards deep in the pocket and taking sacks on wide angle pass rushes that no one should ever take, especially a mobile QB who can exploit the loss of gap contain.

Expecting a TF LT to protect elite edge guys when you aren’t stepping up in the pocket is death for an offense.
