How many times did we seem them bootleg or roll him out in some fashion only to connect with a receiver in medium-to-deep passes in preseason and earlier in his starts? We've speculated about the reasons why he's regressed some, but his mobility in the pocket and legs seem to be a huge asset that they aren't utilizing. 

 

The problem is you have to run the ball well for it to work. It probably would have done fine a few games ago when Denard was killing it, but yesterday the run got stuffed pretty well.

 

If you're not able to sell the run then the backside DE can just come after the QB when he rolls out, which happened a couple of times yesterday.
