Caleb Williams flashes rare brilliance in Chicago Bears’ preseason win vs. Cincinnati Bengals
On this episode of the Under Center Podcast, Kenneth Davis, Josh Schrock, and Alex Shapiro break down the Chicago Bears' 27-3 victory over the Cincinnati Bengals. They start by breaking down Caleb Williams’ performance, including his should-have-been touchdown pass to Rome Odunze (1:55). What are the differences between Williams and Justin Fields? Can Williams and the Bears follow the same path the Bengals did with Joe Burrow? They also discuss the chemistry between the offense and why it might take longer for Williams and some of the receivers to click (13:00). Was it smart for Matt Eberflus to leave Williams and the starters in for the entire first half (18:00)? To wrap up the offense discussion they dissect the offensive lines’ struggles (21:29) and discuss how Tyson Bagent has looked. Later, they break down what they saw from the defense and examine what is in store for Kyler Gordon in Year 3 (34:31). Then they discuss the play of the linebackers and the depth of the back seven (40:28). They turn their attention to the pass rush and look at what the Matthew Judon trade offer says about the current group. Would Judon have been a good fit with the Bears? (47:27). Finally, they share their closing thoughts on the team as a whole with just one preseason game left.
