There's a lot of pressure on Caleb Williams' broad shoulders and though it's a small sample size, Bears fans should be encouraged by what they saw in the preseason from their new franchise player.
In a draft where six quarterbacks were taken in the top 12 selections, preseason still meant the most for the quarterback taken first among them: Caleb Williams. Chicago Bears general manager Ryan Poles had spent two-and-a-half offseasons curating a perfect landing spot for a young quarterback. With the help of the Carolina Panthers and their abysmal 2023 record, Poles ended up with the pick of the litter after having secured Carolina's selection in a trade earlier that same year.
Watch how Williams squares his shoulders to his target too as he throws. Dare I say, it's almost Patrick Mahomes-esque. There's not much a defense can do that far after the ball is snapped — it's just not possible to cover your man for that long as a defender. If Williams can keep that aspect of his game intact against real competition, NFL defenses are going to have a problem on their hands.
