Before the start of training camp, Bears head coach Matt Nagy promised that he would be open and honest with Trubisky and Foles. Where he would not be afraid to tell them if they were playing crap or making some critical mistakes.
‘What did I tell you a few weeks ago? We will tell them if they play crappy and we will tell them if they play well, “Nagy told reporters Thursday.” Either that is the accuracy of a throw or that it is a decision. “
On the third day of padded practices, Nagy made good on his promise when Trubisky made a critical mistake in the red zone. On first-and-goal on the 1-yard line, Trubisky ran out of bounds and took the sack before throwing the ball away, which is something he has been known in his career to do. And Nagy called him out.
‘These are critical mistakes we cannot have. He will not do that again. He will repair it and move on, ”said Nagy. “That’s a situation game that we should be 2nd and goal at 1 and not 2nd and 3rd. He will fix that problem and move on and he will do better tomorrow.”
This was the third exercise where media were allowed to participate, and all eyes remained on the quarterback battle. Here’s how the quarterbacks went on the third day of padded practices, through the eyes of Adam Hoge of NBC Sports Chicago.
