This is a pretty good read. I don't have an Athletic subscription, but you get a few free reads per month from their mobile app. This isn't a bad breakdown:

Haven't read this one yet but I've always enjoyed Dan's articles.

Sure seems like Nagy is the primary issue here.

Jesus Christ. Some kind of offensive genius we have. Can’t figure out how to run an RPO out of more than one formation.

Very interesting article. The Bears' O definitely has their work cut out for them to hide their tendencies and maximize the utilization of their most productive personnel packages.

When they are installing the RPO, are they giving Mitch the power to make the call at the line, or is he being signaled the call from Nagy through the headset? I am wondering if all that passing in the 4th quarter is on Mitch and not Nagy.

Also, when you have a RPO, is it possible that not all the linemen are on the same page? Obviously, your assignment and technique is going to change in how you schematically block the defender if it is a pass or a run.

I would assume if the QB were in control and you were getting your ass handed to you for over three quarters, you would start calling some runs...lol.
