I'm not happy with the decision but I understand it. He's the head coach making seven figures and has almost every NFL team hounding him year after year - I'm not.
I just hope he's got a quick hook if we see more of the same from Chryst.
Sheesh. How about I hope I was wrong about Chryst and that he picks apart Utahs defense. I mean the degree to which people are certain that Chryst sucks and that him playing well is an impossibility is astounding. Like I get it, I also think Costello is better than Chryst based on the limited amount that I have seen them. And/but I dont preclude the possibility that my assessment of them is wrong. And certainly, whoever the starter is, I am not hoping for a quick hook, I am hoping he dazzles and doesnt need to get yanked.

Point taken BC. I do hope Chryst does well but what I don't want to see is Shaw sticking with him until it's too late if he doesn't

Maybe it boils down to this for me:
As a fan, Costello has been more fun to watch. Quick decisions, enthusiasm, quick feet, better accuracy. Chryst reminds me of Shaw: just a hair slow to react when the game moves fast.
Over/under on delay of game penalties today? 2.5?

I'll go with the under.

LIstening to the pre-game and Husak is not a fan of switching the QB's in game.

Yeah -- I can't think of too many examples where this works. Leak/Tebow, famously. Steve Spurrier liked to do it. Ohio State tried it that year they had three QBs though they eventually settled on J.T. Barrett. Arguably Stanford's 2012 season is an example of "working" in that rotating in Hogan allowed him to break in at a gradual pace. Perhaps that's what Shaw has in mind with Costello, and that articulating the rationale in this way would basically ruin the idea. (You can't officially admit your incumbent QB is a time-server.)

What's Billy Beane won? Not really that much. He doesn't pass the eye test.
I'd play Costello because he is the future and they aren't going to the Rose Bowl with their defense anyway.

A couple teams last year (eg, Texas) had a QB package for the goal line. But yeah, generally it is not done.
