Shaw is holding off on naming Costello the starter: https://twitter.com/LombardiHimself/stat...2166941696
KEEP CALM. He did the same thing after Hogan's debut against Colorado.
I mean, would anyone expect any different?
...Now, actually doing something other than starting Costello would be bonkers. But he can't just SAY that, gotta make him sweat, or something. I dunno, but I think everyone knew that was coming.
Did we ever learn what happened to Chryst? I didn't notice him leave the field.

Doesn't Shaw owe it to Keller to tell him that decision face to face in private than in saying it in a post game press conference...in a game that Keller may have left with a concussion because he's trying to make some extra yards by not sliding? I certainly don't need Shaw to give me all the answers in the press conference. I will be confused if Costello isn't the starter next week but I do believe Shaw should be making the official decision after he's had conversations with all his QBs in private first.

I agree. Shaw is a coach, not a fan. He can't just walk off the field after his QB goes down and the backup has a great game and say, "Woohoo, we got our man!" There are ways to do things.
