I don't 100% know for sure that Fields not playing well is because of Nagy's playcalling, but I have confidence he's not playing as well as his competition in the same scheme.
Nagy as a HC has gone 12-4, 8-8, and 8-8 and the guy is the HC for the Bears so his QB's have been the usual crap.
12-4: 2018 Mitchell Trubisky (14) / Chase Daniel (2)
8-8: 2019 Mitchell Trubisky (15) / Chase Daniel (1)
8-8: 2020 Mitchell Trubisky (9) / Nick Foles (7)
1-2: 2021 Andy Dalton (2) / Justin Fields (1)
So, the guy is 29 and 22 with 38 games of Trubisky, 1 debut game with Fields, and 12 games with backup-caliber QBs in Daniels/Foles/Dalton.
So under center it's been 51 games with a bust, a rookie, and backups. The Bears may as well try to dig up a new HC if they think Nagy is going to wreck Fields, but he's done quite well as far as being the HC of a franchise that absolutely may not have a good QB.
