Looks like there was a lengthy interview with Pace and Nagy. Not sure where it is, but if you look up one of the beat writers' Twitter accounts they all pretty much tweeted a blow by blow.

Pace and Nagy are both saying very clearly that this is "an open QB competition" and both Mitch and Nick are aware of it and have embraced the competition. We'll see.

Mitch will be the first QB on the field on day 1...BUT...both QB's will get equal time and it will be evenly divided with the 1's also. That sounds like legit competition.

If that's the structure of the competition, I'll be (pleasently) shocked if Mitch wins it.

Kind of what everyone said. 50/50 with Mitch having shot#1.

Or Nagy will be the first coach to run a 2 QB offense full time.

Maybe Mitch can help out at the RB depth.

Still pisses me off they were just flat out unprepared at the start of the year last year.

I’d be more pissed if we ended better than we started and a slow start cost us. But sadly we were basically the same flawed team in week 15 as we were in week 1.

I’m happy to hear him say he would do it different this year, shows a willingness to self evaluate and change.
