He's just not all he's cracked up to be.
I wrote out a long-ass post last year, showing how he was only a piece of the LSU attack and not the end-all, be-all, as Ensminger was still there and Brennan was on fire last year, before getting hurt. Can't find it now, but went fairly in-depth into the numbers and how Ensminger completely turned things around from a run-first offense, to a spread.
Brady coming in put the finishing touches on some of the route and spread concepts (which he brought from the Saints) and he is clearly a great football mind, but he isn't this ultimate mastermind; again, he leaves and the offense doesn't skip a beat and that's even WITHOUT Burrow, Chase and Jefferson (they only had a shitty season due to their horrid defense).
People gave the, "no McCaffery," excuse, last year, but aside from the first 3 games this year (as you've mentioned, Ocho), they have looked just awful and that's even with, "Rhule and Brady's guy," in Darnold (at least that's what they were dubbing him at the beginning of the year).
If Walker does as well or better, then we can say it's more Darnold than anything, but I have never held Brady in the regard that many have; again, he's a piece, not the whole machine.
