That's all fine and great, but what happens when athletic QBs start faking like they're getting ready to slide, then making a move and turning on the jets?

I could be incorrect ? But I believe I've heard that discussed in the past and QB's have been instructed that's a no-no. Not that it will stop one from trying it one day.
