@ChrisRaymond56 NFL= Not For Long for a reason my guy. Bledsoe was the starting qb until he got injured and some 6th rd pick took the job. Yes dart was a 1st rd pick but so was JJ.
Not in todays nfl you dont. You get 1 step. If you touch the qb on step 2 you are getting a flag. The nfl has made it clear they want a league with healthy qbs. Lions got a roughing for a thumb touching loves helmet as an example. You cannot touch the qb in the pocket unless he has the ball. And even then you have to gently put him to the ground.
