After losing just one game by 20+ points in his first three seasons with the team, Nagy has seen the Bears lost three games by 20 or more points already through Week 7. The 35-point loss to Tom Brady and the Buccaneers was the worst in his tenure with the team, and when he was asked what made him confident the team wouldn’t let this loss cripple them, Nagy said this: I will say the last couple days with our team, we’ve become really close. For us to become as close as we have the last 24-48 hours, I just trust and believe in them. And they’ve done it before. We’re 3-4 right now. Again, we can’t have this affect us and make it be a 2 or 3 or 4, feel like that much of a loss. We lost and we’ve got to learn from it. Our guys have rebounded before in the past and I just know from our discussion in there after the game and where we’re at right now as fighters and people and teammates, it’s not fun.
