Not a good moot point, or badly phrased. As good or better than Brees? Merely as good as Brees is the best offense the past 6 years, probably the best 6 year span by an offense in the history of the NFL, so the odds of that happening are not good with Daniel, or any other QB they can bring in.

What contingencies would the Saints have, of getting another starting caliber QB that could lead this team to a championship this year.

Again, badly stated moot point.
They are only 4 established "contingencies" in the NFL to even get a QB (let alone a staring caliber QB) and everyone knows them:
* go with the backup
* sign a free agent
* trade
* draft
So there is no discussion over that.

I'll say this, though:
I have confidence in Sean Payton and in that he's kept Daniel around for a reason. He may not be as good as Brees, but who is?

As for bringing in someone else, the obvious name here is Peyton Manning if he gets released (which looks like he will). By the same token, if Drew sits, the best fit for Manning would be the Saints if he truly wants the chance to win another ring: He'll have protection in New Orleans, a receiving group that runs strict routes and are used to timing patterns, and an offense that's's used to play changes at the LOS.

And no, he ain't getting 28 million this year from anyone, or anyone who can win anything any time soon with his style of QB.

Well, I go back to what Brees himself said in an interview during last pre-season - he said Daniel was a chunkier version of him. So, put Daniel on a SlimFast regiment and voilà! The Saints have another pro-bowl QB.
