Colts fans are doing the same delusional stuff with Richardson. 5 minutes to go and he has 40% completion and 85 yards, but OH OH OH he looked good on the last drive and they beat the PATS! Although I do think Williams will work out. He just isn’t the Superman people claimed he was. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No they arent and im not claiming he sucks. But much of his stats come on thr 2nd half. A lot of garbage in there. We were all told how he has awesome WRs. Has a TE. Got swift. Have good defense. They do need OL. But read a stat that hes like one of the top sacked QBs even when his line blocks. From a clean pocket he still finds ways to hold onto the ball and take sacks. Oh the Bears are the Bears. Clueless still. Wonder what coach will sign up to be part of that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TBayXXXVII 2,484 Posted December 9, 2024 The Panthers are way better (still not good), but light years better over the last 3 weeks than they were in the 20+ games with Bryce Young. That team still has a lot of talent issues, but Young doesn't look like train wreck he did last year. Williams isn't as bad as Young was, so if he makes similar strides next year, he could be pretty good. We'll see what happens. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Getting benched did him justice. He had time to sit back and watch without the pressure of learning on the fly. Some guys are fine with being thrown into the fire, others... maybe not. Hurts is quite overrated. He doesn't stink, but many make him out to be better than what he is. Hurts is a perfectly "adequate" QB who happens to have a great line and great weapons.

Hurts has played much better in the past but he’s been totally ordinary. There’s something to be said for not turning the ball over and picking up first downs with your legs. But I don’t think Philly goes far if they don’t open up the downfield passing attack. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Drizzay 699 Posted December 27, 2024 If he doesn't get some better coaching, he is going to turn into every other high QB draft pick that fizzled because of coaching. Bears fans just gotta hope that happens with them and not another team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hawkeye21 2,382 Posted December 27, 2024 Caleb would be having an amazing year on just about any team other than the Bears. The OL is terrible and the coaching sucks.

He keeps working on things in the right way, says the right things all the time, and has shown all the traits you want in first year QB. How many QBs come out and put up his numbers on a team with the worst offensive line in the league, under 2 different head coaches, and 3 offensive coordinators in their first season in the league? It seems Pete Carroll even has come out and said he has interest in the Bears head coaching job. They could probably use someone like him or Vrabel to set that tone in that building straight. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hardcore troubadour 14,941 Posted December 27, 2024 He thinks he can run around in the pocket like he did in college. Looks nice sometimes but most of the time he’s going to take a sack because unlike college, nearly everyone chasing him in the NFL is fast. He’s much better out of the pocket.

seafoam1 2,803 Posted December 28, 2024 20 hours ago, Hawkeye21 said: I'm not sure anymore. They should simple find their coach and work out a new GM with him. Poles is a "I'm staying out of it" guy. He refuses to accept ownership of his failures. He had the great trade, but then after that, he's hurtin'. Problem is, they need to find experience just to set things right. Probably Vrabel or Carroll. Whether they are the best candidates or not for next year is not the issue. The Bears need to stabilize their internal workings. No one there knows what a real head coach looks like. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
