Remember "trust in Rex/Tanny"? Gholston will be a sack monster? Neil O'Donnell's off-season signing just elevated the Jets to Super Bowl contenders? Bubby Brister is the answer? Blair Thomas' fumble on MNF won't effect his performance the rest of the year/career? Chad Pennington is the "next Joe Montana"? Steve Gutman is a genius? Terry Bradaway must be kept as a draft consultant because of his visionary approach and aplomb to evaluating NFL prospects? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you go against the grain, you better be the smartest guy in the room. Can't fire a guy over one missed pick. Everybody misses here and there. I agree that you should never reach, but Tannenbaum did that for years before he was kicked to the curb. I will say that this seasons draft is huge for Macc. If he misses this year there will be no reason to retain him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jet_Engine1 Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 If Blaize had been taken in the third or fourth round, nobody would care. He would be a mid round pick, development QB project. But he was taken in the second. Before a lot of guys who have actually, like, played and contributed already. Not Hacks fault, he's as much a victim in this as anyone. But now he's a second rounder, a "High Pick". Hell, HE might even believe he has an actual future as an NFL QB. And that's just mean. Savage, MacCagnan. Savage......

drsamuel84 Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 everyone was so worried that putting Hack into a game without being ready was going to kill his confidence. Ironically, it's looking like the opposite. The media has nothing to write about the guy b/c they haven't seen him so they take the easy click bait approach of killing the kid and quoting anonymous sources. I just hope he's able to rise above it and NY doesn't kill him before he has a chance to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerfish Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 The Curious Case of Christian Hackenburg (Sounds like a Sherlock Holmes novel) The Player: This guy was shot before even being drafted. He was a big high school recruit did okay in his 1st year in college (Not fantastic, okay. 20tds, 10 ints and 59% comp rating). Due to circumstances beyond his control (talent leaving and scholarship limits) and a new coaching regime he got the stuffing kicked out of him for the next two years and regressed badly probably hurting his mechanics, pocket presence etc. (Comp% decreased to 56, then 54%) QB's that become 'shot' after this kind of thing almost never recover. There may be the odd example of guys coming into the league having a rough go and then recovering but many don't the classic example being David Carr. His performance in the Ex season overall was awful. He did have one nice drive and one nice td pass, I'll give him that but other than that it was a picture into what we have, 37 and 35% comp ratings in his two games, games which have simple plays and simple plans on both sides of the ball. The GM Who Drafted The Player: Cardinal sins #1 and #2: Don't fall in love with risk players and let the draft come to you do not chase the draft. Even our esteemed John Idzik knew this one, he wanted Geno Smith but didn't fall for the temptation to take him at 9 or 13. He let the draft come to him and took Geno in the 2nd round. Macagnan fell in love with a risk player, the risks were not minor blips easily swept aside and he let the 'upside' attributes over rule the huge risk factors. He fell into the trap of thinking he was going to get a steal but then over drafting the player making it a reach instead of a 'we can;t believe he was still on the board' steal. He should have known better, he was part of the team that drafted David Carr who like Hackenbrug got the stuffing beat out of him and became shot. He was part of the team that drafted Tom Savage because he was big and had a good arm and had faced big turbulence in college. The Plan: There never was a 'plan'. People trumpet that he was going to be red shirted from day one (a term you NEVER hear in the pros). It's also not really correct from the words of Mac right after the draft, he said they would not force the guy too early and would see how things go, after seeing him a few times they locked into the red shirt theme. Merely sitting a guy out for a full year is NOT a plan. There has to be things that go along with that, working on his deficiencies diligently, as he progresses bit move him up the depth chart. (3 garbage QBs in front of him,) , give him at least some mop up duty when the opportunity arises at the end of the year. Nope! We also now see that Gailey already had one foot out the door and the fact that we had 3 terrible QBs in front of Hackenburg, the OC and the QB coach were going to have their hands full. (Just epic that the team with perhaps the worst QBing in the league carried 4 QBs on the roster all year but only dressed two of them.) We were forced to carry Hackenbrug on the roster instead of the psqusd simply because he was a 2nd round pick. And then we complain that the ST coach had no quality bottom of roster st guys. The player was shot, the GM way over drafted a guy with serious problems, the coaches just shuffled him to the back and there was no legit plan for his development. The Jets out Jets'd themselves on this one. I still like Macaganan over all but his fate now rests squarely on whether he can find a decent to good starter in the next two years to make everyone forget about monumental team gaff. As for Manish? He's a sheer and utter putz but I have no doubt what he is saying is the truth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shuler82 Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 I like Hack. Same can't be said about post-Star Ledger Manish. I was also in my seats early for the last game of the year vs the Bills and saw Hack warm up. He was repeatedly missing WRs in simply timing drills. I hope beyond hope that Hack turns out to be the real deal, but I also don't rule out this report not being true just because it's another one of Manish's anonymous sources speaking out.

