It really does suck how much Caleb’s achievements during his rookie year get sandbagged by the malevolent force that is Bear Energy. It’s really fuckin annoying to see people calling him a bust when he’s had to fight diabolical coaching and personnel decisions from the jump.
No one worth listening to is even considering the possibility of Williams being a bust, but it’s also disingenuous to claim that his season has been successful in any way.
Caleb holds the ball for a distressingly long time, his sack percentage on pressures is sky high, and his deep ball accuracy is non-existent.
I dont care for the kid. I think he needs to toughen up mentally in ways. But the talent is there. Its too obvious to ignore. Id like to see him be successful with the simple stuff, not always having to make the dramatic plays. But hes definitely a future franchise qb.
This moment was so blown out of proportion. A bunch of people looked way too much into a stupid stare that they started to see it as Stroud “little brothering” Caleb. It was a dumb momentary glare that people turned into this whole disrespect narrative.
This post keeps coming up. Let’s be clear, the goal is the playoffs. And if you look at them you could say clearly one is having a great season. But then you’d have to remind your self being avg for an entire game is enough to get you to the playoffs, and being good in mostly 4th quarters but mediocre in quarters 1-3 probably won’t get you there.
57 sacks you forgot.
He simply hasn’t been very good yet besides a few flashes late game and maybe 3-4 games out of 14 has he been decent throughout it. When he’s turned the corner we will know it but let’s not try to cherry pick stats to delude ourselves into thinking he’s there already. Hes not
Caleb is gonna be fine. Might not be here, but he’ll be just fine eventually. I mean…. if Darnold can, he can. The problem now is, Bears moving past a wasted season and can they get it right before stagnation sets in.
Stroud also gets to play the fuckin AFC South like half the season lol, Detroit GB and Minny tooled him
This moment was totally overblown tho he obviously wasn’t trying to talk down to him lol
I found it interesting during the bears game how much sacks were a QB stat, but yesterday watching Stroud the broadcast blamed his sacks on protection.
It’s only a QB stat if you paint your nails and everyone hates you apparently.
Okay but we’re gone 3-9. And Caleb hasn’t looked as good as those numbers suggest. Let’s not be delusional here. And im a diehard.
