Caleb Williams

At 37, he's in a career season, and that's what makes this so challenging.

We are looking at the Spider-Man meme to end all Spider-Man memes on Sunday when you consider the play callers that Sean McVay and Ben Johnson are, when you consider the strengths of these offenses, and frankly, some of the weaknesses of the defenses.

So here's the thing about that is I feel like with the Bears, take, for example, the discussion that has really bloomed, and Kaylee Kaler was on this.

She was on the afternoon show yesterday.

Definitely recommend go back and listen if you didn't hear it.

But the concept of changing your game plan because of the data you have, and that's what happened for the Bears.

They ran for it on fourth down.

They went for it more often.

Because they knew that the Packers had, especially over the previous month, dominated time of possession.

That includes the game against the Bears in Week 16.

So that said, you had a feeling, or Week 17, my bad.

So that said, you have a feeling that you have to do this in order to be able to move the ball effectively.

One of those fourths is going to hit.

You're going to have to use that drive because you don't know when you're getting the ball back and not because of your defense necessarily, but because that has been the style of the play calling and the drives that these Matt LaFleur teams had put together.

So that said, how does that strategy change this week when it comes to the playoff aspect of it?

I think the Bears' strategy arm is good enough to where it supersedes the playoffs not necessarily affecting these practices.

I think if you establish best practices, similar to what we saw there, deploying your game plan regardless, then I have a feeling that playoffs are not going to change it that much just because it's the postseason.

So I don't necessarily know if Sean McVay and his crew would change what they're doing so much so because of the postseason.

Did you get that impression from the game against the Panthers last week?

Well, and math may have done them a favor there, because what happens, the more times you see a team, the more often the outcome will happen that the better team will win the game.
