Williams will never (read: never ever) reach his potential as long as Matt Eberflus is his head coach. Full stop. Sunday’s deflating Bears’ loss to the Indianapolis Colts demonstrated exactly why the Bears can’t risk damaging their young face of the franchise at the expense of a head coach who can coordinate defense and do nothing else at a competent level.

Through the first two weeks of the season, rookie signal callers attempted 196 passes and none ended with receptions in the end zone but have thrown eight interceptions. The 196 attempts without a touchdown pass set a record for most attempts by a class of rookies without cashing in.

Rookie quarterback Caleb Williams produced promising numbers in his third career NFL start. They came with a disappointingly familiar result for the Chicago Bears.
