I'm with you though that it's going to be difficult to run that much and he'll need to improve as a passer if he's going to stay on the field.
I'm just saying that if he can pull off 4000 combined yards, 25+ combined TDs, and 10 or less turnovers, that's a pretty solid stat line.

I was disagreeing that 2750 yards and 14 TD's is "slinging it". Whether or not he can vastly improve as a passer is key, because the offense they were running (17 carries per game for Jackson) isn't sustainable.

I certainly hope - as a Bengals fan - that he turns out like Kaepernick. (Jim) Harbaugh was able to mask Kaep's weaknesses (lack of touch or ability to go through progressions) and highlight his strengths for awhile, but eventually teams caught up with the pistol and exposed Kaep's limitations as a passer. 

Anything could happen though. This year will be telling. They're installing an all-new offense around him. He didn't even find out til 2-3 days ago, which was pretty interesting.

I think it's from earlier this morning, but a couple of things:
1) Ravens and McCoy were meeting later today, late afternoon/early evening.
2) Browns still believe they are in the mix.
3) McCoy seems willing to take his time.
4) Bengals are described as "still lurking in the background".
5) Bengals have not yet set anything up with McCoy, BUT the Ravens didn't set anything up with him until he was done in Cleveland.

Ya don't say?
