Some of the Bears fans seated and holding banners in the front row behind Chicago’s bench was still begging Williams to sign their mini-helmets during the warm-up of the Hall of Fame game.

“Please, Caleb. Please. ”

Team colourful navy blue, orange and white number 18 jerseys from the Chicago fans both young and old were in the stadium trotting round the Hall of Fame village that housed the busts of Mike Ditka, Walter Payton, Dick Butkus, Mike Singletary and other legends of bears fraternities.

Myers-McGovern, Devin Hester and Steve McMichael will be among former players who can claim that they are part of that list on Saturday.

Williams someday wants to wear a gold jacket and add a quarter century to his age. A very important player such as the 2022 Heisman Trophy winner from USC, who was taken in the first pick of the version NFL draft has also set ambitious goals.

Williams already stated his desire to capture as many Super Bowl titles as Tom Brady’s seven but one more.

Speaking on the “The Pivot” podcast, Williams said: “I want to play for one team for 20 years, and hunt one man, Sorry, Kizer, No. 12. ”

Klanten van de Bears, die jarenlang te maken hebben gehad met de teleurstellingen van hun team, zouden nu toch graag een play-off zege proberen. They have not done that ever since the 2010 season, much less celebrate it, you reckon. Competing in more of an NFC North division, which was long led by Aaron Rodgers’ Green Bay pack, the Bears have only managed one winning campaign in the last 11 years.

Still, the arrival of Williams to the Windy City has been what has brought cheers. All are pinning their hopes on him to develop into the franchise quarterback that the wind-bearing city has been yearning for all these years.

McMahon is the only quarterback to take the Bears to Super bowl and could only do it with Payton leading a great offense or one of the greatest defensive teams in the NFL.

The list of QBs who bearer the cross of scoring a Vince Lombardi trophy for Chi-town include Justin Fields, Mitch Trubisky, Jay Cutler, Rex Grossman and Jim Harbaugh.

It shows here that ‘‘Williams has the skills and the abilities to make it happen in the future’’. He definitely has the cockiness and attitude one needs to be a star in the NFL. The Front office managed by general manager Ryan Poles has done well in assembling him considerable skilled support.

The Chicago Bears select Rome Odunze as the 9th overall pick as Marquee addition like Keenan Allen who is a 6 times pro bowl winner, and Key target D. J Moore. They were involved in free agency wherein they bought in running back D’Andre Swift and tight end Gerald Everett.

Yes, Williams does have playmakers around him. Now he must take time to grow and adapt heading into the speed and tempos of the NFL.

Williams and the starters didn’t play in Chicago’s weather-shortened 21-17 win over the Houston Texans on Thursday night.

But he learned from the sideline at least the rudiments of the highly important defense mechanism.

“He went through the pre-game and then bringing him right before the game, talking to him about what he needs to know based off the information we give him as the quarterback and that’s information that’s pertinent to locations on the field, what we’re doing, when we’re going for stuff, all those things,” Bears coach Matt Eberflus said. “That was his first time going through pre-game, first time getting all the information told to him like that, right there he was following halftime adjustments so he got to see that for the first time and it’s not college where you have 30 minutes at halftime where you can put in a whole new offense. ”

Of course, if the Bears required any reminding that a rookie QB could transform a team’s fortunes very very soon, all that the Bears had to do was take a peep at the other side of the field. Last year the Texans had the worst record in the AFC South but they jumped straight to the first and credit must go to the AP Offensive Rookie of the Year C. J. Stroud. The No. 2 pick in the 2023 draft emerged superb for the season with Houston clinching 11 victories and making it to the divisional round of the playoffs.

Williams and the Bears don’t think in those terms, though. They are preoccupied with accomplishing the same for themselves out there.

That setup is now in place which is the requirement to have all the necessary pieces assembled. Williams is the foundation.

“It is about the connection, and the belief that you have between each other because, then, you go out there and compete at another level, you are in a different zone your attitude is more or less different,” Williams said this summer. ‘It’s a different ball game when are toting for one another and not toting for yourself. ” The relation to be able to make a link between not only the 11 on the field, but the next 11 that will replace them on the field which is the defence, and then the 53 people on the active list.

“We respect each other, we love each other, try to care for the best for each other but also have tough love and push each other to be the best that we can be, that is where the connectedness is from because at the end of the year, you can’t build something pretty special without the bonds of brotherhood, love and trust. ”
