The thing is that Ben's entire game is built around being difficult to tackle. He holds the ball longer than any QB out there, and somehow he's built an elite game around that style. I would love to have Big Ben as my QB, but would never want a new QB to be trained to play like him.
As I've said before, Geno will have to learn to read defenses and make quick reads. And then use athletic ability as a bailout, not as his first option. But unlike Vick, you want that athletic ability to be used to keep your eyes downfield, not to tuck the ball under and run.
