Unfortunately, we don't have rules dealing specifically with ingnorance and a lack of common sense on the part of the players, but as officials we are entitled to use common sense now and then. I agree with JDLJ. The QB did not do anything that would gain an advantage. I would call it an incomplete pass and let the players suffer the wrath of their coaches.
