If you forced him to stay in the pocket he couldn't beat you with his arm. For whatever reason teams thought it was smart to try and pressure him, and it wasn't. Chavis was pretty genius here, just let him sit back in the pocket and he had no idea what to do against us.

And why did he have 20 seconds to throw the ball? Because he was scrambling around the backfield avoiding 3-5 defenders while his receivers got open. The vast majority of QBs would've taken a sack or thrown the ball away.
Go back and watch his tape. His OL was good but there were multiple instances were the defenders broke through the OL and he had make a play out of nothing.
