Ohio State at Virginia Tech
- Thread starter PennStateNate
- Start date
He's decent but Hack is better. Just needs that level of protection. Hack will cash in at the next level. Jones won't
I know it's early... But look at the variety of plays and formations involved with OSU's first drive. It doesn't appear like CJ is getting any adequate time to throw... But he throws it DOWN FIELD !!!!!!!
That's an offense....
PSU really has a LONG way to go...

Love Hack, but no way. Jones at 250 can run like a deer and also has a rocket arm that is more accurate and this is his 4th start.
Guess the old "toe in, heel out catch" is still only a catch for Michigan.
Also a QB that was able to read the blitz and stil not only get rid of it when a blitzer came in perfectly clean, but threw a TD pass LMAO.
Agreed..its the accuracy and mobility that separates Cardale. He's not fast, but creates his own time and throws well on the run, which Hack does horribly.
Let's face it...Hack"s accuracy is still a problem as we enter year 3. Not sure it will get much better

Shouldn't you be ranting about the officiating? You're a two-trick pony, but haven't deviated all day from ripping on CH.
No, it's impossible, when the other team blitzes and one of their players comes in clean, completely unblocked, the only choice the QB has is to run into his arms and go to the ground.
Ezekiel Elliot just wrapped up the Heisman
Don't count out Jones.. He is really that good.
QB draw off a jail-house break blitz for a TD - another play we can't run because of our QB
Go figure.....
Go figure.....
Ahia State's first 2 TDs against jailbreak blitzes with VaTech blitzers running free in backfield &
....made plays making them pay for the overly aggressive blitzing with TDs on both plays - go figure.

Well I'm guessing OSU fans don't care whether Jones cashes in at the next level. As a PSU fan I want Hack doing well now, for our team. Don't care about the next level.
Yeah, I never understood that either to be honest. I guess its nice to say he came from Penn State.
Entire left side of tO$U line gets called for holding - would that get called in b1g?
Too funny, but fairly typical of a b1g team and bull$hit blocking techniques that never get called in this league.

You can't argue with this guy. He takes a nugget of truth (e.g., that PSU often gets hosed by officials) and uses it as the explanation for every loss. He sees one unusual play as proving his most extreme opinions. If you hit any QB enough he will lose effectiveness. The best pro style QBs like Manning and Brady need 2.5 seconds to throw, mere pro mortals need at least 3. The fact that the OSU OL is completely dominating VT is lost on him and he is trying to convince himself that all of PSU's woes are entirely the blame of the QB who has his problems - among them the fact that gets 2 seconds to throw the ball on most pass plays and he is not mobile enough to prolong the play.
All except for he's not cashing in at the next level - laughable to believe he's playing in the NFL as inconsistent and inaccurate as he is especially when he's slower than molasses in reading what the defense is doing and getting the ball out of the pocket. He needs perfect protection on every single down and even then he only completes about half of the balls he should and constantly misses wide-open outlet receivers.
Not to say Hack is better on either level, but the pro game is different. If Jones tries to run plays like he does in college ball, he will get killed. Ask Cam Newton, who is the closest in style and has adapted, or RG3 who never learned to defend himself.
Jones avoids another VaTech defender running free straight at him....if CH was playing QB for tO$U he'd have already taken 3 sacks, but LMFAO at all the people who can't see that people who believe teams provide perfect protection for their QBs, especially on blitzes, is a JOKE because it doesn't happen. Jones has not been sacked yet and he's seen more pressure than CH saw in the first 20 minutes of the game!!!!
Another QB Draw for big yardage on a blitz with a blitzer running free in backfield that we are incapable of running because of our QB.
Another blitz where VaTech brings pressure and gets their hands on QB but do not get sack because Jones gets rid of it. That would have been another sack if CH played QB for tO$U.
No surprise, you chose to ignore the INT.
Jones is very strong, so he is much harder to sack than others. But under pressure, his completion rate is poor, as is any QB's.
He made one bad pass where the ball was tipped.. His good have out numbered the bad for him. He is a beast when he runs.
Really? tO$U's last two offensive plays featured VaTech bringing pressure, VaTech defenders getting their hands on Jones but Jones getting rid of the ball (both incompletions to UN-OPEN receivers) to avoid the sack. If CH were tO$U's starting QB, VaTech would already have 4 or 5 sacks and tO$U would have zero points. As it is, and thanks to their QB making plays against blitzes, they have 14 points and ZERO sacks (but plenty of pressures).
He's not been sacked yet dip$hit despite defenders coming unblocked into the backfield on blitzes and tons of pressure on blitzes where VaTech defenders have even gotten their hands on him, but he has gotten rid of the ball so as not to get sacked. If CH was playing QB for tO$U he'd have already taken 4 or 5 sacks, Jones has yet to sacked today despite VaTech bringing constant pressure and defenders running unblocked in the tO$U backfield.

Now the VaTech QB makes a huge thrown despite massive pressure and getting hit as he throws. Gee, it looks like all QBs see pressure - some make plays when teams gamble and blitz......and some DON'T!!
We have seen this act before. Wait until he gets to the pros and has to read defenses and execute complicated passing schemes. Urban's style of offense is not a pro style offense. How many running quarterbacks have we seen fail/get hurt as pros? In all likelihood, Cardale (who is dummer than a hammer) will be no different. Great athlete, strong arm, but not a pro QB.
Gee, I guess that puts VaTech (who went 3-5 in the ACC's pattycake Coastal Division and didn't even play F$U out of division) in another dimension then.......
