League MVP is a great award and I believe Drew is deserving of such an honor but thats not the ultimate goal is it? Drew and the team broke a bunch of records and thats all well and good, but in the end, none of that really matters unless we win it all. The way our team is playing right now I really feel that we are gonna bring home the ultimate prize again. And that my friends, is why we are here.

Actually, the Patriots wouldn't miss their QB as much as we would. They did go 11-5 with Matt Cassell at the helm.

Meanwhile, Chase Daniel has a career QB rating of 88.0

The difference between them to me is two things: interceptions and attempts. But, there are more things than passer performance to consider in MVP.

If MVP means which team would melt down without a player -- the award goes to Peyton Manning.

This Is The Same Reason I Can't Really Agree With Tom Brady Being A GREAT QB...It's The System, The System Is Made For A Quarterback To Shine In..I Don't Think Flynn Could Have Put Up That Performance On Any Team...He Wasn't That Good In LSU And I Don't Think 2-3 Years On The Bench Made Him Better

My thoughts exactly. I thought that the MVP is someone who without their respective team would not succeed. The Packers could clearly get it done without Rodgers (against a good Lions team), but I find it very hard to imagine that the Saints could dominate or even win a game with significance to both playing sides with Daniel as the QB.

I' don't want to take anything away from Daniel as he will probably get his chance to be the No.1 at some point in his career with some team, but to even suggest that he could do what Brees does is ludicrous.

I'd say it is between Brees and Brady really...

I'd bet Drew would rather have the Super Bowl win.
