While it is true what you mentioned, it is also a little misleading. Big Ben will hold, hold, hold, hold, release and splat, thud, boom, and get pummeled. Brady usually does the quick release and still manages to get hit, tho not registered as a sack.
Yes and no, Ben does like to hold onto the ball a lot, but he also is so big and mobile that he avoids a lot of sacks too. So he might get some sacks because he holds onto the ball too long, but he probably has some throws that he got off that would have gotten a pocket passer like Brady killed.
