Obviously, a lot has changed with the 2019 roster.

• The coaching is significantly improved with a coach who is known to emphasize a player's strengths.
• The OL is night and day better than it was (Luck was sacked only 18 times last year).
• There are better, more dynamic playmakers at receiver, TE, and RB.
• The defense is markedly better and should create more turnovers and keep the offense in better situations.

I think the biggest two questions influencing Brissett in 2019 will be 1) his ability to process reads and 2) short-to-medium accuracy. Based on comments from Sirianni, we know that Brissett has taken steps to improve in both areas.

What does that mean for our expectations for Brissett in 2019? There's certainly a range of probably outcomes, but I think a reasonable comp would be Dak Prescott's 2018 stat line:
3,885 yards, 67.7% comp %, 22 TDs, 8 INTs

Healthy, I think he's over 4,000, this lineup is stacked, he's had all the reps, and Reich is the brains behind it...

I'm not sold on his %, that to me is the marked difference between he and Andrew. I will peg him right around 60%.

TD's I think we're going to see it light up like the 4th in that area, I think he's 32+.

He scares me a bit more with the INT's, I would not be shocked if he ends up 15-18 range in INT's. Good news is, I think he's got a D that can rescue him in a lot of cases.
