What to make of Caleb Williams' preseason performances with the Chicago Bears | FNIA | NFL on NBC

[JefroBodine]

They’re forgetting CW is practicing everyday against Bears starting defense. He’s seeing every front and scheme he’ll face in the regular season against a top 10 defense.

[TheRealJistic]

Caleb did it against the Bills starters. People need to let him be him.

[bigdogstatus]

They are forgetting the Caleb practices against a top 5 defense of the Chicago Bears and Caleb has said their defense has not been easy on him in training camp.

[dannydoesthis]

As a lifelong bears fans in the Chicago area, I haven't heard a single person say we're going to win the super bowl. We're just excited to have a good, competitive team in Chicago again that seem to actually care.

[jayinko]

I see vets really hate Caleb. He says that Caleb will win Rookie of the Year but the aggression towards him was ridiculous.

[rayy]

We Bears fans know what could happen. We’ve been there so many times. Caleb has high expectations, but he doesn’t come off cocky. But, damn, these guys are so damn super critical of Caleb. Jayden Daniels and these other rookies do not get this type of criticism. No one in Chicago is expecting the Bears to make the Super Bowl or even win the division. No one told Rodney Harrison that. They are just making up shit. The hate is crazy for this kid who has done nothing but come in and work his ass off.

[DVe-fwsj]

If Caleb stays healthy he is taking the Bears far

[johnwatkins]

He's not playing hero ball. We've seen him make anticipatory throws all through college and camp. The nitpick shit is annoying

[officialSTRFE]

Add them to the others who are gonna be on us when we win the SB this year. Caleb said 8, it starts this year.

[golfman]

Still waiting for DC to control Brock Prudy. The hype for Caleb is real.

[MarcoLiftz]

Caleb played against the Bills starters and cooked em a bit… 🤷🏻‍♂️

[jodymcgee]

Book this Quote Bears 13 win season as we have the Defense to stop scoring and the weapons to score, remember ii said it Please and Thank you

[nobandz]

why do people only mention that d's are playing vanilla the OC is also callin' vanilla plays lol

[delasoul]

Caleb is making the nfl look easy when he scrambles.. in college, he made it look because he was clearly the best player on the field almost every single game and that does translate it does show up in the NFL so I won’t be surprised if he plays well this first year, but he needs to rely on his teammates, defense, and hopefully not too many times he’ll put himself in position where he can turn the ball over, but I think the more he plays the better he will get

[qvrhearne]

Everyone acts like bro CANT play in structure, like ik they watch film lol

[NathanHoffman-mrjn]

Dude obviously he can do it in the nfl. We just seen it he did it against buffalo starters that’s coming from someone that doesn’t watch the bears

[michaelmackey]

He’s practicing against the Bears defense, anything but vanilla. And have you noticed that he isn’t turning the ball over.

[Will-fj]

I don't understand they say Caleb Williams is playing against vanilla defense in the pre season.but so is bo nix.make it make sense

[Mr.Smith]

I love These guys think they're slick. "OH, he's not all that! He's not playing against anyone. But yeah, he's going to be good." And in the very next breath while talking about another SLURP SLURP GULP!!!! 🤦🏾‍♂️

[createluxuryliving]

I agree with this take I want the defense to win games and Caleb to just not lose games.. We don’t need to see a Caleb explosion till year 3 let the defense carry us this season, and as a Bear fan I want to watch him mature and he hit his limit but I do t want those insane expectations on him year 1.
