In the second hour, Danny Parkins and Matt Spiegel got to the bottom of an important question. Did Bears coach Matt Nagy have fun on the bye week? Because according to Nagy, “This is no one’s fault but everybody’s.” He mentions that mentor Andy Reid is a master when it comes to winning out of the bye week. Nagy wishes he was like that. Yikes! How about taunting in the NFL when compared to baseball? Imagine White Sox star Tim Anderson hitting a home, flipping his bat toward the opposition’s dugout and then the umpires TAKING THAT HOME RUN AWAY. That’s what the NFL is doing with its taunting crackdown. Also, Bears rookie Justin Fields spoke about quarterbacks who tend to rush more than others and what he has learned from Ravens star Lamar Jackson.
