Caleb Williams’ 2025 season sparked plenty of debate, especially across social media. Under the tutelage of first-year head coach and offensive mastermind Ben Johnson, Williams and the Chicago Bears improved their regular season win total by six games, won the NFC North, and stunned the Green Bay Packers in the NFC Wild Card round by scoring 25 fourth-quarter points to send their biggest rivals home.

Note: Apologies for this both being late and shorter than usual. I had a pretty bad cold to start the week, and the Texas power grid has been on and off the last 48 hours due to weather.
