Now the RG3 sophomore slump I don't see. As a matter of fact, I think Andrew Luck will have the sophomore slump this year among the QBs.

Morris may appear to have a slump based on lower yardage figures but it will probably truly be a result of more offensive balance and a shared workload on third down. He still should be int he 1,400 yard range with double digit TDs.
