Not sure if I agree or necessarily disagree, just wanted to clear that up.
    After rereading the post thats exactly what he was saying and i misread. Yes. Shumpert is a better lead blocker and yes that will give Dak more yards in that instance.

    We we aren't changing our offense- the QB is going to run the football. That's what makes our offense successful
    I'll agree with that because I'm expecting Shump to put up a 1000 yard season. If Shump can't hold on to the position firmly and we play 2-3 equally. Dak will have more yards than each individually.

    I think the offense is more potent,with Mixon and Dear some how on the field. Assuming they don't red shirt.

    Our improved passing game will make life easier for Dak running the ball so I think he could end up with more long runs this year.

    We will be flat out difficult to defend.

    Dak will have more yards than our best back but fewer than our running backs combined.
