Per game averages

2017 Rush: 207.7 Pass 203.5
2018 Rush: 173.6 Pass 228.5 (Burrow is the starting QB)
2019 Rush: 167.2 Pass 401.6

Leading Receivers
2018: Justin Jefferson, Stephen Sullivan, Ja'Marr Chase
2019: Ja'Marr Chase, Justin Jefferson, Terrance Marshall Jr (#7 in 2018)

However Joe Brady's LSU career consists of the one 2019 season. Perhaps there's a bunch to be said for changing the system to match the abilities of the players.

As a side note, I was always amazed by the seeming talent gap (way above) and the offensive structure of LSU for the last five years or so. It could go back further than that but I was only paying attention that far back

For the last 15 years, if LSU had an offense like their defense, it’s be Bama and them every year in the finals. -- nm - Will Hunting Jan 14, 15:40 5
- Absolutely. All they ever needed was a QB. -- nm - David Jan 14, 15:53 3
  - But they had the Burrow last season which is probably what goes into thinking to so quickly hire away the OC -- nm - JD Jan 14, 15:56 2
    - Like I said, I think Brady is a phenom. -- nm - David Jan 14, 15:57 1
      - Tom Brady will do well in Carolina -- nm - budice Jan 14, 16:13
- There were times that I had the thought: If they had any offense.... -- nm - JD Jan 14, 15:42
