re: Why Does Daniels Get Sacked So Much

JD tries to run and gets pushed out 2 yd behind the LOS

This has started to stand out to me more and more when he does this. I don't know why he doesn't throw the ball away in those situations. This turns a 3rd and 5 into a 3rd an 7 or 8.

ETA: I'm talking specifically about when has scrambled toward the sideline and isn't going to get the corner. Instead of surrendering himself and casually stepping out of bounds, just flip it out of bounds and save to 2-3 yard loss. There is no risk in that scenario. If the defender is on his heels or if he doesn't feel 100% confident, sure hold onto it.
