​@@melvindoo643I don't know what you are watching but Daniels is clearly the best QB out of this draft class. Maybe Caleb passes him someday but the way Daniels pulled Washington out of the basement is impressive. Washington was considered the worst possible landing spot before the season.

[@melvindoo643]

@@peterbruno657 WRONG they had a top 8 rated oline coming into the season a top 3 defensive play caller in Dan Quinn weapons all over the place on offense nobody once said it was the worst landing spot Dan Orlovsky even predicted Daniel’s would have the best year because Washington was the best landing spot for a young qb because kingsbury went there to become the OC never once said Daniel’s wasn’t having a better year then Caleb but put Caleb on the commanders and Daniel’s on the bears commanders have the same amount wins as they do now and bears are still a 4 win team at best there’s changing the facts that Caleb is more talented and if commanders could redo the draft and draft anybody they want from this years draft they would pass on Daniel’s for Williams in a heartbeat

[@Dimezprod]

Caleb is getting let down by bad coaching. But it's on him to complete his passes when there are open recievers. I saw him skip over easy targets just run around and get sacked. Get the guy competent coaching.

Sam Howell 6'1" 220 lbs | Caleb Williams 6'1" 215 lbs. Here are some numbers that show similarities. Sam Howell 2023 season stats: Passing Yards 3,946 / Sacks 65 / 6 games with 300 yards passing Caleb Williams Passing Yards 3,393 / Sacks 67 / 4 games with 300 yards passing Both hold the ball too long, take sacks and do not play on time/schedule in structure of offense.

Coaching can definitely help and change the mindset in that. We have seen numerous other rookie qbs start rough with some flare and end up being great. We have also seen them fizzle out, and that could be from the player, coach, or a mixture of both. Washington when howell was there wasn't the best org.

2.5 seconds ,get rid of ball. Most sacks are because he holds the ball.5-6-7-8 seconds .Can't expect the OL to protect that long .

[@vicnoy3684]

it is because he is trying to wait for his team mate to be open. Did you see when he has the protection and the WR is on the right route he get the ball quick.You also have to consider the bad situation he is on right now. Imagine 2 coaches were fired.He will be fine.OLin Kreutz said CW has amazing grip on the ball where the opponent can not intercept it. Watch the first game against the Lions, imagine he is the only player who scored 3TD against Lions this year.Remember he is a rookie and in bad situation.

[@travisoshea]

@ yea exactly!!!

[@briansmith6325]

Anyone blaming Williams for the Bears failures need to check their expectations. The kid is a rookie. Just bc he is picked first doesnt mean he'll revive a franchise in a single season. He has more potential than any Bears QB in the last 30 years, possibly ever. The problem is the Mahomes effect. You get an abnormal situation where a kid comes in and balls out and everyone now wants to see that kind of immediate success. Patience in the NFL is gone. Its win now or get to the door. This is lunacy. There isnt a QB in the league that could lead the Bears to the playoffs rn with this horrible line, not a single one. Caleb is that dude, he is part of a mess that is the Bears organization and he has made plays that atteibuted to losses, but to say he has more blame than any other player is an absurd, elementary manner of thinking.

[@nathanschwenn3388]

The bears need great offensive lineman and great defensive lineman in order to win games. You have to dominate the line of scrimmage on a consistent basis. The bears will never win until the Mcshitskies sell the team. The owners are dog shit. I think bears fans should boycott going to games until this team gets there shit together.

Nearly 70 sacks, most of those are on Caleb, he holds onto the ball longer than anyone else in the league at 3.2 seconds with grade A receivers. That means he’s having a hard time reading defenses and isn’t seeing the field well. Caleb ain’t him, not this year anyway.

[@robnewsome2407]

I think it's a mix of both but I think he can develop. I don't think Ben Johnson is going there though

[@Keithjhall]

Let's not get carried away with putting MOST of the blame on Caleb for those sacks. He's definitely responsible for maybe 20% of them. Fired HC and Three OC's is not a recipe for success for any rookie QB. Nix and Daniels are playing behind top 5 O-lines in the league and solid coaching. Caleb needs a great coach next year or it's going to be an up hill battle for him.

[@robnewsome2407]

@Keithjhall Yes and he's still a rookie so there is a learning curve. I'm not saying he's going to be good or bad yet, it's to early to tell and while he does have good receivers, the Bears are hot mess otherwise. Only time will tell

