- First Things First | Nick Wright HEATED, Caleb & Chicago Bears Will Be In The AFC CHAMPIONSHIP Game

The Bears will NEVER be in the AFC Championship Game. They are in the NFC.
😂😂😂😂 good call
Watch the highlights of Caleb Williams vs. Arizona, Oregon, and Notre Dame this past season. I think J.J. McCarthy is a better QB. The defense will be needed for the Bears to make the playoffs.
Justin Fields is a better QB. If the Bears kept Justin Fields and traded down from #1 for a lot of draft picks, they would be in a position to not only make the playoffs but legitimately be Superbowl contenders because of their strength at every position and depth.
Exactly
@@thechannel2398I agree the could've been more flexible with draft picks.
Shane Waldron had Geno Smith looking really good last year with less. He will have the Bears offense cooking.
Yeah I'm curious to see how he works with Caleb
I think if you can't score 40 , your not beating the Bears.
Lol you think the bears are averaging 35 plus points a game?
That's ridiculous 😂😂😂
@@JWLSports with Johnson and Swift in the backfield, Nobody on the offense catches under 60% for their Lifetime stats . It gets hard when absolutely everybody has to be covered. Not even considering if Caleb has a great season.
You do realize that the OC is the same guy who revitalized genos career
I mean Geno had one good outlier year and now no one really knows what to do with him. And dealing with Caleb Williams is infinitely more complex than Geno because Caleb can do so much more.
@@JWLSportsyea ai agree with this. It’s not apples to apples always. Look at Daboll in New York.
The only question mark on the Bears is QB. Every position was addressed and upgraded. It would have been nice to draft an DE earlier but it appears the Bears have enough for this season.
Again, the ONLY question mark is Caleb Williams and it is a big question mark. No QB is ever guaranteed to be a franchise QB in the NFL. It is the most challenging position to predict.
@@thechannel2398 agreed. I would also add the coaching. The OC in Waldron and how well he can work WITH Caleb’s talents and not just put in “his system”
@@travisoshea- I agree that OC Shane Waldron was a good hire and has had success with Geno Smith and creating a positive system tonutiloze his talents. I thought J.J. McCarthy was the perfect QB for the Bears. Strong arm, pure pocket passer, coachable, can play in cold weather, can make all throws.
I said next yr BEARS 🐻 UPSET KC IN SUPER BOWL ….NO IM NOT ON DRUGS 😂 … BUT DAMN WE GOT A SQUAD
Hahah now that's a pretty bold take!
With your point at the 8:28 mark, last year, the Bears went through a very intriguing time when their Defensive coordinator suddenly resigned under the allegations of child pornography in Halas Hall. Yet Coach Eberflus was able to keep that team together and have a shot to make the playoffs at the end of the year, so I belive its possible that this coaching staff has it in them to keep it together.
Well this season it's really all about how the OC handles the elite potential of Caleb Williams.
I agree with everything Nick just said I’m swimming to Meatball island!🧸🏊🏼♀️🏝️
I'll see you there!
hahah
Defense wins in the NFL, The Bears offense, with Caleb's ability to anticipate will stymie most defenses, they'll be alright, their players have more character than most teams. 11-5 record.
17 games in the season so I’ll add 1 more to the win column…12-5 record.
We will find out soon enough!
The Bears will be playing the 3rd weakest schedule in the NFL this season. Meanwhile the Vikings, Packers and Lions will be playing a much harder schedule thus giving the Bears an even better chance at making the playoffs and possibly going to the NFC Championship game.
I wouldn’t say the NFC championship game but the expectation is to make the playoffs and have Caleb and the team play well.
A NFC championship game appearance is much too high of an expectation. The media spins it wayy out of control.
Coaches and GMs have more realistic outcomes
Healthy team.. there's no reason why the don't make playoffs
@@jonsnipe5484 well, there is one glaring reason. A roomie QB with massive expectations and a whole team with massive expectations.
Do I think they make the playoffs? Yes, however there are reasons as to why they might not
Yeah I think with CJ Stroud's success and even Jordan Love, people are expecting quick success with Chicago and Caleb. I think playoffs is fair. NFC Championship would be wild.
@@JWLSports completely agree. Even them missing the playoffs by a game isn’t horrible. People have wayy too many NOW expectations
Blaming the offense not clicking 100% on fields and saying now it’s on Caleb shows a gross misunderstanding of football.
It’s not 100% on fields but he was a major part. That can’t be denied.
Well, what percent should be blamed on the QB of an NFL Offense?
The last 8 games of the Season, the Defense played very, very well. The running game was absolutely dominant.
They had their best year from a WR in a decade, and they had 2 competent RBs.
So how much was Justin Fields not being a competent QB?
Just for an example, let's say Lamar was the Beaes QB...
Do they make the Playoffs? And keep in mind that the Bears lost 3 games very late in the 4th quarter in unbelievably bizarre fashion.
