RGIII's Movement in the Pocket

Skins against the Bears today in pre-season game #2. We're through the 1st quarter and RGIII is showing two consistent tendencies, one good and one bad.

The good is that under pressure he consistently makes the first guy miss. The bad is that after he makes the first guy miss, he doesn't step up into the pocket, reset, and throw. Instead, he starts scrambling around. RGIII needs to learn that sometimes less movement is more. Peyton Manning, Tom Brady, even Jason Campbell are good at making the first guy miss, then immediately resetting and throwing. RGIII needs to learn this, but he'll get there.

For a classic example of avoid-reset-throw, here's Jason Campbell in 2008 against the Saints. He avoids tremendous pressure, and instantly resets his feet. RGIII hasn't yet shown the ability to do this. Watch from 3:41 in this clip.
