Can't blame the guy for being excited, probably makes him feel good that some teams have noticed him and could give him a shot at starting

Pat Kerwin @ SiriusNFL: "not enough tape on Daniel for anyone to give him a tryout as a starter, but someone probably will anyway. The good backup QBs in the NFL make 3-5M and decent Starters make 5-7M... Doesn't think anyone is going to give him what he is looking for...... " Kerwin is usually spot on with his analysis.


I think Sean Payton is letting Chase test the market, knowing he will be a Saint again next year. Another 3 year back up contract could mean he would never get a starting contract.

All this Chase talk lately... I hope he goes somewhere and gets a good shot at being a starting QB. It seems like some people here approach the idea of Chase signing with another as "Screw him... Career back-up QB." I don't get that. Best of luck to you Chase... I hope you do what's best for you and your family and find success!

I concur. Sometimes we sound like a bunch of little Backstabbing Betty's.

He did everything we ever asked of him. I hope he becomes a solid starter somewhere else.

I don't see Chase becoming a "solid starter" anywhere.

How many times has he been out there with the starters...seldom. And how did he do? Better than ok from what I've seen. Playing with starters, more reps, I have no doubt he could get it done.

Of course he's no Brees, but if you watch him in preseason, they will often run plays in the 2nd quarter where it is Chase and there will be a mix of 1's and 2's in the game, but then ONE solid 1st string guy out there (Jimmy Graham, or Pierre, or Sproles type guys). And they will run a play to THAT GUY, the screen, toss, handoff, a flat or an out route, and sometimes they will put a 1st string lineman or blocker on that side of the play. Yeah he's no Brees but Chase actually looks pretty darn serviceable on THOSE particular plays. It's only when it all goes down to a roster of 2's out there that he starts to look like he's a not-ready-for-prime-time player.

A lot of his UN-successful play in pre-season comes from things like, 3rd down passes with nobody but "David Thomas" as his star receiver, there was a lot of young guys catching their passes short of the first down sticks instead of just past it, or Chase gets put in bad down-and-distance situations caused by unsuccessful running plays.

On what basis do you say this? We have not seen him play enough to know he can beat out Rivers, Palmer, and Romo, who are all decent QBs and long time starters in this league just on ****ty teams. If he could "beat them out" someone would have tried to trade us for him by now. People always say stuff like "He's going to be a starter somewhere and He's the next Drew Brees, and when someone says he's not they say "Why would you say he won't be a starter we have not seen him play" Well the same thing could be said to people who are so sure he's going to start and be a great QB. We just don't know.

Can you tell the difference between these two statements?

1-I think he can be a starter somewhere.
2-He will never be a starter anywhere.

For starters have you seen the QB situation in Arizona? Anyone would be an upgrade.

Payton hasn't let any one get film on Daniels doing anything besides handing off the ball. Sean learned from Parcells...........don't tell anyone anything! Besides, Drew believes his back up should never see the field.
