[@jamesmarshall6619]

Great summary. Josh Allen and Mahomes had to learn it's okay to take 5 yards, not every play needs to be a splash play and Caleb will hopefully learn that. I'd rather try and teach a guy to play a bit more safe than try and teach a guy to be more aggressive. NFL teams will at times make him see if he can take those 5 to 7 yard plays every down all game to test whether he has the patience to do that and for guys like Williams it's so hard to do as it goes against his instincts but he just has to learn a bit of patience and realize, we know what you can do and it's great, now add on to it so defenses can see there is more to you and then you'll be unstoppable.

[@8barbies779]

jamesmarshall - you nailed it bud. it's so hard for guys like allen, mahomes & caleb because they've got that rocket arm. it's hard to break the hero ball habit because it's so, so damn fun. i was a QB at a super small highschool - i thought i was the shit, i thought i could read defenses. played the big schools a couple of times my senior year and boy was i humbled. those defenses were so much different. i used to get away with ripping it all over the yard and it was so fucking fun. played the big boys - figured out i couldn't but still couldn't make myself take the check down. i know it sounds shitty but... it just wasn't fun, it's so fun to be a QB and rip it. i saw an interview with Josh Allen & i could tell he was basically saying the same thing - he just tried to say it more professionally hahahaha.

[@jamesmarshall6619]

@@8barbies779heck man, I never played qb, too short, but if I did I'm sure I would be playing hero ball as well. I doubt I would have ever been a decent starting qb at any level of high school, I have no pocket awareness playing NCAA14, I doubt I have pocket awareness in real life.

[@commanderjoj6426]

That’s Lincoln Riley’s system. 99.5% of snaps are going to be either from shotgun or occasionally the pistol. Just something Caleb was rarely ever asked to do was play under center. It’s that way with many college QB’s anymore. To me, I believe Caleb has most all of the traits needed to be a special QB. He has all the skills that cannot be coached, and should get more refined as time goes by. Plus, he’ll have D.J. Moore and Keenan Allen to throw to next season, which should help.

[@e2rqey]

Caleb went from being overrated to comically underrated. Its ridiculous that people thought the Bears would give up the chance to draft him. He consistently does things at the QB position that you can't even pull off in Madden. He wont have to play hero ball on the Bears and they've built a great offense around him to give him a really good chance at succeeding. He's going into a way better situation than most 1st overall QBs. His ceiling is absurdly high. I hope he gets there because it will be amazing to see that level of play at the QB position in the NFL.

Excellent A+ Breakdown. I do think people often put too lofty of a baseline for what NFL success is on these college QBs, but this was excellent stuff. Like right now the 12th best QB in the NFL overall has a LOT of flaws to their game; let alone someone whose closer to 20th like a Baker Mayfield or even Russell Wilson at this point. The criticisms of Caleb taking the easy play are fair but what is interesting is most of his criticisms are things that Bo Nix absolutely excels at; yet people hate Bo lol or at least they hate the idea of him as a 1st rounder (weird but okay). Being good in the quick game and short game has a LOT to do with presnap reads and confidence. Caleb lacks zero confidence and will be starting a lot of games so I am confident he will progress in that area.

The bears are going to be so good this year. FINALLY. I was disappointed about fields getting traded. But now that i know this is what we’re getting, and the team hes going to step into…. Im SUPER excited BEAR DOWN BABY 🏆

[@xxcelr8rs]

Great accuracy, He has the goods. I still say every QB needs to sit for a year.

[@DaBaltimoron]

I think you undersell the pressure he seems to be constantly under. Of course he's not going to have textbook drops or mechanics when he's constantly running for his life.

[@stevenvox6549]

That's why you stay in the pocket so the throws are on time and the receivers can run their routes as planned. May not be so easy in the pros.

[@launchbase4944]

​@@stevenvox6549what pocket

[@Name-jw4sj]

Which is more of a reason why he isn't worthy of first overall. He doesn't play in rhythm. You think NFL pressure is going to be any easier? Pressure is a lot worse in the NFL dude.

[@DaBaltimoron]

@@Name-jw4sj every NFL line protects better than that garbage he was behind at SC

[@Name-jw4sj]

​@@DaBaltimoron Which is why he is going to be a bust. Dude played in a terrible o-line and still hasn't learn to play in rhythm and anticipation. If you have a bad o-line than playing in rhythm is that much more important.

