I'm not worried about Caleb Williams; I'm worried about the Bears' coaching staff ruining him

Nothing has changed about my opinion about Caleb Williams other than the fact maybe everyone was right that Matt Eberflus is a fucking moron... Caleb Williams is not my worry at all. I know people were going to say he is a bust and all that shit. He's not my worry. I swear to God, I'm not worried at all. I'm worried about the coaching staff just like ruining him in a way that makes me worried.

The Bears eventually fired Shane Waldron mid-season, validating Big Cat's concern about the coaching, though Caleb Williams' overall performance remained a subject of debate.

The start of the 2024 season proves that coaching matters more than anything else in the NFL

The big picture for me before we get into all the games is Sam Darnold's three and oh, Geno Smith's three and oh... this start of the 2024 season has just been a red blinking light of coaching matters a lot.

The season-long success of Sam Darnold and Jared Goff, contrasted with the struggles of highly-drafted QBs in poor systems, generally supported this theme throughout 2024.

Kevin O'Connell is one of the best coaches in the NFL

Minnesota might have one of the best coaches in the league. Yes. And I would also put McVay's performance this week right up there too.

O'Connell led the Vikings to a surprisingly successful season and is widely regarded as a top-tier offensive mind.

Nick Sirianni does not deserve to be let off the hook for his poor coaching despite the Eagles' win

I'm hoping that Max doesn't let [Sirianni] off the hook. Yeah. He doesn't deserve to be left off the hook. They won the game and they were the better team in this game... That was a horrible display of coaching from him today.

Subjective opinion on coaching performance.

Ben Johnson ran the illegal play wrong on purpose

I think Ben Johnson ran it wrong on purpose to put something on tape that then he can run a variation off of it.

This is an interpretation of coaching intent that cannot be definitively verified from the game broadcast.

The Bears are good

I think the Bears are good.

Whether the 2026 Bears are 'good' is ultimately a season-level subjective assessment.

The NFL is testing its way toward Tuesday and Wednesday games

Florio basically was like the NFL is testing out putting teams three times in a row on primetime because we're going to get to a point where they start playing Tuesday and Wednesday games. And I believe it.

This can be evaluated if the NFL introduces regular Tuesday or Wednesday games as described.
