Respectfully, I disagree strongly.

I was at the game where Trent Green slid, took a hit, and the concussion was so bad it changed the entire trajectory of his career. Also happened to RG3, who got lit up a lot when opted to run the ball.

Dislike the slide rule, but it exists for a very good reason. Also, it benefits the QB of your team too.

I'd also argue that protecting QB's is good for football in general. No one wants to watch the Colt McCoys, or Curtis Painters, or Dan Orlovskys starting games.
