"I saw Caleb Williams start off his 2025 season, on Monday Night Football, looking every bit like the second coming of Patrick Mahomes that he was advertised to be. He completed his first 10 passes. He was so deft on his feet that Minnesota pass rushers could never get home. And he spread the wealth, completing passes to five different receivers on his first drive alone."
"The Bears had jettisoned their entire coaching staff during the offseason, replacing former head coach Matt Eberflus with red hot Detroit Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson. Johnson, a man whose face is set to "don't fuck with me" at all times, was tasked with refashioning Chicago's offense, Williams included, in the image of the 2024 Lions juggernaut: dominant line play, chunk plays down the field, all of that fun shit."
Caleb Williams began the 2025 season with an electrifying start, completing his first 10 passes and leading a touchdown drive that featured throws to five different receivers. The Bears entered the season with a revamped coaching staff, replacing Matt Eberflus with Ben Johnson and aiming to mirror the 2024 Lions' offensive identity through dominant line play and explosive downfield plays. Early performance suggested the transformation was ahead of schedule, with Williams appearing nearly unstoppable. After the hot start, Minnesota adjusted its approach and pressure increased, and the Bears' offense failed to score another touchdown until garbage time.
