That is something Chicago has been starved for, is having that quarterback where you're paying him...
crazy amounts of money and say, this is our guy.
We don't care.
We're going to win Super Bowls with him.
And that's what you've been desperate to have in this city, or not this city, Indianapolis, but Chicago.
So the Bears are preparing themselves for that.
They understand that that scenario is on the table.
Ryan Poles also said, look,
I'm not saying anything's there, though.
He's got to improve.
He knows it.
Ben Johnson knows it.
The follow-up was, what does Caleb Williams need to do in your mind?
Ben Johnson kind of took the answer about stacking those consistent performances, being more efficient, putting the ball in the right spot to his wide receivers where they don't have to be reaching for you.
You're not misfiring.
And that 70% completion may be heard about before the season.
It didn't come close to that.
That was a benchmark that granted a high one that Ben Johnson wanted to see Caleb Williams close to.
You want to see more efficient, more consistent product from him in year three.
If that's the case, you're rewarding him with that top dollar and you're moving forward without any regrets.
