Daniel got a bunch of pre-season snaps against backups, which is why he looked so good. The #2 draft pick is going to get developed. For the idiots out there, Daniel has a lifetime 81.1 PR. Trubisky, as inexperienced as he is, has a 77.6 rating. The floor for Trubisky isn't significantly less than Daniel. Daniel is a good backup. That's it. The ceiling for Trubs is much hiher, which is why he was the #2 pick and why he will be the starter. There is no controversy here.
I largely agree. No controversy at all yet. Period. LaCanfora trolling for clicks, that's all.
But ... the conversation on a leash and the timing of pulling on it if things continue should be talked about.
I don't know Daniel at all just like anyone here. No one can point to the past and say he can't do well (McCown in Trestman year says hi) nor can anyone say he would do well cause McCown did well either.
But this play ... it's not like he is 77.8 vs. awesome defenses and he did what little he could based on what they gave him. He had 90+ PR days wide open to him too many times now to hand him the rest of the year "no matter what" the context in W-L and other playoff teams.
But yeah I don't talk about it now at 2-1 with a bye coming in 2 weeks, no. He's got it and he needs to do something this week and/or the week after bye.