[@iamjustishype3859]

The athletic ability isnt in question here. Its gis ability to lead at the next level and his riselience when things get tough

[@ReceiverJay18]

This might be the best breakdown on him I've ever seen. The missed pre-snap and progression reads mixed in with him trying to play hero ball a lot are really concerning, but the upside is way too high to hold those against him.. I think he can and will be coached up on those things.. My ideal scenario would be to have him sit a year while you coach it. This won't be the case and most teams don't have that option, but it would be best for his confidence and the mental game at the next level. I hope he ends up being the talent he was in college because boy was he fun to watch, but only time will tell..

[@DozenDeuce]

Caleb reminds me Favre. You always knew Farve would throw 2-3 interceptable balls a game. And even if you caught them all, he might still pull off a miracle in the 4th quarter.

[@loubest37]

He hardly threw any interceptions in college. Favre wasn't a particularly intelligent player. Williams impresses as very bright, with a high capacity to learn.

[@dylankrejci9965]

@@loubest37yeah, I really love the pocket awareness and pace of going through his reads. You can tell he really understands the game.

[@dominique9054]

@@loubest37 hardly played any comp in college either so that’s hard to argue

[@MFBloosh]

@@dylankrejci9965 Caleb moves great in the pocket, but he also takes forever (like Justin) to throw after the ball is snapped. A lot of these crazy plays only happen because of that issue, and he's forced to escape the pocket or move around more than he should be, almost skittishly. I love that he keeps his eyes downfield though when that happens, something that Justin had trouble doing until this last year. But yeah, with Caleb, you can see his strengths and his weaknesses all in the same play.

[@waynebender1032]

CW reminds me of Aaron Rodgers

[@davidcarr2689]

Awesome Video👌

[@almightysosa3007]

Caleb is Aaron rodgers pocket presence with mahomes arm strength.

[@fpsdoug7081]

And Ryan Leaf's mentality

[@almightysosa3007]

@@fpsdoug7081 how so?

[@xxcelr8rs]

Accuracy might be as good as Rodgers. Rodgers is pin point very high percentage. I still think a rookie QB should sit for a year.

[@knicksfan4752]

Best draft analysis is the business!! They better not fu**ing delete your videos again this year I’m not playing!!! We want videos everyday until draft lol!!

[@Tobi.O]

Great breakdown. Can you do one on Jayden Daniels please and thank you when you get the chance. 🙏🏾

[@ThinkingFootball]

Jayden Daniels will be up on the Patreon this week, can't upload that one to YT sadly

[@SamyDLuffy-bh6ui]

Caleb aint perfect, but this dude can ball, holy shit !!

[@jimbo2287]

Against shit teams lmao they didn’t even make the playoffs

[@tonysoprano1930]

⁠@@jimbo2287Well his defense was one of the worst if not the Worst in case you forgot defense wins championships

[@PzShockz]

Caleb williams will be the best quarterback in the nfl the day he is drafted. Better than mahomes, allen , burrow, prescott, jackson, he will own them all.

[@dshepherd35]

Name one nfl Defense that runs 3-3-5 ✋

[@yunglord9919]

You guys called CJ the best in last years draft when noone would, happy y‘all can finally show college footage again! Excited for the other prospects. Keep up the amazing work!

[@jeanfourcade]

I remember teh CJ Stroud call, against all the hype. Impressive.

[@MIchaelalverio]

He’s going to be a great Bear

[@TheFatOrangeYak]

hopefully it is easier to "coach down" the hero ball than it would be to "couch up" things like footwork and mechanics

[@bb-jp7er]

Lots of clean pockets in these clips and those USC wide receiver's definitely were good at getting separation. He's shifty and can throw a nice ball. I'm still not sold on him being the answer for the Bears at least. Let's see what Williams can do with an average offensive line going against NFL defenses. We will find out.

[@vandercooks]

You didn’t watch a lick of USC football if you think the Oline was good

[@raymondbrolly18499]

Separates the pros from the shmos 😂 This young man looks great. Real arm strength. 🐻⬇️

[@Fleury4]

He looks like Aaron Rodgers with mannerisms and release. As someone who watches no college football.

[@jduncanandroid]

Hmmm... locking onto targets, inconsistent footwork, lack of anticipatory throws, slow processing of the defense, making poor reads, trying to force passes, taking too long to make a decision and throw, bad decision making, fumble risks... why does this all sound familiar?

[@Boxinglobster]

The college breakdowns are back! Hopefully youtube lets you keep them up this time!
