With the information he was able to gather, he could identify favorable matchups, hot routes, blitzes, and call for a change in blocking assignments accordingly. That, in and of itself, would be a huge plus as far as sacks go.
The difference is, even with all the extra info from pre-snap reads, Orton still couldn't punch it into the endzone.

If you couldn't tell the offense was more productive with Orton, then you should stop following football.
Orton does have issues in the EZ, but the biggest problem was shitty goal line blocking and running.
