00:00Caleb Williams throughout this year as you look at his rookie season stats was poked and prodded right especially in

00:07Comparison to the number two overall pick in Jaden Daniels and other QBs behind him like Bo Nix that also led his team

00:15To the postseason, but really when you stare at those numbers

00:19It wasn't all that bad for Caleb Williams a great touchdown to interception ratio more than

00:263,500 passing yards Donny his preseason season long passing yards prop was

00:323,400 and a hook we joked that if he even forded with that number

00:37He would have a top five passing yard season in the history of this Bears franchise

00:453,541

00:47Caleb Williams threw for the fifth most passing yards in a single season ever for a Chicago quarterback

00:54Nobody is thrown for more than 38

00:5650 passing yards Jared golf each of the past three seasons in Detroit through for at least

01:034,400 passing yards the Bears have never had a 4,000 yard passer

01:07That could be the first thing to Ben Johnson and Caleb Williams in tandem

01:12accomplished in

01:142025 they need to bolster up the offensive line

01:17They will certainly look to do so in the NFL drafting with over 80 million dollars in cap space once again

01:23This offseason Caleb Williams under far too much pressure duress and sacked for too many times

01:30Throughout his rookie season. That is number one

01:33But I think what Donnie said right there is hey first year head coach

01:38Second year quarterback who struggled at times throughout his rookie season

01:42When total last year was probably five and a half maybe six and a half seven and a half for a better

01:48Year in Chicago

01:49No, sir

01:50The wind total entering this year was eight and a half in the over had the juice the Bears roster everywhere else

01:59Talented enough Donnie that people thought Chicago could make a playoff run. That will be the expectation

02:06Entering 2025 even with a rookie head coach and Ben Johnson

02:11Exactly, but it looks like he is the quarterback whisperer

02:13Did you see that offense in Detroit?

02:15One offense in the NFL that you could just take with you anywhere

02:18It would have been Detroit dominant on the ground dominant in the air innovative play calling ultra-aggressive

02:23This is what you look forward to and you're not coming to a situation where of course

02:26It's not as good as the pieces that you have in totality in Detroit

02:30But you got some pretty good damn pieces all over the place. Everything matches up. You have to go into the draft

02:34Oh, we definitely need a tight end at this point. Oh, we really should look wide receiver

02:37Oh, we don't have anybody in the backfield here

02:39You have all those already there with some good draft capital and as you said a ton of money to spend this team will improve

02:46In the offseason and the biggest improvement already coming from you got one of the elite clay play callers in the NFL

02:52Do you want a quarterback sits back and looks at that and says, you know what play calls to come in?

02:55I hope this works here when you have a offense coin that is dialing up absolute routes like forget my first second or third read

03:02Everybody is open every play. That's what it felt like in Detroit

03:06And I think you're gonna get a taste of that right off the bat in Chicago
