Stanford has been good to very good offensively ‘tis year given the problems with injuries on the offensive line. Sometimes I think we try to hard. Every single offense of line men has missed games. The line has been beat to hell. And yet offensively they been able to put together a good attack almost every game. There been a couple of exceptions. But it’s been a good offense given that limitation. Bigger problem is on the defensive side of the ball. But nobody wants to seem to accept that because we of course have the narrative

Costello, a career sub 60% passer, is completing 67% of his passes this season. Should the QB coach get any credit for this improvement?

I'll give him all the credit in the world - as a QB coach. Just like I gave Bloomgren credit as an OL coach. Problem is they were/are both not very good at OC.
