Kyler is one of my favorite players on this defense, but seeing him on the injury list again before we’ve even taken a snap is getting concerning.

I know it’s the Active/PUP list and he could be back soon, but it feels like every year we’re talking about another injury. When he’s healthy, he’s arguably one of the best nickel corners in the league and a huge part of this defense.

At what point do we start calling it a durability issue instead of just bad luck?

Am I overreacting, or is anyone else starting to get worried?

The “Caleb Williams is overrated” narrative has become one of the laziest takes in football.
If he’s supposedly overrated, explain this:
• Franchise passing records in just two seasons.
• Led the Bears to their first NFC North title since 2018.
• Ended the franchise’s playoff win drought.
• Produced multiple game-winning drives in the biggest moments.
The criticism always comes down to the same thing: “highs are high, lows are low.” That’s true of almost every young quarterback learning to push the ball downfield. The difference is Caleb is creating explosive plays that very few quarterbacks can make.
What’s even more inconsistent is that one week he’s labeled “overrated,” and the next he’s ranked as a Top-10 quarterback by NFL coaches and executives.
Calling him overrated ignores both the context and the trajectory. He’s 24 years old, has a franchise finally built around him, an offensive-minded head coach, and he’s already accomplished more in two seasons than most Bears quarterbacks managed in years.
Criticism is fair. Pretending his success is hype isn’t.
