Some of it could be typical preseason vanilla offense.
But.....I read more than a couple time in the press since Gruden was hired this offseason that they want RGIII to get rid of the ball quicker and avoid the sack and worse. I have to agree with this. The risk/reward of holding the ball long enough to go through all of your reads is not always worth it on a constant basis. They might be trying to break him of bad habits by exagerating an early release at this point (preseason). Depending on defense and situation they face, it will vary.
