But alternatively, maybe the refs should just not call these borderline slides or out of bounds. If you aren't clearly out/down, then you get hit.
Yeah QB protection is being exploited for sure, they need some protection but can't let players take advantage of the rule. Flopping to draw a call should be a 15 yard unsportsmanlike penalty too.

I'm in favor of both.

Clearly faking a slide or going out of bounds is 15 yards + loss of down.

Fighting through contact or trying to tiptoe the sidelines means you're treated exactly like an RB or WR would be.

I don't know why they should get more protection than other positions, they're rarely put in a vulnerable position.

The reason is they're protected is money. Accountants shouldn't be making the rules for sports.
