Working alongside offensive coordinator Steve Ensminger, LSU moved to a spread offense that took advantage of their skill players, putting them in a position to succeed. Utilizing their running backs in the passing game, moving their receivers around to get favorable matchups, while using an uptick in play-action.
I have read this same exact or close to statement on several sites...they did not "hand Joe the playbook"....there was an entirely new system put in place, brought in by Brady from New Orleans...Again, I am not bashing Burrow...I just do not think that Burrow improved solely on his physical traits and overall abilities....I think that this system fit him perfectly and it was a perfect storm......For example, if it happens, let's look back on this and see how good of a year Tom Brady has if he leaves New England ( I don't think it will be very good and he will retire) It is called a "system" and any QB with some physical gifts will succeed in that system.
Ok lol he literally said that in the on field interview right after winning the national championship.
And they wouldn’t have made the change if they didn’t think they had the right QB to run the more pro system.
You pretty much have to bend over backwards to try to justify not being hyped about this kid.
