If a college teams uses a similar system those players have a higher chance of having success when they transition to the NFL. if the systems are not similar than they will have a hard time making that change. 

Andy Dalton got lucky when he became a Bengals; the systems used in his first 5 years were similar to what he had in college and it is why he was success early. Hue and Jay both used similar systems that played to his strengths. 

If the current offense is not setup similar to LSU, Burrow may not produce like many are expecting. Given that ZT already has a year under his belt I'm not sure if MB will give him a 3rd year as the HC if the teams starts off bad like they did this year. It wouldn't surprise me to see ZT headed out the door if the team goes 0-4 or 0-5. 

There are way to many variables that could impact the team. I'm not thinking one player will turn this team around. He is just one of 53 players needed. This does not include the offense or defense systems, coaches, etc... I'm not sold on the team current and future plans under the current coaching staff. I will wait and see how it plays out but given 2019, I'm not sold on it. 

Any concerns you have about Joe being a system QB could be multiplied by 100 when talking about Herbert. Tua not so much but hes too injured to even be in the #1 pick conversation. And hes no Joe Burrow either imo lol.
