I'm not usually a 'FIRE THE COACH!' guy, I'm really not.
But the complete regression of the offense with mostly the same guys in what should be a much more comfortable second season in the offense is just unacceptable.
What's different? The OC and the WR coach.
For the most part, Mahomes has time, so other than the penalties on the OT's, I'm not seeing protection as the problem. (The penalties ARE a problem of course, but I'm setting that aside for the moment.)

I think that EB must have exceled at identifying our plays, or plays we could run, that directly attack what the defense struggles with.
Nagy just seems to suggest plays for the game plan that have nothing to do with being successful against a specific defense.
He is in love with sideline to sideline plays, ridiculous wildcat formations near the red zone, and there isn't really any discernable theme to the plays outside the script.
I remember several times, especially in the SB, where EB was credited with having identified a play that would be perfect against the defense.
Mahomes plays better when he is fired up. I don't know, and neither do any of us that weren't on the sidelines, but it seems like EB didn't care about ruffling Mahomes' feathers, and Nagy seems like he just wants to replace Kelce as Mahomes' buddy.
Whatever the combination of things, Nagy sucks. He acts like he has Alex Smith at QB.
