I went back and forth with the top two spots in my 10 Most Important Bears’ list this year, but ultimately I went with head coach and play caller Matt Nagy at number two, and (spoiler alert) the quarterback at number one. And here’s why; it’s on the players to execute the play calls that Nagy sends in and last year Mitchell Trubisky failed at that more than he should have.
And yes, I know that opening paragraph has already divided the class as several fans believe that Mitch was a victim of poor play calling, too many drops, and a shaky offensive line.
