Former QB Continues to Attack Matt Nagy For Being "God Awful"

A lot of the negative energy after the disaster on Sunday Night Football against the Kansas City Chiefs was at Mitch Trubisky. This is no surprise. It was yet another primetime atmosphere and yet another disappointing performance in front of a national audience. He misread plays and missed wide open receivers for touchdowns. Just more of the same stuff that has plagued him for the entire season and his entire career if we're being honest. However, not everybody was looking in that direction. Some have chosen to point the finger squarely at Matt Nagy.

One such notable personality is former quarterback Sage Rosenfels. A former 4th round pick in 2001, he had a long journeyman career in the NFL that saw him work in several different systems. So he's seen much of the league and its best and worst. He is now a writer for The Athletic and 670 The Score. Nobody has been a more sustained critic of the Chicago Bears head coach this season than him and he wasn't about to waste his opportunity following the 26-3 debacle at Soldier Field.

His assessment was complete and utter disgust for the game plan Nagy had.

He wasn't done there though. When pressed about whether it was time for the team to move on from Trubisky, he went the other way instead.

Matt Nagy is making it harder every day to defend him

The reality is Nagy's aura of invincibility is gone. He had it at the start of the season after going 12-4 and running an offense that ranked 9th in scoring last season. However, things began to change almost immediately when his offense scored just three points against the Green Bay Packers on opening night. Over the course of the next 15 games, his unit would fail to score a touchdown in the first half 10 times and wouldn't score at all four times. That is a level of bad that wasn't supposed to happen under someone considered an offensive specialist when he was hired.

Yet it has. Blaming the quarterback is fine because Trubisky has earned it. However, good offensive coaches are supposed to be able to work around problems and at least make things serviceable. Nagy can't even do that. His schemes have no sense of direction or flow. He doesn't instill his players with enough discipline to execute properly. There is also a general lack of common sense that prevails with him at times. Nagy does design his fair share of creative plays, but that is only part of the job he's trying to do.
