Here's my thing, while Jalen has hopefully improved (and I think he has, though by how much remains to be seen) the FSU game may not be the best indicator of his ability. It's the opener against what should be a legit top defense. Derwin James and Tee McFadden are studs, if there's not a lot of space (and against this secondary who knows) those balls are gonna need to be precise because a guy like McFadden has the length to really make Jalen's day difficult.
With what we return on the OL and at RB, I'm expecting Daboll to really establish the ground game, get Jalen into rhythm, but for the most part keep Jalen restrained until it's time to go deep off of PA.

I think the o-line will be considerably better than it was last year too. Skill positions will have no drop off. Everything around Jalen is as good or better than last year. Even if his physical ability isn't improved (which, by all accounts, it is) then his mental game will have improved with the experience and maturity of having a year under his belt.
I'm really not worried about the O, for whatever reason. The only real concerns I have are the FG kicking and the depth in the secondary.
