OP isn't saying that's the ONLY reason, but that it's a factor to be added into the piss in the well that is this offense ATM.
Y'all want there to be ONE quick fix for this hot damn mess. Not the case. It's a combo of things snowballing. Starts up front with OL turning to total dogshit overnight apparently. Overly cute playcalls and 1 dimensional RPOs are effectively NOT actually RPOs, so the foundation of the O is DOA & falls apart before the snap without a run game.
No way Mitch is near good enough to resurrect this mess at this point. He's part of the problem, absodamnlutely, but not THE quick "trade for ______" flip of a switch easy solution like so many meatballers irrationally expect.
Need a run game PERIOD!!!! Nagy can't do shit without it, as you're clearly seeing and he's all but admitting to you without flat out throwing the players he's stuck with under the bus publicly.
Funny how the injury did not effect him in garbage time
Typical meatball dumbassery. You do realize how garbage prevent D works right? Not seen enough of it from our Bears' D blowing shutouts late in 2nd quarter and basically all of the 4th when up? 3 man rushes = little to zero pressure in garbage time. ?
