Editor in Chief at Windy City Gridiron where I write about the #Bears, 🎙/📹 host of T Formation Conversation and co-host of Bear & Balanced at 2nd City Gridiron.
Caleb Williams’ good week continues as he was just named the Week 11 NFLPA Community MVP. Through his Caleb Cares foundation, he hosted 40 members of his youth football team in Chicago, “giving them unforgettable experiences, mentorship and inspiration both on and off the field.”

I wrote this article back in February, and through nine games, #Bears quarterback Caleb Williams has already surpassed his total passing yards on play action passes, with 692, after having 626 yards in 17 games last year.

Expect more play action for Caleb Williams in 2025 from Ben Johnson
More play-action is always a good thing, regardless of whether a team can run the ball effectively or not

Inspired by @stevenruiz.bsky.social talking about Caleb Williams's time to throw, I looked at what we can call Creation Time, which is the difference between time to pressure and time to throw when pressured, then plotted it against pressure to sack rate, per FTN.

By now, we've all seen this #Bears play because of Darnell Wright's awesome block, but Caleb Williams' spin away from pressure, his bullet throw moving to his left, and the phenomenal catch by rookie Colston Loveland. 🧑🍳😘🐻⬇️

Getting ready to prep the shell for this week's Sackwatch article, and one year ago, the #Bears allowed nine (9!) sacks to the Patriots. Up to that point in the season, the Bears had allowed 38 sacks.
This week, the Bears allowed no sacks, and to date, they are only at 14.
