I think it was a clear indication of what he thinks of his quarterback., and if it was I agree with him. I don't ever expect anyone to be comfortable saying "it's a critical moment in a huge game, and we're putting everything on the shoulders of...Jimmy Garapollo."Maybe if the had tried to score at the end of the half, that wouldn't have been necessary.
I still think it was so conservative it was actually gutless.
I was certainly squirming, wincing, tooth-sucking, and facepalming every time Jimmy G dropped back to pass... and whining "Just run the ball! Gah! Why are you passing?!?" My baby sister was at my house watching and she started making fun of how uncomfortable I looked every time he dropped back to pass.I think it was a clear indication of what he thinks of his quarterback., and if it was I agree with him.

Actually living in Chicago, I can understand that. Nagy has no faith in Trub. But as sucky as was, he did shine sometimes in the 2 min offense when he had nothing to lose. Especially when the defense would fall back into prevent mode.I think it was a clear indication of what he thinks of his quarterback., and if it was I agree with him.

I think the biggest diff between Trub and Mahomes is taht Mahomes had the more experience so he could pick the nuances of reading defenses easier.
Trub is still learning and you can tell.
It is hilarious listening to all the talking head here discuss all the different alternatives that the Bears will do next year, despite the fact that they just ain't going to happen. We're committed, unless they fire Pace.
Thing is that Nagy has no excuse for his lack of faith. Trubisky is young. Nagy is a quarterback's coach. If he hasn't built Trubisky into a relaible quarterback, that's on him, because Trubisky might not have been Patrick Mahomes, but he was good enough raw material.
Every metric we have so far suggests we don't have a solid grasp of what "good enough raw material" for a QB looks like. Even the most predictive measures or combinations of measures aren't very reliable. It could be that Nagy is ineffective as a coach. It could be that Trubisky is bad enough that no coach could make him good. Could be some combination.
There are some minimum requirements of quarterbacking. Like being able to throw the ball at all, and put it on target consistently. Some QBs already put it on target coming out of college. Most that don't already put it on target with consistency never do in the NFL. But there are exceptions to that rule of thumb, such as this year's MVP who jumped enormously in accuracy and pass efficiency.
There are also guys who just don't have the cognitive ability to handle all the complex reads the game requires in the 1-3 seconds they get before passing. It's not easy to tell the difference between "person can't physically do this" and "person has not been taught how to do this effectively" though, so coaches often still see a guy who can throw it really far and run well and think they can "fix" them. Sometimes that works...usually it does not work.
