People didn’t know who Joe Brady was a year ago. He was some guy from the Saints that hadn’t ever coached a position before. He brought concepts. He didn’t call the plays. He also had a shitload of first rounders on offense including the best college QB we have ever seen.

Joe Brady wasn’t the savior. He was an asset.

Ensminger guided the same players the year before


Burrow was a 57% passer & threw 16tds



But yea, Brady just brought “concepts”. Lmfao

Regardless of what Brady or Ensminger contributed this is an ignorant way to compare the two.

The answer to your question is simple. No, Joe Brady didn't do everything or nor did he call all of the offensive plays as well. Just saying

Well the formations, route trees, and play calling were all things that Ensminger had never done in his career. And they were things that came straight from Brady’s last stop.

Do you have any recollection as to how INEXPERIENCED the '18 offense was heading into the season opener?

It was after the bama game EdO told slinger he wanted more spread and RPOs. After the bama game the offense was opened up somewhat but, SE said he would need help installing RPO sets. That's when Brady was brought in.

The BIG reason that '19 offense was so hard to defend was due to the fact any play in the playbook could be run by starting personnel. No need to subout. Kirby said as much in post game press conference. LSU ran 28 straight plays with same personnel.

If Faulk can find a RB than can catch the ball, watch out. That will be his biggest challenge going forward.

Having the ability to run anything and everything with starting personnel really screws saban's defense. If he doesn't have the opportunity to sub according to down and distance his defense is at a disadvantage.

It’s ignorant because it shows how inept Ensminger really was?

Think about what people are calling Joe Burrow right now. “Best season of a college QB ever”.

In 2018 Ensminger made a Heisman caliber talent look like a run of the mill SEC QB

It certainly didn’t help that they consistently played worse players

People are going to bat for Ensminger because he played here and he’s probably a really good dude that’s been loyal to LSU. There’s no other explanation

It’s totally illogical lol

O loves Ensminger but everything points to not trusting him to run the offense

The whole program has been changed for the best because of that decision

Like I told you yesterday, they literally took Chase out the game after scoring TDs. Look at all the scrubs that saw time over him. Dillon, Sullivan, Giles all stoke targets from him. No one that watched games thought those players were better Imao


Kevin Faulk in an interview flat out said CEH was better than Brossette and that brossette only played because of seniority


Ensminger’s play calling directly lost the A&M game

He wasn’t good at all

Maybe it was because he dropped so many passes.

Pot, meet kettle.

Not only that but anytime we lose a coach he goes from being elite to being trash or unimportant. It happens with every coach who leaves here that fans aren’t begging to have fired. The same people who were saying we better pay Brady whatever he wants to keep him a few months ago are now saying it doesn’t matter that we lost him it was all Ensminger anyway.

But you're supposed to be an expert on these things.

Or at least you act like you are.

WTF is a Sidewalk Tiger

This is a dumb post! Get a clue!
You sound like a Gump with that LSU is fricked, or you just don’t know your FB.

Coach Orgeron has been responsible for the EVOLUTION of the LSU Offense as follows (If U can keep up on my sidewalk, I’m 85):

Fun Facts:
1. 2016 LSU Offense averaged 63 plays a game with 25 passes & 38 rushes per game. 39%passing for 420 yards total offense
Result: 13th Final AP Poll (27 ppg scoring)

Orgeron takes over after Miles is Fired

2. 2017 LSU Offense averaged 66 plays a game with 23 passes & 43 rushes per game. 35%passing for 411 yards total offense
Result: 18th Final AP Poll (27 ppg scoring)

Summary: Too little change on offense and Coach Orgeron knows he’s treading water

3. 2018 LSU Offense averaged 73 plays a game with 30 passes & 43 rushes per game.
41% passing for 402 yards total offense
Result 6th in Final AP Poll (34 ppg scoring)

3. 2019 LSU Offense averaged 72 plays a game with 38 passes & 34 rushes per game.
53% passing for 569 yards total offense
Result 1st in Final AP Poll (49 ppg scoring)

Joe Brady brought the Sean Payton Offense to LSU with LSU at 41% passing. In 2019, that was increased to 53% passing in the TEMPLATE YEAR ... or MODEL YEAR

Joe Brady had an inimitable ability to spend 80-100 hrs a week dissecting opponents film and sculpting a game plan. He passed his methods along to Steve Ensminger and the other analysts.

Evolution of LSU Spread and Shred is 60% Passing

Good News: We have not yet achieved this in our infant year using the Saints Offense.

Myles Brennan comes from a 60% passing culture and had the highest passing yards in history totally destroying all Favre Family records with nearly 16,000 yards.

LSU should evolve toward 60% passing in 2020 and beyond, but by no means go backwards below 50%. LSU analysts now follow JOE BRADY ANALYSIS METHODS USING NEW AGE FB STATISTICS!

The Spread and Shred will be feared for the next decade until Defenses evolve to stop it.

Added: An intelligent post might have been what % passing can we expect out of LSU with Ensminger and Linehan, with Ensminger stating already not much would be changed.

However, when you have a 70 yard arm at QB, your playbook covers that.

Pretty simple. Brady DIDN’T do everything. Steve ran the offense. Brady made some 3rd down and red zone calls.
