What was the problem with the play calling yesterday?

The issue was that we played 3/11 starters and got our ass kicked by a good defense.
Nagy's offense is so unbelievably easy to scheme for, though, Windy. And it was evident on Saturday, as well, no matter who's playing. The Bills were playing a lot of 2's and 3's, as well, and still crushed us.

The Bills didn't even start their #1 QB, they just beat our ass with the QB we let go. That's embarrassing.

The few people that are still on the Nagy bandwagon are clinging to a handful of games in 2018 where the offense didn't look like shit.

Dalton will be the 5th starting QB for the Bears, and it appears nothing has changed. NOBODY has looked good under Nagy.

Which game were those? And against which teams?

A good leader wouldn’t need someone to step in and take away play calling duties. A good leader never would have taken them back in the first place after lazor got the offense performing better than it ever did under Nagy.

Lazor is the better OC/play caller but Nagy doesn’t care. He wants to call the plays because he puts his own wants over the good of the team.

I was referring to the stretch in 2018 (weeks 8-13) where the Bears averaged 29 points per game. That's the only time the offense has looked capable under Nagy. Turns out it was all smoke and mirrors.

The last 5 games of the 2018 season, including the playoff game, the Bears averaged 18 points per game.

I will admit thru the end of 2018 I thought we hired a good coach. But a few games into the 2019 season, I suspected Nagy was a fraud while others thought it was just a down year. Then came the 2020 disaster when he brought in Foles who "knew his system" and he couldn't even design an offense to keep him in the starting role.

I just have no faith in Matt Nagy. None at all. The second he leaves the Bears will start to become a better team. I really hope this is his last year and we can hire somebody to coach and design a system around Fields.

Great another Nagy sucks thread!
Look, as long as the Bears front office doesn't have the balls to force control over to Lazor, we're just going to keep whining about how awful Nagy's play calling is and making new threads about it.

The front office needs to give Lazor the power he deserves at this point. If Nagy was smart enough, he would know that this in itself can save his job.

Whats the point of the front office doing that and not firing Nagy? If they have to step in because he can't realize he's awful, then he's done for.

Also, nothing wrong with Nagy sucks threads as long as he's still our coach.

Because I honestly feel that if they fired Nagy and gave more control to Lazor, that would just screw things up even more as Lazor would probably become the interim coach and that might be too much responsibility for him at this time.

Its simple, give Lazor the playbook and let him call the plays. You can't get rid of Nagy at this point until late or end of season. Plus, giving Lazor control of the playbook will afford the Bears time to see if he's a good candidate for HC or even Interim at that point.

Lazor is not a good candidate for the job. No chance Nagy is fired until after the season anyway. The whole staff will be replaced if Nagy goes

Nagy should have been fired last year. He’s bad. Like worst HC in the league bad. Not sure what the FO is expecting. He’s not going to magically learn to coach and lead a team. Justin could possibly end up saving his job, which would be terrible for him long term because Nagy is not the guy you want developing you.

ITS PRESEASON!!!

Your comment may very well have been valid for the past 3 seasons, and may be valid once this season starts. BUT NO ONE, INCLUDING NAGY, IS SCHEMING IN PRESEASON!!!

Well apparently Nagy also doesn't scheme in the reg season as well because preseason and reg season looks the same..

I wish someone would Nancy Kerrigan Nagys elbows, so he can't hold the playcall sheet

Hard to argue. His best plays are all gimmick plays that caught everyone off guard in 2018. Mike Martz and Marc Trestman would run circles around this clown
