If Bryant starts all year, how many rushing yards?

Assuming he also stays healthy. 1,000? ... 2,000?

Better yet..... if Bryant starts how many passing yards will we have and will we continue to haul in the top WR's every year! You don't bring in guys like Rogers etc to watch the QB run for his life.

I don't want to see a running offense at qb. I want to see an explosive passing offense. We can't win running the football alone with Bryant.

I hope he rushes for 800 or so and throws for around 3000.

I realize those standards are high. I see a season that is not what we want if his running the ball is that much of our offense. 2000 yards? I really hope not. That would mean he didn't pass enough and we would have some unhappy wr's and some bummer losses.

Honestly, a realistic number for him in the high range could be 2000 passing, 1000 rushing. Woodrow Dantzler did it, and KB is a little if not a lot more athletic than him. That would put him averaging about 175-200 passing yards a game, which is reasonable but definitely unlike Watson or Boyd's 300 YPG. Also remember that Watson had 4000/1500 (albeit a 15 game season) in 2015!

I understand your reasoning for sure, but this offeense is different than it was for Woody. Unless Kelly literally can't complete a pass he will still be throwing it like 25 times per game.

If he's near 3000 passing with 1000 rushing while limiting turnovers our offense probably won't really skip a beat.
Everyone wants to compare the new QB to Deshaun Watson and they forget that literally right before Deshaun some people said Tajh Boyd was maybe the greatest Clemson QB ever (at least statistically and # of wins wise.)
Bryant doesn't have to be Watson, if he can even be 75-80% of what Tajh was for us we will be fine on offense. The defense is better now than it was then and the weapons around Kelly are just as good and there's more of them.

For KB, it all depends on one thing.

He is a dangerous and dynamic runner. Everybody, including our opponents, knows that. Opponents are going to stack the box and force him to beat them with his arm. Our opponents will deny us the run (as much as possible) and attempt to contain Bryant and make him throw the ball downfield. He will have open receivers, and if he can hit them, it will open up the run and he will have a lot of rushing yards.

Can he pass accurately to our wide receivers? If he can't, we can be stopped on offense by any team. We are not a running football team. Wide receivers come here for a reason.

3800 passing and 1300 rushing.
He has great targets, a good OL, and a defense that will get him the ball a lot. Bryant isn't small and won't be easy to take down. If our OL can get a little better with run blocking he will be great. IMO he can easily take us to 10+ wins.

Means he is an accurate and dangerous passer, and a more effective QB.

If KB is the starter for 12 games, then we will have 2 or 3 1000-yard rushers IMO. I would expect a 70/30 Run-to-Pass ratio.
That said, with the core of WR's we have, this had better not happen. Guys like Tee Higgins would not have signed with CLEMSON if he even thought that we would be run-oriented. It will be close to 50/50 run-to-pass and KB had better be able to deliver, or it will be "next man up".
I would actually love to see how KB would do running the jet sweep sometime (instead of RR). I think he would be absolutely unstoppable doing that.
