The Chicago Bears took down the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday afternoon. The offense put on an impressive show in a 31-23 win over Atlanta. The main reason for that offensive explosion was the return of star quarterback Caleb Williams.
Williams hadn't started since Chicago's Week 2 loss to the Minnesota Vikings, but now he's back and looking as strong as ever. He finished the game with 30 completions on 36 attempts for 305 yards and one touchdown pass. Williams also masterfully used the air attack in tandem with the rushing attack to put up big numbers.
After the game, FOX Sports analyst Tom Brady presented Williams with a player of the game honor. During the interview, they both mentioned that Williams plays even better when Brady is in the building. If you're Williams, why wouldn't you want to play well in front of the greatest quarterback who ever lived?
"You were locked in from the very start, locked in from pregame warm-up when I saw you," Brady said. "You're doing it, man, keep it up, rest up, I know you have a quick turnaround Thursday night, good luck."
Williams is unlikely to repeat anything close to what Brady did, as is anyone who will ever come after, but there can be things that a young player like him learns from the greatest of all time. They often talk about how long they hold onto the football, getting it out quickly, and doing what is needed to win games. One attempt at winning the Super Bowl would be a great start for Williams and the Bears.
