Jets QB Davis Webb looked like a practice squad project in preseason
As you probably know, the Jets have a new developmental quarterback. Davis Webb was a third round pick of the Giants just last year. He was surprisingly waived last weekend and went unclaimed. The Jets signed him to their practice squad earlier in the week. I found myself curious about this situation. It isn’t every day that a team gives up on a day two pick after just one season. Even Christian Hackenberg got two seasons to try and prove he was worth something. Some Giants fans suggested this move was a power move by new general manager Dave Gettleman. Webb was drafted by the old...

Bengals signing QB Christian Hackenberg to the practice squad
Logan Woodside seems to be done with the Bengals. The Bengals are signing quarterback Christian Hackenberg to the practice squad, filling the final spot remaining there, per Mike Garafolo. QB Christian Hackenberg is signing with the #Bengals practice squad, source says. He goes way back with Bill Lazor and has some experience with Jim Haslett, who was a consultant at Penn State in 2015.— Mike Garafolo (@MikeGarafolo) September 2, 2018 Hackenberg was the 51st overall pick in the second round of the 2016 NFL Draft by the Jets. He has completely failed to live up to that billing and has...

Report: Christian Hackenberg among group of players released by Eagles
But will he be coming back soon? The Philadelphia Eagles have already begun to make their 2018 NFL roster cuts. As noted in BGN’s Eagles cuts tracker, NJ.com is reporting the Eagles have released the following players so far: quarterback Christian Hackenberg, tight end Billy Brown, tight end Gannon Sinclair, and center Jon Toth. Hackenberg is obviously the most notable guy from this group. The 2016 second-round pick out of Penn State originally signed with Philadelphia less than three full weeks ago. The only preseason playing time he received was against his former team, the New York...

Final Score: Eagles 10, Jets 9
In the annual Backup Bowl the New York Jets were defeated by the defending Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles by the score of 10-9. The game was pretty much what you might expect from a matchup of backups, an abomination of turnovers, penalties, drops and miscues. Old friend Christian Hackenberg was the star of the night for the Jets, nearly single handedly willing the Jets to victory with interceptions, fumbles, sacks and terrible clock management. In an unstable world it’s nice to know some things never change. Sam Darnold sat this game out and Josh McCown led the offense through...

The Hackenscale: A new and exciting way to grade Christian Hackenberg
How Hackenberg was Hackenberg’s first Philadelphia action? Let’s discuss. The Rules The Hackenscale is a carefully developed (haphazardly thrown together) grading scale for Christian Hackenberg throws (and other plays that I want to include that I find funny). A lot of (no) thought process went into defining the regimented factors (random conditions) that comprise the Hackenscale. I can’t reveal the exact grading determinants behind the Hackenscale, because they are too valuable (don’t exist) Understanding the Hackenplay of Hackenberg allows us to project his Hackenfuture. While his...

Jets vs Eagles Second Half Thread
So, that first half was ... something. The Jets backups on defense dominated the action. Some nice pass breakups, a little pressure, a sack or two, a couple of interceptions by Juston Burris and J.J. Wilcox gift wrapped by old friend Christian Hackenberg, and the Jets forged a 3-0 lead. The new kicker Jason Myers helped his cause with a long 58 yard field goal. On offense Jets receivers were plagued with drops, drops everywhere and not a catch in sight. Just two more quarters of fake football to go now. Try to cherish every moment. The preseason always goes by much too fast. Before you know...

Jets podcast: Breaking down the trade of Teddy Bridgewater to the Saints
Today the Jets play their preseason finale against the Philadelphia Eagles. I promised yesterday there would be a podcast discussion on the game. That promise is being broken. I don’t have many thoughts on tonight’s game aside from how entertaining it probably will be to watch Christian Hackenberg play for somebody else. So our topic on today’s podcast will not be the game. The Jets made it easy to find a new topic yesterday as they traded Teddy Bridgewater and a sixth round pick to the Saints in exchange for a third round pick. We will discuss the trade on today’s show. My...

Jets 2018 Roster Countdown: Number 15 Josh McCown
The veteran Josh McCown is next in our Jets roster countdown. Name: Josh McCown Number: 15 Year with Jets: 2nd Projected Role: Backup quarterback/veteran mentor to Sam Darnold His 2017: The Jets did not have a very good 2017 season, but they probably would have been a historic laughingstock had Bryce Petty and/or Christian Hackenberg started the bulk of the games. McCown helped lift the Jets to merely bad team status while setting career highs with 2,926 yards and 18 touchdowns. Some brutal fourth quarter performances helped contribute to losses, but things could have been so much...
