Hope he loses every game. Just hopped into enemy territory.

I don't think he'll be a failure, but he won't have the overnight success that he had with LSU.

It's one thing to bring Saints schemes to frustrate SEC teams. It's another to bring them to a division that has played against those schemes (and in the Saints' case, came up with them in the first place).

Plus I doubt he'll have a clean slate QB like Burrow to direct. Cam's gotta Cam.

His 2018 offense says Hello
Do y’all Ensminger was doing this in the booth all year not learning anything?

You can’t objectively say he was the difference maker this year.


The 2018 season was the start of the transition. Because Joe Burrow came in late, he was ill prepared at that point to be thrown into a new spread offense, all the offensive linemen were new starters, the running backs were all brand new starters, and all of the receivers were all first time starters.

As the season progressed and as Joe Burrow and the receivers all gained experience, Steve Ensminger started implementing more and more spread into the offense to the point that by the final three games, LSU was experimenting with empty sets. In fact, in the Fiesta Bowl, Joe passed for 394 yards.

Nonetheless, earlier in the season, Joe was still getting his bearings with the new offense and the new receivers were running the wrong routes as much as they ran the correct routes.

In any event, even with a brand new offense with all first-time starters, LSU still came within a hair of finishing undefeated.

Meanwhile, the plan was always to go full spread in 2019.

Isn't he headed to Oregon?


Oregon OC search info from yesterday

LSU offensive analyst Jorge Munoz and former Mississippi State coach Joe Moorhead have both interviewed for the position, according to multiple reports, and Los Angeles Rams assistant Jedd Fisch, Tulane offensive coordinator Will Hall, Buffalo Bills quarterbacks coach Ken Dorsey, Dallas Cowboys tight ends coach Doug Nussmeier and San Jose State QB coach and passing game coordinator Ryan Gunderson are all in the mix.

Carolina didn't call Ensminger, they called Brady. Who do you think they thought made the difference from 2018.

Add another young, charismatic passing game coord who can relate to the players, be an asset on the recruiting trail, and keep the RPO GEAUXING.

And he applied all of that to our 2018 offense.

Everybody just stop! Let the dude who just won a damn natty last night decide what the hell he is going to do and then let him do it.

Cause I promise none of you even have a clue!

I Trust Ensminger. I would like the Munoz guy to stay and help in the booth with E. 2 heads under stressful conditions are good.

Brady called a lot of the red zone


You mean where we scored touchdowns on every trip last night, something Bama was unable to do last year. How many points against Bama did we have in our 2 games when E was solo OC?

You can't learn the ability to be creative or innovative. You can learn an offense, but it will be out dated quickly. New concepts and outside the box ideas are needed from game to game. Ensminger's creativity results in "0" points against a great defense. People are not understanding what makes Brady amazing. If it was just learning an offense and then bam, your good, then every team would be running this great offense.
