This team is a non-competitive mess. The sooner the Pace fallators realize that, maybe we can move on as a fan base.
I agree with this and think it's clear both Pace and Nagy should go.
My tea leaf reading says the following:
Pace stays, Nagy goes.
Pace case to Bears ownership: Pace is an excellent defensive evaluator, arguably one of the best in the league. Pace will be able to make the case that Nagy has been so bad at creating an offense, that the talent on the offensive side of the ball was underdeveloped(Miller, Daniels, Whitehair, Kmet, Montgomery, Ridley, Mitch all mismanaged) or wasted( Shaeheen, Mike Davis, and Burton thriving the second they left). Recent offensive picks such as Daniels, Mooney, Kmet showing promise when given an opportunity. Pace allowed Nagy to fire his entire offensive coaching staff and pick Foles as their QB, and everything got worse.
Pace should bring in some new offensive talent evaluators, and the new coaching staff should get a shot to help with a new QB.
Pace has built out new facilities and reshaped the landscape to make the Bears more modern and attractive as a destination.
Why this might be alright? Maybe there is truth to the fact that Nagy has been so bad that the talent can be better if we bring in competent offensive coaching. The Bears are still close when playing some of the top teams in the NFL - TB, NO, Indy - even with a bottom three offense in the league and an undisciplined team leading the league in penalties, punting the first and third quarters of each game, and terrible game and time mismanagement. , A new coach that can get the Bears into a modern offense can keep the team competitive through a measured rebuild - a Foles, Alex Smith type transition period to a young QB. Also, let's be honest picking a QB has a lot of luck to it, and first year GM's have a ton to overcome and is a terrible time to take a big swing at QB( there's exceptions -Kingsbury/Murray).
Also, let's be real transparent that the McCaskey's will be picking the new GM and they absolutely can, and possibly, will do worse than Pace and this org will spiral farther.
Why it might not be alright? Pace picked Fox, Nagy, Mitch, Foles, Glennon, and created this o-line mess. Pace can't use cap to fix the QB and o-line mess, and has given up too many picks for a quick turnaround in those areas. No faith he can bring in - or will even try - to bring in new O evaluators or get help making some tough cap decisions. These is no need to list any more reasons. All of this should be grounds for termination.
