I was worried a little before the game if he would be as tough as DW4 was against Bama. After rewatching the game it is clear that he was. I did not realize how many shots he took standing in the pocket and delivering dimes. Our line did a great job but it's not like he wasn't getting hit on many throws. Doing that against Bama takes some guts.
I don't remember the receiver, perhaps Jerry Rice, said

many years ago: You know you are gonna get hit anyway, so you might as well catch the ball." Same with throwing it, I guess. I would not want to find out firsthand, my limited FB experience was to be the one hitting the QB, not taking the hit. I mostly played left end (of the bench).
