I honestly don't know for sure if this gives the defense an edge or not, though I am going to say probably not.
By the time he says "Go" or "Go Go" the ball has already been snapped and the play is happening. If you are a cornerback that isn't moving and waiting to hear the call, by the time it registers you are probably out of position. A corner is going to be doing a job that was assigned before the "Go" or "Go Go" comes out of Ryan's mouth. Same with linebackers and defensive lineman, if they are waiting to hear what Ryan is going to say they are going to be out of position once they realize it is a run or pass. They have to be doing their job right as the ball is snapped, not a half second or full second later.
So you say the ball is snapped before Go? Interesting. So Pouncey snaps early? Ok. And Go does mean to a DL ignore any playaction just forget the back go after the QB. The Go and Go Go is teachable, should be taught and if it's not then shame on the staff.
