I think the thing we are missing regarding Caleb Williams reaction to the injury yesterday is his love for winning, the city, and football.
A Grade 1 hamstring can cause sharp pain early on. Caleb didn’t know the severity, so the thought of the season going out the window and letting the city and team down probably weighed heavily on him in that moment. The offense dropped 59 in Week 1, and the Bears likely win yesterday if Caleb doesn’t go down, too. So all of those emotions factored into his genuine and authentic reaction. This could and still might be a special season.
But anyone calling him soft or saying his reaction was over the top is absurd. I can’t believe it’s even a topic.
Notre Dame should’ve been in over Miami, bama, and 2 other teams.
They are the best in the country currently how they are playing.
“It’s about 12 best teams playing each other in college playoffs”
Those aren’t the best 12 teams in the country 😂
Christian McCaffrey today: “I always plan to play. I feel great about where I'm at. Unfortunately, when you have the injury history that I have, sometimes when you don't practice, things get blown out of proportion. But I feel great.”
