The Bears head coach made a point to single out the poor play of the defense…
Getty Head coach Matt Nagy of the Chicago Bears Chicago Bears head coach Matt Nagy began his Monday press conference in a surprising way. He called out his best unit, and the primary reason his team has won five games at all: his defense. After Chicago lost its third straight prime time contest in embarrassing fashion Sunday night — this one to their arch rivals to the North, the Green Bay Packers — Nagy seemed exasperated and out of answers after the game, but full of fire on Monday morning after watching the tape. When he spoke with the media via Zoom Monday, Nagy noted the team had suffered no significant injuries in the 41-25 loss before expressing disappointment in his defense, specifically — a move that sent Twitter into a bit of a frenzy. Nagy is talking at Halas Hall and he’s pissed. « We better wake up! » He also threw the defense under the bus by saying « we expect our defense to go out there and get three and out. » He goes on to say the team’s performance was « ridiculous… starts with me. » Bears Barroom (@BearsBarroom) November 30,2020 Matt Nagy, who has won SEVEN games in which his offense scored fewer than 20 points, ripping into his defense is really something. — Jason Lieser (@JasonLieser) November 30,2020 Nagy starts his press conference off blaming the defense LMAO — Brad Spielberger (@PFF_Brad) November 30,2020 Follow the Heavy on Bears Facebook page, where you can weigh in on all the latest Bears-related breaking news, rumors, content and more! “At the beginning of the game, for them (the Packers) to go on this 14-play drive,75 yards and go down and score, that’s not who we are as a defense,” Nagy began.
