Tyreek Hill 573 yards for the season after 11.5 games wasn’t on my bingo cards.
I can guarantee you Williams' hubris had him greedily thinking they would get into the endzone that next play for the killshot and the time wasn't even in his head.I’ve re-watched the Bears play 10 times. I don’t care what nobody say, Caleb deserves half the blame.
Like wtf are we doing. For one he took the sack. And we’re just speeding past that. That ball could have and should have been snapped at 14. At that point you have time to do what you needed which is get a quick 5 yard play.
Not only didn’t he do that, he starts calling audibles! He didn’t snap until 7
Good QBs aren’t robots. Caleb up there like ‘hey man I’m just going by the script’. Good QBS are empowered. Bo Nix screaming on his HC. Jayden Daniels making plays out of nothing. So THAT is part of coaching—-empowering, cultivating confidence——but that still falls on Caleb.
To shoot Caleb some bail that sack was unavoidable with how clean they got to him. No holes were open for him to step up into.I’ve re-watched the Bears play 10 times. I don’t care what nobody say, Caleb deserves half the blame.

Even if he got the play call in late as he claimed there's no reason for there not to be an immediate snap around the 14 or even 10 second mark like you noted as everybody was set. Caleb deserves some blame in the fukk up for sure but again it's mostly on the coaches. Common sense says to give your team a chance to get some decent yards and have the FG unit ready to sprint on the field without having to rush.

You say common sense and everyone keeps saying this ….but when was the last time you saw this? It’s an emergency situation but teams typically would rather not. Bc you significantly raise the chances he’s gona miss that kick under duress
Either way, you have 1 play. I can’t say what I was thinking it in real time bc I only saw the replay, but my thought would be DONT call timeout bc I’d rather get the cheap short pass on a scrambling D THEN call timeout. And 9/10 that’s what would have happened if he just snapped the ball and it bothers me that NOBONE is saying that lol
