Caleb Williams is the latest in a long line of #1 overall quarterbacks to enter the NFL. So it shouldn't be a surprise the expectations for him are high, even as a rookie. That said, everybody knows his situation. The Chicago Bears have a less-than-stellar track record for developing quarterbacks....
One thing about the NFL is you will never know what to expect. Players who seemed untouchable at one point could be traded out of nowhere. The reasons always vary: money, age, personality, etc. The Chicago Bears have learned this well over the past few years. They acquired Chase Claypool from...
People are trying to determine what the Chicago Bears will be with Caleb Williams at quarterback in 2024. Most see them as a legitimate contender for a wild card playoff spot. Even as a rookie, Williams should be at least as good as Justin Fields was last year. Given the array of talent around him,...
By the end of February, the Chicago Bears knew that Caleb Williams would be their pick at #1 overall in the draft. Their scouts had spent three years evaluating him at Oklahoma and USC. They loved his progress as a passer, teammate, and leader. He had unique traits that are often hard to find....
Caleb Williams made it through OTAs and minicamps without any concerns. Aside from a small handful of missed throws, he looked every bit like the #1 overall pick he is. The Chicago Bears are encouraged by his progress. Even the #1 defense has admitted the young quarterback is learning fast. He's...
The Chicago Bears didn't do a ton of big spending in free agency this year. That was likely by design. GM Ryan Poles has said several times that he wants to avoid the veteran market. Sinking big money into free agents every year is not the right way to build a winning team. That said, it doesn't...
One way teams sometimes try to help a young quarterback grow comfortable during his transition to the NFL is by building his confidence in practice. This is done in several ways. One is having him face the #2 or #3 defenses, making it easier to make big throws and find consistency. Another is to...
There was a lot of debate among Chicago Bears fans and the media during the early stages of the off-season. Many wanted to keep Justin Fields. He'd shown significant progress down the stretch of last season. Teammates seemed to love him. Better to trade the #1 overall pick for another mountain of...
Finding quality talent on the undrafted market is often what separates good teams from the rest. It isn't a coincidence that the Chicago Bears had significant team success the last time they found great value in the undrafted market. Names like Bryce Callahan and Roy Robertson-Harris helped them...
Rookie quarterbacks almost always struggle in their first year. That is part of the process of going from the relatively basic defenses of college to the more complex and diverse variations they'll see in the NFL. Most expect Caleb Williams to endure the same. It isn't about whether he will have...
The Chicago Bears knew that if they were going to start earning more respect offensively, they'd have to add more firepower that opposing defenses would respect. Adding Keenan Allen in March was a big step in the right direction. However, GM Ryan Poles felt they needed more. After securing...
The final Chicago Bears minicamp practice concluded on Thursday. It involved light work with a few interesting developments. The defense again owned the 11-on-11 team period, holding the offense out of the end zone. However, Caleb Williams got his shots in with some excellent throws throughout the...
