Matt Nagy Didn't Even Last A Year Before Chiefs Fans Want His Blood

Chicago Bears fans tried to warn the Kansas City Chiefs fans. They said the idea of Matt Nagy replacing Eric Bieniemy as offensive coordinator was a bad idea. They'd watched him coordinate offenses in their city for four years, and most of that time was an ugly mess. Chiefs fans weren't concerned. They had the best quarterback in the league and a strong supporting cast. There is no way Nagy could screw that up. Just keep the Ferrari in drive and hit the gas pedal. Well, it appears their self-assurance is badly shaken.

Kansas City has reached DEFCON 1 as the offense hit a low point of the year, scoring only 14 points in a loss to the divisional rival Las Vegas Raiders. It marks the sixth time in the past ten games the Chiefs have failed to score at least 20 points in a game. They can't run the ball and Mahomes is having the least efficient season of his career. Even if they clinch the division title in the next two weeks, nothing is clicking for this team. They will have to play on the road for the first time in the Mahomes era, and it's hard to imagine they get anywhere close to the Super Bowl.

The one man catching the most heat for this debacle is...you guessed it...Nagy.

Matt Nagy may not even get another year on the job.

The Chiefs are an organization that isn't afraid to make changes when something isn't working. The last thing they want is Mahomes to be ineffective and unhappy. He is both with Nagy in charge. It would not be a shock if they either fired or "reassigned" him to a different position and brought in somebody else to coordinate the offense. They may even bring back Eric Bieniemy, now realizing how vital he was to their success. Remember, they won the Super Bowl last year with almost the exact same supporting cast. His absence is the only significant difference.

Bears fans can only sit back and sip their tea. They knew Matt Nagy better than anybody. It was obvious to them that Kansas City made a serious downgrade at offensive coordinator when he got promoted. Seeing their prophecy come true has to feel cathartic. It is even more evidence that the guy was always a big part of Chicago's offensive misery between 2019 and 2021. One could say he's never been the same since that heartbreaking night at Soldier Field against Philadelphia in the playoffs. Before that, he was an innovative playcaller that had Mitch Trubisky playing like a Pro Bowler. After, he's never been the same.
