Tom Brady Sees Something in Caleb Williams That Should Excite Bears Fans

Tom Brady praised Caleb Williams during an appearance on The Herd with Colin Cowherd, calling him the perfect quarterback for Chicago Bears coach Ben Johnson's unconventional offense. Brady highlighted how Johnson's moving pockets and multi-angle plays align with Williams' ability to throw on the run and scramble effectively. The praise followed Chicago's 34-17 Monday night victory over the Seattle Seahawks.

Against Seattle's league-leading pass defense, Williams completed 24 of 34 passes for 247 yards, one touchdown, and zero interceptions. Janik Eckardt notes that Williams demonstrated strong command of an intricate game plan, leading a 17-play opening touchdown drive capped by a pass to Luther Burden III and showing sustained discipline on schedule.
