The time to throw number is brought up a lot as to a quarterback being in a good situation versus a bad situation. Can you differentiate those on time to throw versus holding on to the football? Yeah.
Like Russell Wilson, the, they take sacks, right? The story was, I don't have time to throw, except when you looked at the numbers, he had time to throw, uh, But that could be misleading because he was scrambling out so many times. And that whole Russell Wilson protection, non-protection argument was hilarious because I'd say half the sacks he took were because he was extending plays so much.

And the offensive line didn't know what to do with the block. And that's not even a criticism of it. It's just whenever I see that time to throw stuff, I'll see a quarterback where I think, well, no, he's actually in a bad situation. He's just on the move all the time. And then the other guy has the same time to throw number.

And that is because of, I would say, the product of a good offensive line and good protection. So I don't know that it's clear.

I also think Lamar has an odd thing that may be unlike anybody else. I'm not to say that nobody else does it, where things will completely collapse around him. And with his movement, without intending to run, he will almost get a second pocket. It's a complete reset of then getting to survey the field again. Because he's got the sixth sense.

He doesn't have to move to still avoid everything because he's just that quick, which is which is different than another guy that may clock out at the exact same time. They had three and a half seconds to get this ball out. Wow, look at that great protection. Like, dude, those two snaps were completely different experiences.

That was the best way to make the point. We got there eventually. I don't have more on that, so let's move on to some of the other stuff that is more important here. Real quick, though, because you did mention it, projecting out the MVP, looking at all pro historically, it looked like Lamar was going to get another one of these, and then boom, down in New Orleans, you find out Josh Allen wins MVP.
