Caleb Williams’ dime for Bears’ first TD throw hints at how great Chicago’s offense can be
Chicago Bears history is defined by terrible quarterback play, with Sid Luckman — who started his career in the 1930s — still being considered as the greatest QB in franchise history.

The Chicago Bears' history is often marred by subpar quarterback play, with Sid Luckman, the greatest QB in franchise history, still leading the pack despite his 1930s career start. However, Caleb Williams, the QB fans have been anticipating for generations, is rapidly establishing himself as the future of the team. In the Bears' Week 1 matchup against the Carolina Panthers, Williams capitalized on the early advantage by rushing for the first touchdown of the season.
Following a one-yard run by D'Andre Swift, Chicago scored another touchdown with a one-yard run. With only two plays after regaining possession following a Carolina punt, Williams demonstrated his exceptional throwing skills once again by connecting with Cole Kmet for a 22-yard touchdown strike. The accuracy and precision of this throw were exceptional, potentially turning into an interception but instead becoming six crucial points for the Bears.
The Bears' offense has shown great promise, which is crucial due to concerns about the defense potentially being among the worst in the league. Despite having a history of strong defenses and weak offenses, this year appears different. Bears' head coach Ben Johnson had high expectations coming into the season, aiming to break the NFL's all-time scoring record.
With Williams at the helm and a leaky defense to support him, the Bears might be poised for a monster season.
