Caleb Williams' 55.7 passer rating is the 11th-worst debut among all QBs picked first overall since 1970.
The list of performances worse than his includes: John Elway (0.0), Terry Bradshaw (19.3), Matthew Stafford (27.4), Troy Aikman (40.2) and Eli Manning (45.1).
Lovie Smith was a #Bears HC, through and through.
He said “If we beat the Packers twice and lose every other game, we had a successful season”
He went to a Super Bowl. He coached for Illinois. And on January 8th, 2023, he made the call to go for 2.
Here’s to you, Lovie —🐻⬇️
Remember how Ryan Poles' son was heartbroken over Justin Fields being traded?
He now has Caleb Williams as his phone background.

Ryan Poles went to Matt Eberflus’ house so they could call Justin Fields together to inform him of the trade.
Poles said it was really hard. Even having to tell his own son, who has a Fields jersey hanging in his room.
Thinking the Bears roster is so bad that Caleb Williams should force his way to the Commanders is such an uneducated opinion.
1) Learn how to pronounce Eberflus.
2) Bears smoked the Commanders 40-20 last year.
2) He thinks throwing to Terry McLaurin, Jahan Dotson, Zach Ertz, John Bates and Austin Ekeler is better than throwing to…
Keenan Allen, DJ Moore, Cole Kmet, Gerald Everett and D’Andre Swift and a team thats already hit 7 wins and has an additional top 10 pick in the draft.
3) Ryan Poles is safe next year no matter what. Bears have 9 draft picks in 2025, they have cash and the roster is stacked.
If Flus doesnt pan out then the Bears will have the most sought after HC position in the NFL.
Can’t say thank you enough to the city of Chicago for taking me in and embracing me. Thank you to the entire Bears organization and ownership for allowing me the opportunity to be part of such a historic franchise. But most of all thank you to my all my brothers that I played with. You all were the reason I attacked each day the way I did. I can’t thank you all enough for what y’all have meant to me over the last 3 years through the ups and downs. I wish each one of you nothing but success. Ready for this next chapter!
I wish things had gone differently for Justin Fields. The Bears failed him. I’m rooting for him in Pittsburgh. But Caleb Williams is the future and I’m happy we can stop with all the turmoil and move forward #InPolesWeTrust
. @KANYEWEST ASKED PERMISSION TO SAMPLE A SECTION OF A 1983 LIVE PERFORMANCE OF “IRON MAN” FROM THE US FESTIVAL WITHOUT VOCALS & WAS REFUSED PERMISSION BECAUSE HE IS AN ANTISEMITE AND HAS CAUSED UNTOLD HEARTACHE TO MANY. HE WENT AHEAD AND USED THE SAMPLE ANYWAY AT HIS ALBUM LISTENING PARTY LAST NIGHT. I WANT NO ASSOCIATION WITH THIS MAN!
As the #Bears assess their coaching staff, they have hired entrepreneur Jon Taffer from TV’s Bar Rescue as a consultant.
“Jon knows what makes a good staff,” George McCaskey whispered to me aggressively. “I saw him curse out those silly bartenders and knew I needed his help.”
An NFC executive on #Bears QB Justin Fields to ESPN.
"I just think we know what (Fields) is at this point - a great athlete and playmaker who misses some throws he shouldn't or doesn't always take the throws available to him. You can win some games with him, and he's got some elements to his game that are really impressive, but it's not sustainable long-term from a pocket-passing standpoint, in my opinion."
