One of the better discussions I've read on this board. Thanks. When it gets right  down to it, the eyes have it. Which is why Costello is the people's choice. Chryst is not fluid athletically. That is not to say he's unathletic. He just looks somewhat stiff. Costello looks much more athletic. He's much more fluid in his movements.

It appeared to me that Chryst did a better job Sat than he had previously of getting the ball out quickly. I'm hoping he continues that trend.

One thing that bothers me - neither Chryst nor Costello wows me with their accuracy. Although, again Chryst on Sat appeared more accurate than in the past. 5 throws stand out, all in the second quarter. The first was a pass that Smith dropped. It was thrown a little behind him. But it was perfectly placed. He threw Smith open. Second through fourth were the three third and long conversions against the blitz. All three were perfectly thrown. The last with a pass rusher in his face. The last was a third and 4 cross field out to Wedington. It was a fairly long throw, thrown low and away. Where it could (should) be caught but cannot be defended.

SSS to say the least. But hopeful nonetheless.

We will see if he builds on it versus Oregon.
