Looks like he also has an issue with the middle of the field. Maybe we could have the field maintenance guys repaint the yard markers in the middle of the field to the end zone markers. This should improve his game
Says he is coachable. But I also thought Fields was. Something to keep an eye on

The data sample is so tiny here that I'm not going to worry... but yeah, we should all watch to see if Caleb has passing problems. But then again, in fairness, this was only day-2 of his first rookie mini-camp. And some of those rookies he was throwing to won't even be on a roster by the time the season begins. He threw a "near interception" and had 2 incomplete passes that happened to be in the middle of the field. With him being the first overall pick of the draft we will see a lot of over-reaction with some people covering the Bears, and I'll be one of the over reacting fans in all of this too.
FWIW, I'll admit I'm not a fan of ChiCitySports for anything Bears related, so I am biased here... and this particular article is not even from a guy who was at the camp. It's based on a tweet he read. He then writes this article and says he thinks Caleb Williams is coachable. LOL. He bases this on 1 tweet from Nick M (by the way, he is a guy who I do like and respect):
“Caleb Williams worked on his play action rollout with quarterbacks coach Kerry Joseph. For the drill, Joseph would direct Williams where to throw while he was in the middle of his rollout. Williams misfired on one of the attempts. Joseph went over and talked to Williams and coached him on the mistake. On the next rep, Williams put the ball right where it needed to be...
... - Wiliams completed a pass to (checks notes) running back TD Ayo-Durojaiye for a touchdown. - Then Williams connected with wide receiver John Jackson for a score. - Williams completed a pass to wide receiver Freddie Swain for a touchdown in the back left corner of the end zone. - Williams had an overthrow in the back middle portion of the end zone. Williams tried to target the same area of the end zone again, but the pass went out of bounds. - Williams hit Swain for a touchdown towards the front right pylon. Williams went over to Swain and congratulated him with a fist bump after the play. - Williams was nearly intercepted in the middle portion of the end zone”
From that we see the ChiCitySports guy publishing an article that is trying to link this to Justin Fields' and postulating that Caleb Williams may be coachable in this area. LOL, he will probably jump off the ledge when he reads a tweet that CW has thrown his first real interception, right?

I know.... It was not positive and so must be rebutted. But it still happened

Yeah, I'm reading more on it today (the toxic Fields stuff). It paints Fields as a Class-A jerk. Refused to listen to help from vets. Calls him superficial with his teammates and not liked by them. Yeah, it's pretty negative. I'm just saying that we don't know what the truth is. If it's true then good riddance of the guy. Toxic dude. LOL, so we replaced the jerk with a QB who can't hit passes over the middle. Oh boy.
LINK “One source plugged into the Bears locker room says the widely held narrative that Fields was a strong leader is inflated, citing the quarterback as ‘a surface level dude’ who didn’t develop authentic relationships with teammates. He called reports that teammates love Fields ‘[expletive]’ adding that the quarterback carried himself with an undeserved aura and lacks emotional intelligence for someone who’s been a quarterback so long,” Dunne wrote.

Eh...aside from Odunze he's throwing to guys who will be looking for new jobs in a few weeks. I wouldn't throw to a lot of them over the middle either. I'll worry about it more if it's not happening in pre-season camp when he's throwing to DJ, Keenan, Odunze, Kmet, and Everett.
Looks like he also has an issue with the middle of the field. Maybe we could have the field maintenance guys repaint the yard markers in the middle of the field to the end zone markers. This should improve his game

No one over at ChiCitySports is an actual journalist (not that there are that many of those any more anyway, other in name only), and those guys in particular are truly just hacks with no real football chops or insight.
Seriously, on a board full of trolls and idiots, they have some of the dumbest takes, to the point where they actually make Sports Mockery seem credible in contrast.

Made me laugh out-loud (the sportsmockery comment.)
And....the whole article is based on 6 (6!!!!!!!) throws recorded by a different writer/blogger in a tweet where the original tweeter says he wasn't even close to the field where the 7-on-7 drills were taking place.
So to recap: (1) Original report (a tweet) contains the caveat that the practice field wasn't close to where the tweeter was. (2) Out of all the throws 6 were listed (unless we believe that Williams only had 6 throws during the 7-on-7 drills.) (3) Williams now has an issue throwing across the middle, making him equal in ability to Fields.
I'll file this one under---clickbait---because someone had a contractual obligation to write something. windycity, whose comment section never misses a chance to slam the Bears for any move they make, has nothing about his article. Tells you something when windycity doesn't even talk it.
Before anyone gets their underwear in a knot, this is a Chicago Bears message board. We always tear apart articles/posts (good or bad depending on if we agree or disagree with the premise) with mockery, exaggeration, sarcasm and simple horse-beating. We literally have nothing else to do at this point in the season. Remember when we fought over the Bears having 10 TEs on the 90 man roster before TC/PS? Remember when Borom was elevated above Jenkins in the minds of many people? Literally we have nothing else to do but mock articles, tweets, podcasts and each other.

I thought clickbait was Erik Lambert's middle name.

I thought his full name was Erik "I'll call Jahns/Hoge an insider" Clickbait Lambert.
But hey, got to give the guy props because I assume he makes some income reposting tweets/articles about the Bears. Thats more than I make for the waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay to much time I spend here.
