Been on vacation the past several days in Illinois. On the way back to Kansas City as we speak. Heard some idiot call in and say Chiefs fans are laughing at the Bears and saying, “Get ready for all bubble screens and runs up the middle.”
As many of you know, I live in Kansas City and work in a job that puts me in direct contact with tons of fans and indirect contact with members of the Chiefs coaching staff. I don’t know who that dude was talking to, but he either has got to be lying or talking to some fans who are in the extreme minority. The vast vast majority of the fans I’ve spoken with love Nagy, lovingly and uncreatively referred to as “Nags”. They credit him with helping save the Chiefs season, since they were 6-6 when he came in to call plays, then undefeated afterward.
They’re well aware that Reid/Peterson/Nagy are to thank for making Alex Smith look All-Pro and Nagy is largely credited with making Mahomes look good the other game (although I personally don’t think Mahomes has the skills to start in the NFL, there’s no denying Nagy’s plays set him up to succeed and made him look good.)
I would’ve been cool with a few different options, but I’m ecstatic with this pick. At worst, Nagy will make Trubisky look very good. We’ve got our offensive mind.
