I've used UV filters as protection for years mainly because my primary subject was Rally cars on gravel. I have had a few chipped or broken but it has protected the lens in each case. It also does the 'finger print and dust' protection thing.
I've used both Marumi and Hoya over the years, both are excellent.

But regard UV fiters as sacrificial, they do take hits and scratches but at least they are cheaper to replace than scatched lenses.
