You really didn't just put Brunell in the same category as Warner, Favre, and Garcia, did you? The only thing similar about them IS the age. Brunell hasn't played a full season as a starter in what? 4 years? Those other guys are and were still playing at high levels for their age. The same cannot be said for Brunell. Do you honestly think the Saints could win a few games with him behind center if something happens to Brees? If you do, you are probably one of the few. I'll admit that I liked the signing of Brunell two years ago, but since I've seen him on the field, not so much anymore. Brunell looked God awful in that game against Carolina. It was painful to watch. Just because he has a decent resume, doesn't mean he is not replaceable. I will agree with you that Brunell is intelligent, but talent has left him long ago. I would much rather see what Chase Daniel can bring to the table over Brunell.
