Mitch Trubisky sounds a lot like Matt Nagy, and that’s promising for Bears

The Bears’ merging of Matt Nagy and Mitch Trubisky is complete, and they’re even starting to sound alike. All that remains is for Trubisky to master his coach’s Penn Dutch accent.

Actually, after Nagy’s inadvertently risqué rendition of “Take Me Out to the Ballgame,” maybe he better not take it that far.

Trubisky has mastered the lexicon, though, and that’s a sign that he’s operating as an extension of Nagy. It’s what every coach wants from a young quarterback.

“I’m calling the play in practice and he’s cutting me off because he knows the formation and he goes, ‘I got it,’” Nagy said.
