He keeps his eyes and head up always while climbing the pocket, and he has that pocket presence and awareness, you can't teach that stuff, and a cannon for an arm!!!! WE ARE
Sow awsome to see Jole geting so much national attention. He has been a staple in the Denver sports world for over a decade. Im glad to see he is being nationally recognized for his hard work
Allar is the most accurate passer running left or right out of the pocket that Penn State has had in a long, long time. He is big trouble for opposing defenses.
Exactly what I said vs WVU, I wish he would pull the trigger a beat or two earlier. Even on completed passes, he was regularly releasing the ball after the receiver snapped their head around on an out, for example. His arm strength makes up for it, but I think when he gets that timing better you are gonna see a lot of short pass plays that go for 30 or 40 yards because the DBs are just not expecting the play to develop that quickly.
Absolutely. Timing was the issue on that dropped INT in the endzone that he got away with *and* that slant route to Lambert-Smith that should’ve been a house call. He hits those and that WVU game is even more of a drubbing. Edit: I didn’t even finish watching the video when I posted this reply and he went over these exact two plays. Lmao. Well there ya go.
this is the kind of breakdown that fans love...for anyone that's a student of the game, this is a great video...I watched the game but didn't pick up on this...to me he inconsistently made great throws and he made bad throws...now I know why :)
Agree with Joel 100%. I’m a PSU diehard and two of my thoughts coming into the season were 1) we’re gonna be more dangerous at QB and 2) is this QB “throw ‘em open” good? Like, PSU hasn’t had an elite receiving corps since probably Godwin and Gesicki were here. We didn’t have the best WR talent when Clifford was the starter and he wasn’t the QB who could throw guys open; he was completely dependent on the guys catching the ball. If Allar is somebody who can flip that, if he’s someone who can throw these receivers open with a combo of arm talent and anticipation, then it won’t matter what receivers we have. They’ll all eat.
@@BOOOoOOooooOOON They absolutely were. Took him 4 years to get 1,000 yards in a season, he didn’t have more than 52 catches in a year until then as well. Playing with Clifford had to be infuriating.
Worried that all this hype about Allar is going to be like that for Pickett who looked great during pre season but failed in the first game of the real season. WVa and Delaware were like pre season. Now he starts the real season and I hope with a different outcome than Kenny's.
As a Penn Stater I can't tell you how frustrated I was seeing this Allar sit behind Clifford. And to hear Coach Franklin say "Wait til he starts playing" only adds to the frustration.
Clifford is a backup QB on an NFL team. He had a lot of QB knowledge being QB for so long. It helped Allar learn the offense without the pressure of winning the games at the same time
@@theread3480 exactly right and why I hate comments like this. Starting offensive players said he was not ready last year. But he's made big improvements since end of season... For the Blogy shows how much he has improved his footwork and throwing platform.
I like Klatt but some things he said about Allar aren't accurate. His first pass, the long one downfield Klatt said Allar threw off platform as if he couldn't get his body into the throw. Allar was running forward and had all his momentum going to into the throw. He may have been off platform a bit but to act as though he couldn't get anything into his pass besides his arm is not true. Then his last pass in the video, the short slant to Lambert-Smith he said he didn't anticipate which is why his pass was off. He anticipated fine it was just a bad pass.
Actually he was correct in both based on what he was trying to say. Yes, as you say, he was running forward with momentum, but his hip were open as he initiates the throw thereby getting very little hip rotation through the long throw. THAT is what Joel was saying and he illustrated that with his body showing you the difference in the video. Allan didn't "wind up" rotating his hip and core through the throw. It WAS impressive based on the trajectory of the ball. Elite but not necessarily special if we are judging him at the highest level. On the last play if you watch Allar, he does 2 things that are not considered anticipatory. He has a "hitch" step and he pats the ball. Now we are getting really deep here but as a high level QB, that extra 1/2 second those extra movements took contributed to what you call a bad pass. Those 2 movements are the "why" of the bad pass. He wasn't ready to delivery when his brain said "NOW". He was still going through his unconscious throwing routine as if it were a throw he had time to do his normal rhythm. Everything you said could be correct but when you go a little deeper, his assessment is in line.
Mccarthy for sure his duel threat ability is unmatched and he's actually proved himself against good competition unlike Allar who has only started 2 game @@CharlesBolton-yf7eg
@@CharlesBolton-yf7eg JJ is a threat with his arm and his legs, planned runs. No QB statistically better in the Big 10 right now. No conference QB with a higher QBR. JJ has been limited to reduce risk of injury. JJ hasn't been kept in beyond 3 quarters yet. The depth chart has been very active. The weaker opponents provide the opportunity. Same is true for PSU. Michigan coaches would not trade JJ for Allar or Mccord. They are very happy with the performance of the offense. The run game could be a bit better. Stop or slow down the run and JJ and the rest of the pass offense will burn you thru the air (like the OSU game last year). November 11 Michigan plays PSU. We will see which QB is better.
Why do you think Drew Allar is special?
cus he is him
His eyes are always upfield, he goes through his progressions and he has the arm strength/accuracy to deliver the goods.
Because he has the IT factor!
He keeps his eyes and head up always while climbing the pocket, and he has that pocket presence and awareness, you can't teach that stuff, and a cannon for an arm!!!! WE ARE
Pocket presence and pocket mobility, accuracy, arm strength, and processor. He’s the complete package.
His ability to just nonchalantly teleport the football 40 yards downfield is crazy
Joel Klatt is a Football Guru !!! Just got hip to Breaking the Huddle. Locked In Now !!
I love how Drew Allar throws to every receiver

He has the better arm and most upside/highest ceiling, PERIOD!

I think he'll learn the anticipation because he was actually really good at that in his High School videos. Just needs to adjust to the speed of D1.
Hopefully Penn State will be able to develop him. They have a history of underdeveloping talented quarterbacks.

Very well could be the next Josh Allen. I see an Allen/Roethlesberger hybrid in this guy.
Doesn’t even look like he’s throwing that hard but it just floats there
He’s HIM.
Coming from an audio engineer - Whoever produces this please make Joel wear a lav
He needs to show me that he can pass more than 2 yards against a good defense.
Do Conor Weigman next
Well this aged well 😂😂😂
PSU will be undefeated in the B1G. Best QB in the big 10 by far.

Don't you dare mention Pickett in the same breath as Allar. Pickett sucks.
Did Pitt not win the ACC with Kenny Pickett? Absolute clown take
Don’t hype him up to far he has to beat OSU today and Michigan to be great
Ewers screwed OSU and lost out on Allar. SMH
They never had a chance on Allar. By the time they saw the talent he was already leaning towards to penn state
@@robpeterson8006 correct, he committed early to PSU and never wavered.
He not only committed to us, but he shut down his recruiting, literally!!! And, thank God he did, because this kid is special!!!! WE ARE

Not every player is ready day one, and certainly QB'S