Jack Straw Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Everyone should good rewatch every throw from Hackenberg's pre-season performances. When his lower body was working as it should (stepping into throws), he looked very much like a starting QB. Unfortunately, he was consistently flat-footed/falling backwards/standing still in clean pockets, and was highly erratic because of it. It takes 10,000+ throws (Gailey's words) to correct these issues, and then we have to see if the muscle memory actually works when there are bodies flying around his feet in live action. 10,000+ throws means he needs to be throwing 100 passes a day for 100 days. If he throws 100 balls/day, five days a week, that means he'd need five months to get his mechanical issues fixed in time for 2017. If he started working on his issues starting January 1st, it's not impossible for him to show up looking much different in Minicamp in May/June.

Also this article is not based on him not playing but is stating that several sources say he is terrible. Players do not get better merely by sitting out. Its simple. Anonymous sources saying a player will never make it, without any explanation as to why should be ignored. There is no credence to it- especially if the kid had not gotten a chance to get on the field and show what he can do. It would be one thing if he was playing and stinking it up. Then you could argue, okay, anonymous or not, they are obviously basing their opinion on his play. But this has no merit. What are they basing this on? Practice? A few quarters last pre-season. His college career? I mean, seriously. Everyone deserves to have their opinion, that's fine, but if you are so sure of yourself that you are ready to sink another player, put your name to it, coward. Otherwise, you deserve to be ignored. He's also not 'shot'. The Carr comparison is inaccurate. Carr was drafted #1 overall. Not late in the second round. Carr had a great college career. He was 'shot' after getting beaten top a pulp on the Texans who could not protect him- AT ALL. Hack, as odd as it may seem, is in a better situation in the NFL (even on the Jets). And, if anything, the GM has his back. So you can expect Macc to provide Hack with a solid oline before he puts him out there and actually give Hack a shot instead of him being buried on the depth chart. Ye have little faith. Hack is a talented, hard working, smart kid. He may turn out to be a total bust, but he has all the qualities you look for in a Franchise QB, which is why Macc drafted him. Also, suggesting that there is NO PLAN, based off nothing, is pretty silly. Macc has a plan. You may not know what it is. But he's not a complete moron. Let's give him some credit. It may be a fluid plan. But there's certainly a plan. The way he scouted QBs, the way he committed to sitting Hack, even if it meant carrying 4 QBs. There is DEFINITELY a plan.You don't draft a QB in the 2nd round without some sort of plan in mind for his development. Now, the plan might be, if he doesn't show a certain level of progress, we may need to change course, or something to that extent. But Macc is not a complete idiot. He wouldn't be where he is if he was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Hackenberg is to be successful, it will be despite the Jets doing everything in their power to sabotage him. With the CBA, it's not like the Jets could work with him during the off-season anyway, so it's up to him to get a QB tutor in place and put in the required work to get his issues corrected.

SMC Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 It must be the culture at the Daily News because they have a bunch of aholes writing in their sports section (the NBA writers are ridiculous) and Manish used to be good before he went there. The anonymous rips are more problematic for the franchise than Hack. Hack is what he is and the team is going to give him a public chance to sink or swim. So it's on him. It's just concerning that certain individuals (even if in the minority) in the organization, including players, are willing to rip a 21 yr old rookie.
