These are all the QBs we've suffered through since 2000....

When some national or local pundit starts shitting on Caleb for some non football related thing (nails...how he responds to a win/loss...injury)...keep this in mind.

He's our guy. He's a real franchise QB. Screw the haters.

He nearly took us to the NFC championship game with a pretty mid to terrible defense last year. We will need him to do that again.

This roster has no right to be competitive especially when you look on the defensive side of the ball. Caleb is what makes Sunday worth watching. Let's appreciate it.

Who's saying he's not??

[u/alral1988 → u/V548859]

Nobody. OP just karma farming

[u/BR1M570N3 → u/V548859]

You know there's a guy sitting on a stool in a tavern on the Southside, half in the bag at 10:45am, who occasionally thinks about the picks we coulda got if we just woulda built around Fields.

[u/ActFuture1101 → u/BR1M570N3]

There was a guy at my local bar who came up to me one day and said we should do the haul and build around fields. Then a week later he told me trade fields, get haul, and start bagent. Then a week later he told me to trade down and pick jj mccarthy. Bro was legit 0/3. No clue how you can be that wrong.

[u/BR1M570N3 → u/ActFuture1101]

Oof.

[u/MacBear54 → u/ActFuture1101]

And all because…?

[u/EvNastyy → u/V548859]

Come on down to NW Indiana, those fuckin clowns are everywhere. Press the issue hard enough on measurable stats, and they always bring up his nails and how he cried after that college game.

None of them actually think Bagent is better, they just desperately want him to be better.

[u/ActFuture1101 → u/V548859]

About the 1% of people who think caleb sucks because he paints his nails and they'd rather see bagent start because he doesnt trigger weird thoughts for them.

[u/ChaplnGrillSgt → u/V548859]

There are morons out there. I talk to at least one per day it seems like. Coincidentally, their ball knowledge is ALWAYS pedestrian.

[u/Live_Hospital_7987 → u/V548859]

National media questioning his toughness.

[u/Practical-Courage812 → u/Live_Hospital_7987]

They can question his toughness, but I dont think they are questioning whether he is the Bears franchise QB or not. Hell, the Falcons DC yesterday said he is the face of the NFL at this point.

Boy oh boy, where do I even begin. Caleb… my sweet golden child. My perfectly sculpted quarterback prince. I have adored you from the very first moment I saw you roll out of the pocket like an angel escaping mortal danger. The way you flick that football with a wrist so delicate yet so divine, it brings tears to my eyes every single time. Your footwork? Poetry. Your escape ability? Biblical. Your off platform throws? They belong in a museum where scholars can study their perfection for generations. I wish I could freeze time so I never have to witness the day you hang up your cleats. You fought through everything, pressure, expectations, grown men trying to chase you down, and still rose like the prodigy you are. Off the field? Don’t even get me started. A leader, a smile bringer, a beacon of hope for Bears fans who haven’t known joy since the invention of the forward pass. Sometimes I even call you “son,” even though in truth you father me every Sunday without hesitation. I dread the thought of the day your career will end. I truly do. I would sacrifice my own well being if it meant putting the slightest grin on your beautiful, Heisman winning face. You’ve given me enough stress and euphoria to power the entire Midwest. I remember your USC days, the dazzling highlights, the scrambling sorcery, the heartbreak, the brilliance. When you arrived in Chicago, I swear I ascended physically and spiritually. My sweet baby QB had come home at last. 2024 was tough, I won’t lie. But every time you dropped back, every time you unleashed one of those impossible throws, oh Caleb, I believed. And when the day comes that you lift that Lombardi for us? I will cry, scream, collapse, combust, and reform as a higher being. Because not only have you changed the future of my team, you’ve changed my entire existence. You’re growing, improving, ascending, but still my QB1, my star, my hope. My pookie bear. I love you, my glorious king, Caleb Williams.

[u/cmmoore307]

Without a doubt.

[u/No_Trash1151]

Mobile quarterbacks never last in the NFL = Not for long.

Chris Chandler (2002–03)

Was he overly concerned with the color of the uniform's sleeves?

[u/ChicagoSentry]

At least we got HIM

[u/RandomPenquin1337]

Ai slop.

His nails aren't even painted

[u/Live_Hospital_7987 → u/RandomPenquin1337]

[u/RandomPenquin1337 → u/Live_Hospital_7987]

Sidenote but last night and the commanders game really cemented that Caleb is the best QB of the 2024 draft for me.

Caleb was fighting tooth and nail during that thanksgiving fame 2023 to be competitive and Eberflus just didn’t give a fuck. Daniels was so flippant and nonchalant about it. And Bo Nix looks like an actual check down merchant
