Caleb Williams Is On Pace For Another Bears Record Vs. Panthers

People were so quick to declare Caleb Williams a bust after his first two games. They called him inferior to Jayden Daniels, who is off to an incredible start in Washington. Then, things slowly started shifting. Williams set a Chicago Bears rookie record with 363 yards passing against Indianapolis. Last week, he posted his first 100+ passer rating in a big win over the Los Angeles Rams. People still weren’t buying in. They felt he hadn’t done enough from a statistical point of view to justify any hype.

Well, that stance may have to change now. After one half of football, Williams staked the Bears to a 27-7 lead over the Carolina Panthers. In doing so, he threw for 200 yards and two touchdowns. Not only is he on pace to reset the rookie record of passing yards in a game he just broke, but he could record only the fifth 400-yard game in Bears franchise history. Again, this is only his fifth game as a pro. This is not to say the young quarterback has arrived. Carolina obviously isn’t a good team. Still, the progress is impossible to deny at this point.
