If Dak is healthy then I expect Tyler will see fewer snaps than he did last year

but I think this will make him more effective and I would expect his stats to
be similar to last year, slightly less.

I think you will see his completion percentage slightly go up and his yards will go down due to a more efficient running game. I know Perkins rushed for over 1,000 yards last year, but I didn't feel that we ran the ball well as a team. Prescott will also get increased touches as someone has already posted.

I'll buy. If he has any moxie about him at all then he is motivated to atone for the Gator Bowl performance.

Sell. This a tough one. I think his overall numbers will slip a little because we try to establish the run more. Add to that new receivers, and a tougher schedule.

Sell. TR could better his INT, Sack, CMP%, and YPA numbers. But he won't have the attempts to challenge the rest.

Sell & hope he doesn't ...

If it means we win more games. Think that TR comes in much more focused for his SR year. Last year he threw 30+ times a game. Would really him to to take command of games and rely on the running game to finish.

Of course, I would like to see CMP %, YPA go up along with fewer INTs and SACKs.

Like many have mentioned, Dak needs to get a lot more snaps this year which would limit TR's numbers.

Sell. If he surpasses last year's stats, Dak is on the PUP and we are playing..

from behind a lot. Neither of these seem to be far fetched, but I don't see him throwing as much in 2013 as last year. We will have an experienced OLine and go back to what's helped us win under Dan. Smash it down their throat running game, with a passing attack adequate enough to relieve the pressure off of the running game. He's got to make faster decisions and take the check downs that are open, creating positive plays for us this year. We cant depend on him to continually complete 20+ yard passes for us to be successful. Go back to the quick hitters and screen passes that work. Higher percentage possible, but not as many yards due to short passing game and Dak getting more PT.