They should have swept the Lions, a team that SHOULD HAVE made it to the Super Bowl.
What if the 2023 Beaes have Joe Burrow at QB? Patrick Mahomes? Justin Herbert?
Do you not believe that the Bears easily make the Playoffs in 2023?
Look at how many times that Bears Defense was put in a terrible position exactly because of Justin Fields, whether it was a fumble (many), interception (many), or a 3 and out?
He has to be responsible for A LOT of the issues of the past 3 years.
@@Will-fk2dk gets old man. How many lame screens did Getsy call. In a row? Worst OC in football. Fields was solid and did everything he was asked to do. Well. With room to grow of course. But to claim it’s all on Fields is idiotic and reductionist. I get the excitement about Caleb. But give Fields his due.
The bottom line is, it's all conjecture! Words and predictions are just that, words and predictions! The Chicago Bears will need to take the field and play the games first! It's fun to try and figure out who will be great, but the things is, we don't know! If we did know, Las Vegas would be broke.
Hahs sports media is ALL conjecture and made up predictions.
Bears OC .....is experienced. Shane calls a game plan not just a play. Poor Justin. He never had a chance between the OC and no pass pro and 1 WR in 3 years. But, I digress. Bears win 10, beat GB twice, at least wild card. BEAR DOWN BEARS !
Ask Seahawks fans how they feel about Waldron calling dumb screens over and over. Most Seahawks fans are glad to be rid of Waldron
Haha so you think they win the division?
@@holdwhatdoor7629 Uh oh ! Well, I can only hope he's learned and will improve the next time around.
@@JWLSports No. Have no idea. All new O coaches and skilled positions. We can't know. Will take a couple of years to develop, I imagine. And tough division. But we should be better than last year, so I look for progress!
Justin Fields couldn’t get it together? We didn’t have near the offensive talent to truly compete, at a consistent high-level and the defense was sus for a minute at the beginning of the season played bad when that played notable quarterbacks. Really can’t compare the two, better off comparing Justin starts to Bryce Young’s, the next two year because their working with the same offensive talent.
I mean it’s not all on him but Justin Fields deserves some blame.
I am happy we have caleb. But i still remain confident that fields would have won atleast 10 games next season if he had this team around him. In fact, he would have had even more talent around him since we would have taken nabers or mhj- and they are superior players. And we would have gotten a vet player too from who ever we traded with.
But at the same time, i think caleb can win with less around him since hes a better passer.
I think you should be much much happier with Caleb. The ceiling is through the roof with him and resetting the rookie clock is invaluable.
This was a very intelligent analysis of Caleb Williams. I've never heard the take before that Caleb is clearly an emotional guy, and a bad start could impact him more than others. Good stuff
Thank you so much! I really really appreciate it!
Bears fan here, you made some valid points. One of my fears is that we turn into what the broncos were when they landed Russell Wilson in that off season and got way too confident "let's Ride". As much as we like Caleb we still have to see him play. He wouldn't be the first "prodigy" that fell flat.
I really don’t think you’d have the issues of the broncos. So I really wouldn’t worry about that. People were already low on Wilson. People want to like Caleb. It’s up to him to show everyone why.
There is always a playoff team from previous yr that takes a step back. If we win 10-11 games we should at least be in the hunt for the playoffs. That's all us fans want.
I agree totally! I think the Cowboys are taking that step back as well as Tampa
Bears should be in the playoffs
Definitely could be!
Houston has a"great" head coach what the hell are you talking about! He was a first year Head coach knew how he'd be or Stroud. Our OC made a basic Gino Smith a pro bowler. Besides I hate when they make excuse saying Williams is cocky by saying his goal is to chase n be better than #12 HE'S SUPPOSE TO SAY THAT! I wouldn't want our qb saying my goal is to just play n earn a check.
Who said Houston doesn't have a great coach?
Great content man!
Thank you so much! I really appreciate it!
Nick is the only person i hear crowning caleb mahomes 2.0😂😂
He's hedging his bets. If Caleb is great he wants to scoop up the Chicago bears fans. It's a massive city!
I love your point of being emotional ready and how confident someone may look when entering the NFL. This is something that NEVER gets talked about and NO ONE can predict.
When these big time, high draft picks come in it always reminds me of Vince Young and Matt Leinart. Both of them have said that they just were not ready mentally for what the NFL life brings. Young had an incredible career at Texas and even won ROY and mentally it went downhill. Leinart even says how hard it was to adjust from USC life to the NFL, where you are a rockstar in college and then you get to the NFL and guys in the locker room do not care who you are.
Thank you! Yeah it's bizarre that people don't talk about the emotional readiness. To me it's wildly important and extremely difficult to predict. And it was weird to me because Nick said because of the NIL Caleb has proven to be able to handle it. Which is just not true. He has a taste of it sure. But the being the first pick in the draft and playing in the NFL making millions and millions. Is not the same as being in college.
