Look at a stopwatch when a QB throws a wr screen or quick hitch or slant.  The ball will often leave his hand in less than a second.

Now look at the stopwatch when a qb takes a seven step drop and make his reads to throw a deep ball.  It will take a lot longer for the ball to leave his hand than when he throws an immediate QB screen or quick slant.

We're talking about an average. Many times he has to wait or scramble to throw the ball. Some short throws might take 4 seconds. W'ERE TALKING ABOUT AVERAGE TIME TO THROW. PUT A STOP WATCH ON IT . DONT JUST TALK OUT OF YOUR ASS.

The math even shows the time for short throws is the same.
