Hot Seat Watch: How hot is Matt Nagy’s seat after 13 games?

After a very anti-climatic second half for the Chicago Bears that resulted in a 45-30 loss to the Green Bay Packers on Sunday Night Football, fans have many questions. The big question is, how did this team fall apart so quickly after being up 27-21 at half? Matt Nagy is the one who has to figure that out.

Nagy is now 4-8 as Chicago’s head coach this season. He is one loss away from clinching his first losing season, after back-to-back 8-8 seasons. In this case, since Nagy missed the 49ers game, he doesn’t have the 4-9 record the Bears hold, as he didn’t coach that game.

Still, this 4-9 season has been a waste. Fans have seen some of what Justin Fields can do, but they’d like to see him with a different coach. Nagy is on thin ice and it’s cracking. Things are not good in Chicago, both on offense and now on defense.

Nagy continues to be out-coached weekly, which can be seen as the games get deep into the second half. There’s no finishing games. The Bears could have a lead against anyone in the NFL and it wouldn’t be safe right now. That’s just because of how poorly this team has been coached.

Like always, Nagy’s hot seat will be on a scale of 1-10, with 1 being the coolest and 10 being the hottest seat for Nagy.
