Plenty of QBs had to make adjustments between seasons. His ability to make simple reads extends beyond the borders of knowing one offense.

He's been getting hammered before he has time to even take a look. Defenses don't have to play the run at all. Guy showed today what he's capable of IMO.

he makes way too many mistakes, even with time in the pocket. he's still young, though.

Bc dropped like 4 picks.. One bounced off a bc guys hands that penn st caught for a td. His first pass in OT should have been picked.

Incredibly overrated at this point, but scouts love him and will likely be top 5 or even #1 pick in draft.

Totally agree, game could have been much different if BC corners could catch

Numbers don't lie, Hackenberg was atrocious this season. He had a total QBR of 35.2, pretty much 120 out of 129 qualified qbs. He does have a prototypical NFL QB body and arm strength though.

Nope. You said #1 in the draft. Put your money where your mouth is on this one.

as much as I think he sucks I would be willing to bet you a crisp 100 on that

Amazing how high this guy is going to get drafted. He'll kill at the combine, but at this point he simply can't see the field and get rid of the ball.

He sucked yesterday.

Really, I felt entire Penn st team seemed without any fire in second half; seemed to not have any motivation; almost gave up..!!

Agreed. There is something missing here. His freshman season he was more advanced than Luck at that stage. He makes some high end pro level passes and other times leaves you scratching your head. The most simplest of throws and he is throwing it 3 feet in front of the receiver. He even struggles accurately throwing bubble screens. It's maddening to watch someone with such high end talent. It's hard to conceive that it's a possible he falls out of the first round. I'll take Jared Goff over him.

He looked bad yesterday. I do think psu head coach is one of the worst in college history. The guy is awful.

Will he really get drafted that high if he has another year like last year? I doubt it.

Will be the most successful current college QB in the pros.

Guy lost his entire starting offensive line, 3 of his 4 top pass catchers from last season, and is learning new schemes with an entire new coaching staff. He has no protection at all. Teams runs for like 2 yards a carry. It's really just him trying not to get killed on every snap. Hackenburg will be a stud at the next level though. This year is a learning experience for the entire team. Too many new pieces to be good on that side of the ball. Peyton Manning had a down 3rd year in college as well and he had a million more things going for him than Hackenberg has trying to carry the entire offense on his back.

Haha.
