Yes, QBs ARE overprotected. It must rankle on defensive players. However, the NFL is a business. Guys like Brady and Manning attract eyeballs. Without them, the entertainment value is less. Ya gotta remember that the QB's job description calls for him to stand there defenseless and exposed while the defenders prepare to bring the hit stick.