@@JWLSports it’s impossible to predict. Haha but I get your point. If scouts knew this part of a player they would be making millions hahaha
Great take man! The only thing I disagree with is the notion that if the Bears don’t start strong, it could spiral because the coaching staff wouldn’t be able to control the situation. Coach Flus proved last year that he could keep his team together through adversity and finish the season stronger than they started it. I do agree that Caleb is more emotional than Fields but I think that will only be beneficial to the team in rallying together through adversity. We’ll have to wait and see though. Looking forward to more of your content man. Great stuff!
So it’s a combo between Caleb and the coaching staff if they get off to a slow start. Things can really spiral quickly.
They are adding wayyying more than just caleb williams. This is not a simple oh the quarterback wasn't good last year. They've built an extremely strong foundation for caleb. Which is why you see so much optimism and excitement him and rome.
I agree! The Bears have definitely taken the right steps forward.
The Bears O-line isn't bad? They aren't good, either. The Bears aren't as good as the Lions and Packers, yet.
They are definitely not on their level yet. I agree
@@JWLSports No, they're not! The Lions are my personal favorite to win the SB this year! They've improved greatly on the Defensive side of the ball.
He was asked a question and he responded to his true opinion
What do you mean?
Well, for starters, they literally CAN'T make the AFC championship game because they're in the NFC bro 😂😂😂
Haha but in all seriousness, I don't see the conference title game at all for them. Too soon. They may not even make the playoffs in fact. The NFC is a better conference than what the narrative of it is. The NFC actually has a lot of quality teams in it. Let's not sleep on the NFC as a conference. They're not coming in and just rolling over this conference
I would consider a wildcard appearance is the floor goal wise.
lol we have the hardest division in the NFC
Haha I changed it! And yeah, I agree. An NFC Championship run would be legendary
Detroit does not match up well against Chicago. Minnesota is not good. The Bears will only struggle against Green Bay.
So you think the bears will be in the NFC championship?
Fair assessment, the additions Outside of Rome & Caleb will portend the future of the franchise this year. Lookout if we pick up Hendrickson from the Bengals. The defense will be a Beast.
Yeah I'm really excited to see how this all comes together this season. Could be some fireworks for sure. Both good and bad!
The Texans coaches weren't that great prior to CJ Stroud. Also Shane Waldron's coaching is legit he took a nearly bust of a quarterback and made him a 4,000 yard passer.
Huh? DeMeco Ryans is a great defensive mind, proved that for years, and Ryan Slowik has been successful everywhere he's been part of the Shanahan coaching tree.
@JWLSports Ok dude, said it! "Defensive mind". Not offensive!
No. It’s actually all on coaching not Caleb
What is?
A well Q.B should be able to correct or play over coaches errors. Just like any other job when you get trained in. You take what they teach you but in the end you insert your own tweaks that will yield you success. BEAR DOWN
It's not always that easy though.
If Green bay defense top 10 this year Green bay will be nfl North champion this season....
They definitely have a great shot this season!
Every year the Bears talk so much crap. Every year they finish bottom. Stfu and prove it first!
Haha I think this year should be different. But we shall see!
Best running QB in the history of the league is a flawed statement. Thats not what a good QB should be
Wait what do you mean?
Poles didn’t draft Justin fields
Did Nick say that?
Only reason just lost that confidence and that enthusiasm was bc of shit of Gm and coaching he had
Do you think Caleb will succeed?
Not really I watched every game if they had any type of balance in their offense the running backs would have done better then we added Swift to that so that's better to what we already had stopped hating man I can tell you're a a Packers fan
What are you talking about? I literally said the Bears can go on a run. How am I hating?
All depends on correctly using Williams, if the coaches dont know what they're doing with this rookie their going to screw everything up. And with there history, thats more likely
@austinjohnson-gj6uj I don't get that "if the coaches don't know what they're doing" logic, especially sense Shane Waldron is proven to be a better than average experienced OC and the history you speak of has nothing to do with the current front office, coaches or players. Shane Waldron literally resurrected Geno Smith's career from the dead. I'd bet on Williams and Waldron success before "screw everything up more likely" you speak of.
I think there's tremendous amount of pressure on the OC without a doubt.
But it's the Cowboys sooo....
haha
BEAR MF DOWN!!!!
Haha Bears Super Bowl run?
Just another outside haters take looking into another team, please guys get your research done before you make videos like this.
Who is hating?
Less is for losers
Less?
Less than 7 wins is a complete disaster
Absolutely! Coach super be fired right away.
What he's trying to say is that the Chicago bears defense single-handedly beat Detroit and Green Bay and Minnesota do you pass the ball more than 16 times but Green Bay is the youngest team in football that has a lot of potential but someone has to jump out of the playoffs that happens every year
mmhm
There's a giant chance they fall flat. Caleb played great against, to he fair, nowhere near the level of defenses in the pac 12 he will see in the NFL. The Bears oline is suspect, as well as the coaching staff.
It's definitely a possibility . I think it all depends on the start of the season
