Thanks for posting these.  Decided to take a look at Haskins' game against Penn St as that was one of his weaker statistical games just to see what they were doing to him.  Still had good numbers.  22-39 270 3 TDs 1 INT although the pick wasn't his fault.  Bounced off the WRs hands.

Stats aside, I was a little surprised at how bad he looked in this game.  When he has time to throw he looks great.  And when they've got him in the shotgun getting the ball out quickly is when he is at his best.  First drive or two he had all day to throw.  But then Penn St started bringing pressure and Haskins couldnt do anything.  Meyer, good coach that he is, started beating that rush with a lot of screens to RBs and WRs.  That is where most of Haskins yards came from in this game it looks like.  Only had one big play when he faced some pressure and threw down field but it was more of a great play by the WR jumping up for a ball that was high and behind and then dodging a few defenders as he raced 40 yards for a TD.

Aside from the lack experience, that is the other unknown with him is how he does under a rush.  We saw that in the Rose Bowl too.  Washington couldnt get any pressure with their front four and their zone was getting picked apart.  But once they started bringing pressure and mixed up their coverage Haskins did basically nothing the last 25 minutes of that game.  But it's easy to argue Ohio St just took their foot off the gas as they had built such a big lead so it's hard to really know if that is a problem or not.

I'd still be happy taking him at 7, but I'm still not on the bandwagon that he is our savior.  I'll need to watch more of these videos.
