People seem to forget how poorly the Bears were run by Phillips and Pace. They traded away high draft picks for years - first to mindlessly move up from 3 to 2 to get that ****ing scrub Turdbisky, then to land Mack, and lastly to move up and land Fields. Sure there would have been some busts in there, but how many of those lost picks now equate to glaring holes at key positions? Fields seems to be ruined already because he's constantly running for his life and has zero talent supporting/protecting him. He's David Carr 2.0. You can't blame Nagy for any of that. And if the details of that article are true, perhaps Nagy was just pissed about being handcuffed to Trubisky and a fatally mismanaged team. Doesn't sound like he dealt with it very well, but shit, how many people would?
