Analysis: Bears coaches say they are seeing exactly what they need to see from Caleb Williams and defensive players are seeing him find ways to beat them more often.
Bears coaches who are the closest to what he's doing and opponents from the defense each day in practice say to forget it, and Williams is right where he needs to be.
Whether it's the passes he's throwing that are batted down at the line, or the offense being generally outplayed by the defense or anything else, the Bears insist Williams is on track toward where he needs to be for the game that counts most, the Sept. 8 opener against Houston. "'OK, got it. On to the next one.' But he has been doing a good job reading with his feet, sticking within progression, recognizing coverage structures. So seeing all those things is what really gives you the confidence moving forward."
"The D-lineman that's being blocked and he's right in front, he knows, 'Ok, I can't get close to him so I'm just going to put my hands up.' So I can't make a fair assessment to say he's gonna have a problem with that. It's just that it happens in practice because of the way we practice.
