But most significant was the lack of a run game this season, so for him to achieve all of the above despite an obvious step back in what was the strength of the offense in 2015 is a positive indication that his skills as a passer continues to improve. Sure the red zone % was awful, but it improved dramatically over the last third of the season.
1) Bring the run game back to being respectable
2) Continue to build chemistry with Tyreek in the offseason
3) Get Maclin back to 2015 form
4) Receivers need to improve catching ability (2nd worst in dropped passes this season)
This Offense will be one of the most efficient ones in 2017 and it's not as if there has to be radical changes. All the pieces are there.
Prediction: 28 TD's/ 10 INTs , 68% completion rate, 3800-4000 yards

You are predicting that a 33 year old Smith is going to throw for more yards than he's ever thrown for in a season and going to have his highest TD total ever.
