00:00This next quarterback finished as QB 16 through 20 touchdowns and only six interceptions

00:05But I think the bar was set so high that it was almost impossible for this young man to achieve

00:10Who is it and what happened this season?

00:13what happened is the Chicago Bears which when you take the Chicago Bears and

00:18You have the head coaching there and the offensive coordinator there and the culture there that is poor that has not developed young quarterbacks

00:27Let's see ever. I mean, is that a hot take folks? Is it I mean you want to go back to Jim McMahon?

00:34Like when do you want to go back to the Bears developing a quarterback because I'm curious because it just it hasn't happened

00:39They haven't had prolific Bears quarterback. Those two words just have not really existed in space and time that you've developed in-house. Okay

00:47Caleb Williams if you look at his stats and you compare him to Bo Nix and I took the picture away you would think okay

00:53That's probably Caleb Williams here, right 29 touchdowns, whatever it no, he'll Williams just 20 touchdowns

00:58It looks a lot more like what we expect out of Bo Nix on the high end

01:02And instead this is the very low end of Caleb Williams. So how do you fix this scale?

01:06Well, you fix it with the right head coach a lot of ramblings and rumblings are going on about maybe Mike McCarthy being that guy

01:13And he's a guy that has developed quarterbacks before he worked with Favre. He worked with Rogers

01:17He's worked with Dak people can make jokes about that

01:20but you know what the guy has a track record there and he's a stable coach and

01:25Caleb Williams sometimes his own worst enemy

01:27He takes far too many sacks led the league in sacks taken too

01:30So he's got to learn to get rid of the football. He holds the football too long

01:34He tries too hard and if you saw something last night to the Jaden Daniels performance

01:38It's I think a maturity beyond his years where you would see it wasn't there

01:43Jane Daniels would roll out instead of taking a sack. He just throws the football away

01:47I can't tell you how many balls I watched Peyton Manning and Tom Brady throw away in my life

01:51That's the mark of a quarterback who gets it. I'm not taking sacks Stroud took too many sacks last night that hurt them

01:57I kept pushing him out of field goal range push him out of big spots

01:59Sometimes you just got to live to fight another down and that's something Caleb Williams better have to learn to do quickly

02:04Otherwise, he's gonna continue to struggle to become an elite level quarterback, which is what he was drafted to be
