****, even that play that Mooch drew up for Geno could technically be described as a 1 read play if the QB dumps off the flat initially by observers. In fact, the "check down" is designated as the first read. Most people don't understand that.
There are 1 read plays, and then there are plays that look like they have 1 read because of the design and how they are used. ****, even Rich Rodriguez, who supposedly only uses 1 read systems has screen plays that are 2 and 3 reads with the screen being the 3rd option.

IMO, people get confused with QB's and "reads". For teh most part, your reads are done before the snap. When you have to go to second reads, third reads, it's usually when defenses go exotic and fool you. It's why you don't see Brady, Brees, etc go to a second read alot, they don't get confused very often.
The hardest things for rookies are pre snap IMO and when they actually have to make reads. I'd venture to say from watching this year, Cam, RGIII, and Wilson didn't go to their 2 read too many times.
