WhiteSox2023 Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 1 hour ago, fathom said: Cowherd today said he’s heard Caleb Williams doesn’t want to play for Bears. Commanders is the team he wants to play for. That makes sense because it’s his hometown and he went to high school there, but he doesn’t get the choice. Sucks that he’s only one pick away from where he wants to go but it is what it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll never understand why they didn’t replace Flus, when everything was aligned not only for Harbaugh - but several appealing alternatives. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it would have obviously been better having Eli. Caleb can sit out the start of his career on the bench, then. I’m not watching him win titles for Washington Edited February 2 by Flash Tizzle 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many players are really drafted to a team they want to go to?

Ah yea you are correct, twice with Elway. I just don’t think Caleb is gonna have the sway i also would question if it worked out pretty well for the chargers as Eli went and won two titles in New York and the chargers still are without Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Chappas Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 Did the Caleb, Washington thing come up before or after Ben Johnson electing to not go there? Thinking the Washington situation is better than the Bears is vastly different when you have no clue who the QB is playing for on that side of the ball. Sounds like Waldron has no chance of being a HC so it is safe that performance here will result in stability. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have player that won't play, they at at got some decent players with merriman and rivers out of the deal. Williams has the sway and f he sits out a year, I believe. He's made enough with the NIL money to get by. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
almagest Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 Caleb Williams is liking Chicago real estate posts on Instagram. Sure sounds like someone who isn't dreaming of playing here. Cowherd is a blowhard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Tizzle Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 (edited) I can already forsee the cope narratives if, by chance, this story is correct: “Guys….. it doesn’t matter how well Williams is playing. He didn’t want to play here.” ”We would have ruined him like everyone else.” ”(Insert team) had a better coaching situation for him” ”(insert team) had a better locker room for him to thrive in, like the Eagles with Jalen Carter.” Edited February 2 by Flash Tizzle 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are already so many Bears fans who have ran with the idea Caleb doesn’t want to be here, mostly based on fake twitter stories or speculation. When the truth comes out to counter that, it sadly doesn’t even matter. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there's also a subset of the fanbase that really wants the Bears to keep Fields, so the idea that Williams doesn't want to be here is something they want to be true. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There definitely is. I have a buddy in that group. Has his head in the sand about the realistic outcomes here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
