Bears' Caleb Williams Shows He's the Real Deal with Magical Pass, but Can't Overcome Mistakes.
Caleb Williams has finally solved one of the Bears’ most maddening problems - finding a quarterback capable of heroics few in the NFL can match. In a divisional-round playoff game against the Rams, Williams threw an unforgettable touchdown pass to force overtime. However, his impressive display was marred by three interceptions that led to the Rams' 20-17 victory.
The Bears' loss marks the end of their dream season and leaves them with little time to reflect on what went wrong. The team's focus shifts now to building themselves into a championship contender in the offseason.
Williams, who had been magical all season, was under pressure immediately after scrambling backward to keep his team alive. He then heaved the ball to tight end Cole Kmet, who was wide open in the back left corner as defensive backs Cobie Durant and Quentin Lake trailed. The pass was deemed 'ridiculous' by coach Ben Johnson, with him saying it's something you can't coach.
Although Williams struggled for most of the game, he surged late and had a chance to win it after forcing the Rams to punt on the first possession of overtime. However, his throw was short and picked off by Kamren Curl.
Despite the loss, Williams showed that he has what it takes to be a top quarterback in the league. The Bears have solidified their coach-quarterback pairing with Ben Johnson at the helm and Caleb Williams as the talented quarterback. This duo has the potential to take the team to new heights.
The most important thing the Bears did this season was finding their rhythm between Johnson and Williams, which looks set to be a key factor for their success in the future.

, like he's gotta step up his game if they wanna make it to the championship next year. I mean, three ints is way too many, even with all that magic he showed earlier... what was he thinking?! 
But at the same time, he did show some serious skills out there, and that pass to Kmet? Ridiculous indeed! Coach Johnson was right on the money about that one 
. I'm still hyped about this duo, though - Ben Johnson and Caleb Williams are like two peas in a pod 
... but they gotta work on their consistency, you know? And can't have those short throws turning into pick-6s 
!
! He's got that special something that can take his team to victory in no time 
. The way he dodged defenders and threw that long pass to Cole Kmet was insane 
! But, you know, it's not all sunshine and rainbows for him... he made some pretty rookie mistakes out there 
. Still, I think the Bears have found their QB in Williams and their coach in Ben Johnson - they're a solid duo 
... fingers crossed for them next season! 
But for real though, the Bears' loss stings, but I think they made some great progress this season. Building off that chemistry between Ben Johnson and Caleb Williams is gonna be KEY 
especially with them heading into the offseason. Can't wait to see what they do next! 
I mean, Caleb Williams is defo the real deal! He's got that magic touch, but like, he also showed us what can go wrong when you're under so much pressure 
! And yeah, finding their rhythm was super important for them, so I'm excited to see what next season brings 
! I mean, that one touchdown pass was straight fire 
. It's like he had a bit of an off game, but still managed to carry his team to victory.
. And I think the key to their success is finding that rhythm between them. Once they nail that down, watch out! The Bears could be unstoppable 
.
.
. I mean, it's one thing to throw a touchdown in the playoffs but forcing OT? That's next level stuff! 
. Caleb Williams is defo one of the most exciting QBs in the league right now 
! He showed off his magic with that sick pass to Cole Kmet, and it's clear he's got what it takes to be a top dog 
.
. One thing's for sure: I'm excited to see what this duo has in store for next season! 
his ability to make those impossible plays is just insane!!! the pass he threw to Cole Kmet was literally ridiculous 
but seriously though, that play showcased Williams' greatness and it's clear why people are saying he's the real deal 
like, I get it, interceptions happen, but 3?!?! 
it's frustrating to watch because we all know he's got this level of talent. BUT, at the same time, I'm kinda relieved that they lost? like, if they'd won, it would've been even more heartbreaking watching them give up that late lead 
. I don't know how they can build on that inconsistency. And coach Ben Johnson is right, that last throw was ridiculous 
.
. Sure, he made some mistakes but that's all part of the game, right? What I'm looking forward to seeing this offseason is how they build on their success and become a real contender for a championship 
Like, I get it, it's a lot of pressure, but 3 ints is a lot to swallow. Still, his ability to make plays like that one touchdown pass is insane, I mean who else can say they've done something 'ridiculous' and still get the win?
