He's really sharp. The guy does a great job of playing within the system, not doing crazy things. Let guys make plays for him, and I think that will show even more now that Randy isn't here.

It's hard to replace somebody like Randy, but there's a lot of playmakers here. Daunte plays very well within this system. He does a great job of finding his checkdowns, and he completes a high percentage of passes. He makes a lot of plays with his feet and plays with a lot of enthusiasm.
