Great stuff, stomp!"It's 1 in 92.5 for a QB getting SACKED inside the pocket, not just plays inside the pocket.
Per football outsiders the risk for injury on a designed pass play is 1 in 771 plays.
So 1 in 771 for designed pass
1 in 236 designed QB run
1 in 92.5 getting sacked
1 in 91.7 scramble
1 in 67.3 getting knockdown
So scrambles and designed runs have a higher expected injury risk than a designed pass play, and scrambles are similar to getting sacked in terms of expected injury risk.
Also from PFF, there is a positive correlation between per-dropback sack rate and scramble rate (r=0.44). So mobile QBs are also more likely to get sacked than QBs that don't run.
So from this article he's kinda supporting the argument that running QBs have a higher expected injury risk."
