Last year, this team found ways to lose very winnable games repeatedly.

This year, they're not letting that happen.

Again, I still don't think this team is very good, but they're definitely a better coached and more talented team than last year.

Beat the Commanders and Ref Ball to edge out a win and Caleb played well again. It was sketchy in the middle, but he came through when they needed him most.

Is classify that first loss at home to the Vikings up 17-6 going into the 4th quarter an example of last years debacle. Same with the Lions blow out. The last three games they are playing like a new team. If Caleb develops some touch and some accuracy we could contend!

This isn't a very good NFL this year. Bears are in the picture in the NFC. Whatever that picture is.

Every win matters because not very many teams are that good. Take stack them up and keep going.

Yeah - I'm not holding my breath on this.

I just watched a career journeyman/backup thoroughly outplay our prized QB.

It wasn’t even close, the backups rating was 40 points higher.

Have reached the point where it’s not the QBs, it’s the franchise.

It is theoretically impossible for every single QB a team drafts to just suck. At least one would have had to forge a career that isn’t a punchline. That hasn’t happened.

Who has been the bears best QB of the superbowl era? Not anyone with a HOF resume.

Always the worst when the Bears lose and Packers win.

CW didn't play well, but he was done zero favors. This was far and away the worst defensive showing of the year, which is saying a lot given this team gave up 52 points to the Lions.

Caleb Williams (USC) throwing the winning TD pass to Colton Loveland (scUM) against Al Golden (Love Thee) and me being utterly mental about it in my living room yesterday is Twilight Zone material.

Bear Down.

This is beyond unacceptable. The fans are showing great restraint, and I wouldn’t be upset if they threw every piece of garbage in the stadium onto the field while screaming “stop wasting our fucking time.”

They keep finding a way to win but that doesn't mean they are that great. The defense bleeds weekly and the offense is very jekyll and Hyde. Makes for a lot of frustration.

I was nearly off the CW bus after that first half. He and the rest of the offense was atrocious.

Credit to Caleb, he stepped the fuck up in the 2nd half and willed his team to a win that they honestly had little business winning.

Next year is make or break for him. I feel like every QB that has a great career either shows it before or during year 3.

Very rare to see guys show it after that window.

They're already at 6, I could see 4 more between Vikings, Steelers, Browns, and Green Bay if they play like they did last night. I'm not the only one either as Hoge & Jahns called out those 4 games as potential Ws. But I do think 9 is what they get to
