I would be shocked if he posted something totally out of line with his career numbers this year. He's been in his prime for awhile now (he's 29), so I don't see him getting much better than he is now.
When I break down Romo's passes from last year, the trends are startling. Almost zero of his most valuable completions went to wide receivers. Consistently, Romo was best throwing to his tight ends and backs. Little things like that tend to be the mark of good quarterbacking.
If Campbell explodes this year, I expect to see a similar trend: Cooley and Fred Davis with tons of positive value plays, a great receiving year from Portis, quality contributions from Betts and Sellers, and then the status quo from the WRs.
That should yield the breakout, as long as the status quo with the WRs looks something more like a set of standard NFL receivers, and less like whatever last year's impersonation was.
