Trubisky is garbage but Nagy makes him worse.

As long as he's the Head Coach for Chicago, they will struggle at QB. He's too stubborn as as a coach. Drop 2 more games (still have to play GB, Rams, Detroit, Cowboys) it could get ugly and possibly miss out on the post season. The NFC as a who is tough this year.

If Pace doesn't get it together, he'll be out as GM. Remember Trubisky was his guy in the draft.

Here's what "NFL" EGGSPURT Lance Zierlein had to say:

There has been plenty of negative publicity about this season's quarterback class, but it's deeper than the 2015 class that produced Winston and Mariota. Deshaun Watson has given the ball away too frequently over the last three years, but good luck getting his back-to-back performances against Alabama defenses out of your head.

Mitchell Trubisky doesn't have much experience, but there are several boxes he is going to check from a physical standpoint. Patrick Mahomes and Deshone Kizer would have likely been first-round locks in the 2018 draft had they stayed in school, but they still have the traits and talent to get early round consideration this year. Oh, and Pittsburgh's Nathan Peterman might be the Kirk Cousins of this year's draft. It's not a great class, but it has potential.

REMEMBER! "Pace has them on the BRINK" DOINK, DOINK!!

Possibly is actually probably. They're 12th in the NFC

Def DC Vic Fangio, DBs Coach Ed Donatell left for Denver; Asst DBs Coach Roy Anderson is with LSU...

Defensive Tackle Akiem Hicks is on injured reserve...

Jordan Howard is in Philadelphia...

Right Guard Kyle Long is on injured reserve...

Fmr Center Cody Whitehair is now at Left Guard...

And General Principles of Physics and Dynamics seems lost on Matt Nagy as he's trying to use Tarik Cohen, a 5 ft, 6 in 179 lbs as an everydown RB...

One hit wonder.

Just from watching the Bears the last few weeks, it appears that these guys on offense seem confused with his scheme. Take yesterday for example ... he runs (Montgomery) only 3 times in the FIRST HALF. Then after halftime, he runs his back 15 times. Why they got rid of Jordan Howard (has more TD's than Mitch) beats me.

It's hard to be effective passing the ball (Nagy doesn't trust Mitch) when you can't run the ball. His play calling has been suspect for weeks now. Too much trickery/formations .. only one guy I know that can pull that off consistently and he's the head coach in New Orleans. When you develop your QB on trick plays he does not learn defenses but learns trick plays.

Allen Robinson is the only trusted guy I see on offense but he can't do it by himself. It's a mess up there.

Coach of the Year is a joke award.

Let me remind you that Jason Garrett won it in 2016 when the Cowboys went 13-3 and... yeah.... one and done in the playoffs.

Nagy is out of sorts this year. He couldn't even position the ball between the hashes for his kicker for a game-winning FG with ample time and a time-out still in his pocket.

I loved it last week when he had 40 seconds on the clock and decided to kneel. Backing them up an additional yard and not even bothering trying to get closer for an easier kick in distance with 40 seconds to go.

JP has it right.
