What we see with our eyes.

I mean, anybody who watched football this year can tell you that Caleb Williams was a better quarterback than CJ Stroud.

So what are we doing here when we're just trying to cherry pick some of these advanced numbers?

um, to, to, to just discredit a season that we all saw was very good.

I just, I doesn't make sense to me.

So I don't, unless we're just trying to sort of confirm some of the biases that maybe we, we had already made up.

I don't really understand how Caleb Williams, uh, can't be considered one of the top 100 players in the NFL this season.

Thanks, Adam.

Yeah, thanks, guys.

Always appreciate talking to you, and hopefully we'll be doing it again next year.

I'm sure I'll talk to you all soon.

They've been mentioned as the best team in football through stretches of the season.

They may still be the best team in football.

They may still be the Super Bowl favorite in some people's eyes.

And understanding they have, bar none, the best offense in all of football.

But despite that, the counter from the Bears is not, well, I think our defense is the best defensive football.

We can really stymie this offense.

It's no, it's we can keep up with this offense and maybe just outgun the Los Angeles Rams.

And if I told you then, by the way, the starting left tackle will be out for the season as the playoffs start, you would have been worried.

it's actually worked in the Bears' favor that they were able to work in guys like Theo Benedet, who's now got practical playing experience, along with Ozzie Trapillo, who's now out for the season, but also Braxton Jones, who, if you're looking at backup left tackles, the Bears could be in much, much worse situations than the one they are in now.
