The Saints are going to start 39-year old Mark Brunell at QB tomorrow with undrafted rookie Chase Daniel serving as the back-up.  Drew Brees will the the #3 QB.  Brunell has thrown 1 incomplete pass this season for the Saints and tomorrow will be his first start since the 2006 season with the Redskins.  Brunell has played in 172 games in his NFL career and he has completed 2,738 of 4,595 (59.6%) for 31,826 yards with 182 TD passes and 106 INTs (84.2 QB Rating).  He has also carried the ball 513 times for 2,421 yards (4.7 ypc) with 15 TD runs.  Brunell has enough tricks up his sleeve to play a good game tomorrow for the Saints so don’t count them out.  But, this was the right move as there was no need to play Brees.
