Yep. He had a pop gun arm but damn was he an intelligent play caller. One of the best minds probably to ever play the position.

I would check with 50 year old Brady today unless I had Mahomes. Keep in mind this kid didn't have an arm either. It made sense for the 49ers to attempt to right their wrong.

Welcome back Nas!

Marino dropped because he had a bad senior year along with the drug stuff.

Carson Palmer had a bunch of negatives in his draft profile.


What makes Williams not equal to Aikman or Testeverde?

Dan Marino liked gambling and the nose candy

But still, if the only "can't miss" prospects from 1993 when Bledsoe was drafted are Carson Palmer, Peyton Manning, and Andrew Luck then that certainly isn't a reason do doubt Williams because he isn't a can't miss prospect either.

Yeah it reminds of the LeBron free agency sweepstakes from 2010 or whatever. I suppose it's in Caleb's favor to create this kind of buzz around him. The issue is the McCaskeys are too old fashioned too countenance this kind of stuff. They may direct Poles to draft the quietest most uncontroversial prospect available regardless of position.

I doubt he was feeding information to known blowhard Colin Cowherd especially since he was wrong about Kingsbury a week ago and today had to walk back pretty much everything else.

Of course Williams is a little concerned with Chicago. He'd be concerned with Washington or New England or any other team that needs a QB.

Caleb Williams didn't create this. Someone in the media made it up. I'm not sure why so many old men appear to be invested in tearing this kid and his father down. I understand why agents of other players would want to do it.

They’re doing a “sure this never happened, but can you blame us for thinking it might have?” bit based on nothing.

I guess he's not feeding info per se but it seems there's some disagreement within Caleb's camp about the optimal place to land. They'd be in position to feed info to a favored media person if they had their ducks in a row but they don't, that's why I think there's so many conflicting pseudo reports. I'm sure some connected to Caleb think Chicago is fine and others don't.

I don't think cowherd is interested in tearing him and his camp down tho. I think he's a fan of them and knows them.

He was gone?

It's great for clicks and content creation. It's unfair to the kid but such is life.

I finely crafted a joke in the Carl Weathers thread just for your triumphal return.

Caleb made peace with the fact he may get drafted by Chicago before declaring imo. To me he comes across as a dude who is confident in his abilities and is excited about the next step in his professional life. I also believe concerns are naturally being discussed in his camp about potential landing spots -it would make sense. And I also believe Cowturd could have caught wind of something directly or indirectly and decided to toss it into the Public forum.


I think this all amounts to a big nothing burger slathered in don’t mean shit sauce by time draft day roles around.


Of course there’s also a huge possibility that Williams isn’t the only QB Poles and co are interested in -it would be foolish to completely disregard Maye (for example) given his talent level.

I saw a interview from him recently and thought he looked great. This is a difficult day in the Nas household.

Cowherd on the p&s show clarifying his comments. Strongly intimating the root cause of any concerns with Chicago from Williams (either the father or son, probably the father) is Eberflus' job security. Does this mean they're more comfortable if Poles extends Eberflus? He claims to be in direct touch with someone from the Williams camp.

From all of the interviews I've consumed, he comes across as confident and competitive but likable. That's not easy to do. The kid is concerned about his brand, and rightfully so. He even cut his hair. He wants winning to be a huge part of his brand. He wants to be better than Patrick Mahomes and Tom Brady. IMO, he has the best chance to win immediately in Chicago. Winning championships in Chicago would put him in that GOAT conversation quickly.

Don't Cowherd your post. He's referring to something that he heard MAY be a concern 2 months ago when Eberflus was on the hot seat. Something he didn't think was important to report then. He didn't hear anything before making up those statements yesterday.

I don't know the order of things and don't care either way, just interested in how Cowherd rationalizes the storm he caused. He also said something that's sure to cut deep: he thinks Chicagoans overrate Chicago as a landing spot for Williams. Wasn't buying Parkins opinion that Chicago might be the best team in recent memory picking first in the draft. I actually think what Parkins said is reasonable but Cowherd said that's local talk, nationally people think it just sucks here. Reflects poorly on Eberflus' rep I guess but that's not necessarily surprising.

Eberflus is a cuck and nobody wants to play for him. Poles can draft well it seems but keeping Eberflus will be his downfall

He literally said the Caleb camp called him last night and was speaking highly of the Bears and he pushed back by questioning the job security of coach. He said he told the Caleb camp that's what makes the Bears a bad organization to go to. Why did he do that? Who is he working for?

Cowherd manufactured a story. His concerns about Chicago are his own. His shitting on defensive coaches doesn't help his desire to see him go to the the Redskins or possibly the Patriots or Raiders.
