Matt Nagy kept this team together

[Toast88]

I do think Nagy is a good head coach. He seems to be well liked and respected by his players, and he says the right things (mostly).

He’s just not very good at offense.

When he told the team he would nothing more than the designated TO caller, I heard that there was a collective cheer and they opened club dub midweek for an all night rave. Virginia sampled some X and Teddy and George got caught in the equipment room "going over some numbers."

by your logic is every non play calling HC a glorified time out caller?

IMHO being a good HC is way more valuable than being a good offensive coordinator.

Agree. I hope he never takes the playcalling back.

or hey maybe in 2 or 3 seasons he finally learned something and can take it back over. in the foreseeable he needs a play caller

A few good games against bad teams doesn't excuse shitting the bed earlier in the season, and the past seasons of poor performance. Unless you're a QB apparently, according to a bunch on this board.

Fuck Nagy. He is a narcissist who could do no wrong after his first year.

Blamed Mitch for his O struggles. Blamed Montgomery and O-line for running struggles. He had Pace bring in Foles to show that Mitch was problem. Foles sucked ass. Nagy lost play calling duties.

Now Mitch can be effective and Bears running game is actually working? Seeing a trend?

Add to it he wanted TEs so Pace got him Graham in FA and Kmet in the second round and he has no idea how to implement them into the offense.

Add to that the staggeringly terrible gameplanning and preparation for weeks at a time turning a 5-1 start to 5-7 before finally making changes to stop the bleeding.

He is not a good HC. He is even worse at offensive playcalling and philosophy.

Enjoy the 32-heavy offense today.

Nagy will not do this consistently. He just cannot help himself.

A tiger cannot change its stripes.

Before the year is out, the Bears will go down and out on an offensive game where 32 barely has touches and pass attempts will be 50 or more. You can bank it with this guy.

but you must admit getting the team to not completely cash their checks the rest of the season despite losing 6 seasons speaks a lot about the HC. that’s a lot of losing without the team giving up.

The problem with Nagy is that he also...

- Tried to run the KC offense throughout 2019 (with the exception of the Chargers I-form game), even when it was clear Trubisky couldn't run it and the personnel wasn't there.
- Looked at Foles and Trubisky in practice for MONTHS and thought Foles was the better option, particularly after the OL was so obviously struggling
- Had to be removed from playcalling duties and have his arse handed to him by Lazor for the offense to be effective.

Eventually, Nagy will want to re-install his bullshit scheme and our OL and QB will not be able to execute it. Or do we really think he can stay out of the way and park his ego?

If Nagy can truly stay on the sidelines and piss around the edges with a few gimmicky screens and the odd Cordarrelle Patterson toss play to the boundary, then OK: I can watch Lazor and Trubisky for 2021 and see where we are. If not, let's blow it up and save ourselves the heartache.

While we're at it, can we please fire Pagano. His defense has been soft as shit the last three weeks.

Agreed, I still think its best to move on from him and Pace but i definitely acknowledge you can't credit the parts of the team you like for this turn around while not giving that acknowledgment to the parts you dont like.

 

[circusboy666]

Nagy is a pretty good HC. Questionable decisions at times but a TERRIBLE playcaller. I think we would all be taking different of Nagy if he gave up playcalling earlier.

if nagy being canned means Pace is gone too i would gladly say goodbye to Nagy and wish him success in the AFC.

how bears would it be if they canned nagy for a better offensive coach who ended up being a terrible HC though?

 

[Chicago Staleys]

Nagy has 3 quality wins in 3 years. That’s sad!

2018 - Rams
2019 - Vikings
2020- Bucs

He’s 1-4 against the Packers. (Solo win came against a broken 2018 GB team)

 

[Hbkrusso]

With Nagy, less is more.

Lmao its so fucking true its hilarious and makes me hysterical and sick all at the same time

 

[iueyedoc]

Some design plays well, some develop players well, some recognize what talent should be playing. Nagy has not done any of those adequately. Hell, today he took a delay of game with 1st and goal at the one rather than call time out and called a time out after the opponent called a timeout, so he pretty much sucks at that as well.

 

[SugarWalls]

cry haters

Please explain how he did that.

Please explain to me how the defense has not quit on the team.

Nagy time management = awful.
Nagy offensive play calling = awful.
Nagy offensive personnel usage = awful.
Nagy offensive line decisions = awful.

 

[dabears70]

he’s a good head coach and a bad offensive coordinator. like i said he kept the team together.

Soooooooo you're saying Pace did good?
