You're also not properly applying Mett's improvements: +6% completion % +18% yardage +83% TDs +40% yards per attempt.

Which would put Jennings at

54% completion, 1720 yards 9.66 ypa 18 TDs 10 INTs for next year

That's appropriate if they attempted anywhere near the same amount of passes. Mett had 7 ints on 352 passes in 2012. Jennings had 7 ints in 213. Skews all the numbers to a point that simple percentages are not effective. While we don't need Mett to win a championship, we do need a QB who is not the worst in college football. I don't think Jennings will be that bad again, but I have almost zero faith he makes that big of a jump in the offseason. He simply doesn't have the tools nor the feel of the game.