Drive1: -2&1, nice check down to Swift -2&5, Wright overset and allowed 10 a free run at Caleb who got a nice chip from Swift but force otp for throw away -3rd&5, Caleb had 2 open hot reads but was late to Allen and short. Allen should have caught it Drive2: -3rd&6, Rome settled but should have kept running (incomplete) vs cover-2 deep middle Drive3: -2&7, Caleb stepped into the SACK for no reason. Had wide open check down to swift with a lead blocker in Johnson -2&10, Kmet and Keenan both wide open and settled vs zone. Caleb passed on both and got pressured at 3.5+ second mark. Throw away Drive4: -2nd&3, Caleb again has over 3 seconds before trying to scramble and takes SACK instead of taking a quick check down for 10+ and calling a TO. Would have left 6-7sec for hailmary attempt or sideline throw for FG Drive5: -3rd&9, blitz off right (5-man), pressure gets to Caleb right at 3 sec. Had Allen underneath for about 5 and Kmet for a 1st down on a late release. Took hit/SACK instead Drive6: -1st&10(:24 in 3rd), exotic blitz cause miscommunication on the line for a SACK rather than throw. Not on Caleb but he could have zipped it out to swift, thrown it away, or not retreated for a 14 yard sack -2nd&24, Caleb threw into double coverage which would have been most likely picked. Batted at the line. Had DJ who he skipped over in the progression and Rome wide open in a clean pocket Drive7: -2nd&9, Caleb panicked and dirted a screen. 2 lead blockers and 10+ yards before the next defensive player. Swift looked visibly annoyed with Caleb -3rd&9, zone blitz was picked up well but Caleb panicked and stepped up into the SACK. Had Allen wide open for a 1st down Drive8: -4th&inches, this is a reference to Caleb’s mistakes but what a play to DJ for the 1st -1st&10 (2:05 in 4th), Caleb drops the snap and is SACKed. Pressure arrives in under 3 sec. -3rd&14, Caleb shows talent on conversion -1st&10 (:38 in 4th), Caleb had Kmet wide open over the middle for 10+ but holds it for 3.5 sec before getting pressured and throws it away -2nd&10, Caleb gets upset over calling TO but the coach saved him from a delay of game. No one was set with less than 2 seconds left. On the actual play, it was a great throw and WR choice. Rome should have turned for back shoulder not over the shoulder -3rd&10, bad accuracy and choice throwing into triple coverage. 3 man route on max-pro but Allen had 1on1 -4th&10, DJ beat his guy for game winning TD but Caleb held it too long on a know free runner play.

I don’t think he’s a bust by any means but he does have some blame here. The coaching and organization is and has been absolutely atrocious.

Anything passed 10-15 yds is not going to be accurate at least consistently. This is also why his interceptions have been down too since the beginning of the year.

I agree with you that he cares about his reputation, but he has been wishing this into existence since before there was even an opening there on his podcasts. And he is also VERY biased towards Cali guys (Caleb from USC, Stafford, McVay, 49ers). I don’t what to think.

CHI is a terrible job opening. Good luck being in 4th for the next half decade. Maybe a 3rd place if they have a lucky year or MIN implodes

[@jamesjaworski1103]

His yards come after being down multiple scores

[@Keithjhall]

🤣😂The team has only scored first ONCE this year. Thank you captain obvious. What difference does that make?!

Ryan Poles and Warren were hired after the Bear's ownership took it upon themselves to hire grifter Matt Eberflus. Ryan Poles is a great GM that was put in a bad situaton by Bear's ownership. In my opinion Eberflus is a grifter and a con-artist that bee-ull-she-itted the MaCaskey family into hiring him. Lets keep in mind that Ryan Poles is a first time general manager that tried to manage an incompetent head coach that was hired by the team's owner prior to Ryan Poles being hired. It was very difficult for Poles manage grifter Eberfus whom had a relationship with ownership longer than Poles had a relationship with ownership. That is the situation the McCasky's put Ryan Poles in when they hired that grifter Eberflus. Ryan Poles probably would have hired someone else other than Eberflue in first place. Ryan Poles was not given the opportunity to hire someone else because, ownership had already hired grifter Eberflus. Ryan Poles and Warren are both qualified for their jobs. Poles and Warren's being hired has nothing to do with DEI. How did Ryan Poles know Eberflus could not do something as simple as manage a game clock and throw a challenge flag at the right time? Ryan Poles is doing his best to build this team. Claypool and Nate Davis were not professionals at their jobs. Ryan Poles can hire players but, the player ultimately has to do his job. I am on board with Caleb Williams because the Bears drafted him. Did I want to keep Justin Fields? Yes I did but, Ryan Poles has to manage the Bear's finances as well as get good players. Ryan Poles is not only responible for getting good talent but, he has do also keep the Bears out of cap space hell. I understand that Poles did not want to pay Justin $50 million dollars. Eberflus was a bad hire by Bear's ownership not Warren and Poles. Amegadje was a great pick for where Poles drafted him. Amegadje was injured and missed games at the start of the season. When he healed Amegadje had to be thrown into the fire right away with no experience. Remember he missed training camp due an injury he suffered while at Yale. Amegadje does not look as good in 2024 as he should look in 2025. Ryan Poles has drafted some very good players Eberflus did not know what he was doing with the player's developement. The Bear's ownership got sucker by Eberflus' ability to talk football but not actually know how to coach football. I do not know who the Bear's next head coach is going to be. I like Ben Johnson. I like Flores. I like Dan Lanning at Oregon. There are many coahes that can help the Bears. I hope Ryan Poles stays with the Bears because, he needs to be allowed to hire his choice for the Bear's head coaching job. By the way what you said about Ben Johnson wanting another GM because, he will not get along with Ryan Poles makes no sense. It makes no sense because, he does not know Ryan Poles so: how does he know he will not get along with him. The Bear's ownership should not fire Ryan Pole because ownership set Ryan Poles up to fail by hiring Eberflus before they hire Ryan Poles. If Ben Johnson does not understand what Bears ownership did to Ryan Poles; Ben Johnson should not be hired in Chicago. Ownership needs to allow it's GM and Team President to do their jobs. Bear Down!

I’m sorry but when I watch him I see zero talent. Where’s the talent? He seems lost and scared. Everytime he throws the ball down the field he’s off target.

[@jeffortman6395]

Vrabal to Chicago. We don't need another coordinator trying to be a HC.

[@fahadmuhammad9760]

If you are smart enough you would not take the Chicago bears head coaching job. It's that simple. Horrible franchise.

[@zclan4130]

@@ZangyaksMac jones and Zach Wilson also had highlights. Doesn’t mean they were gonna last. Caleb came into the league extremely cocky and is clearly not the player who he thought he was gonna be
