Bears fans aren’t loving the thought that Matt Nagy gets to call plays again

The Chicago Bears are among the NFL teams that have been hit hard by COVID-19, which has five players sidelined and three coaches. In fact, all three coordinators.

With offensive coordinator Bill Lazor under COVID protocols, his status for Monday night has been put in jeopardy. And almost immediately, Bears fans came to the same conclusion: head coach Matt Nagy will likely get to call plays again.

Nagy, who is most likely nearing the end of his Bears coaching tenure, handed over play-calling duties to Lazor back in Week 4 following an absolutely embarrassing outing against the Cleveland Browns in Week 3. It was the second time Nagy has handed over play calling in the last two seasons.

And, as you can imagine, Bears Twitter had plenty of reaction to the idea of Nagy likely getting to call plays on offense once again.
