If you look at complete games played in 2012 (8) and project that out, his numbers are:

208 ypg/3318 passing yards/24 TD/10 INT

The passing yardage would have ranked 20th in the NFL. TD passes tied for 13th with Ryan Fitzpatrick.

His QB rating would still have been pretty because of his completion percentage, but that is the line of a game manager who is not being asked to do too much.
