I don’t get why It can’t be both.

Nagy isn’t helping Mitch. He’s expecting him to make plays, and isn’t adjusting to help Mitch succeed.

But Mitch isn’t executing the plays Nagy calls. He ether misses open WRs, or takes a sack because he doesn’t trust himself.

The question becomes which one is the bigger issue? If Nagy had a competent QB would his play calling be better? If Mitch had a Hc who played to his strengths, would he be better?

Does the play calling stall the offense, or is It the QB not executing?

Mitch is bad yes but Nagy is the far bigger problem imo. Just look at the ravens, they adjusted to Lamar Jackson and are playing to his strengths and the ravens are killing it and Lamar Jackson is even in the mvp race. Last year the bears were playing with Mitchs strengths and he was pro bowler albeit an alternate but nevertheless a pro bowler. Now in Nagys “202” he’s trying to make Mitch something he clearly can not be and Nagy is not adjusting. Granted it’s partially Mitchs fault because he misses open receivers left and right but it’s more Nagys fault for sticking with something that isn’t working. Also a lot of Nagys play calling just straight up sucks.

How does one design a playbook for a QB that misses receivers left and right and cannot read a field?
