However any of the more traditional running playbooks do not allow me to actually get some sort of a passing game going. What happens in I formation is that I run 3,4 or 5 plays and if I then want to pass my qb is already sacked before he's ready for a throw. Only thing that works somewhat is a PA rollout pass. how do you manage that?

Running the ball to set up play action. Having a good ground game is key to getting the pass going. Not just running a couple times into the line, then PA pass, you need to be successful at it
