You continue to use Mahomes as being a whiff, pretty good example of hindsight...who knew what he would be? The same GM's that passed on AR or Tom Brady?

Nope, but if JA hit on a single QB he'd probably still have a job. Just the way it works.
I'd add, a lot of a players success is how well he develops. Was the plan to draft Mitch, fire Fox then get Nagy? Probably not. We also don't know what Nagy will be. After o e season things look good, but the NFL is a 'what have you done for me lately' league. If the D regresses (which is possible), they do Nish around 8-8 and statistically Mitch does a bit worse he'll have a healthy group of fans looking past his time in Chicago.
That's not unique to Nagy. It's just the way the league goes.

Doubtful @Meatball/halvetime is buying your response. His picture is in Webster's next to @negative Nellie/ clueless idiot.
Anyone that's been watching Baerz football for a reasonable amount of time would know Pace is safe due to the team he's built regardless if MT ends up being just average.

Jerry Angelo didn't draft particularly well considering how many years he was GM. He hit some good players throughout the years, but there were also many drafts, particularly toward the end of his tenure where he whiffed all over. In fact, he left a poorly depleted roster, especially from a depth standpoint, for Emery to try and fix. JA is a big reason why the defensive teams we fielded under Trestman and Mel Tucker were so terrible.
On the other hand, Pace has drafted a pro-bowler every draft class class so far, and in some classes he has drafted multiple. Even then, many of those players are young and still developing into their potential. Give Pace 10 years like JA and I don't think it will even be a discussion..

Pace's teams had been so bad that the Bears were always drafting in the top 10 every year. For all his faults, Angelo's teams were almost always winning 11+ games or 'regressing' to .500. A bit harder to churn out pro bowlers when you don't have premium picks every year.
Emery dug his own grave. Please don't blame Angelo. The two things that set the rebuilding back wasn't the "poor depth" supplied by Angelo, it was the hiring of Emery and the Cliff Stein contract given to Jay Cutler. That just needlessly extended the "dark times" another few years.

Fucking idiot. He opted not to fix the QB position at the trade deadline.
