Caleb Williams helps Bears end losing streak, now it’s time to find his next coach

New York Times  

GREEN BAY, Wis. — It took 10 losses in a row, 12 total in every way imaginable before the Chicago Bears put together that signature win. 📺: #CHIvsGB on FOX 📱: https://t.co/waVpO909ge pic.twitter.com/y6kHfLitF0 — NFL January 5, 2025 “I know there’s been times throughout this season where we’ve marched down the field in two minutes over and over again … and those situations didn’t go our way, whether it was the Hail Mary or a bunch of other things, and so being able to do it this way, being able to end the season off the right way,” Williams said, “being able to have the first win of 2025 vs. Green Bay on a two-minute drive, I couldn’t ask for a better way.” The 24-22 win meant nothing in the standings. But despite everything he’s gone through — the losses, the clock management errors, blocked kicks and converted Hail Marys — Williams didn’t see the fumble as an, “Oh, here we go again” moment. Williams isn’t going to ignore those “firsts.” “Being able to have the first win 2025, being able to have the first win since 2015 in Lambeau, being able to have the first win vs. Green Bay in 10 games and so it’s the first of a lot and really excited about this offseason, being able to grow for myself, the moves and people that we’ll get to be able to grow and make a monumental jump for next year and to be able to start next season off right.” When general manager Ryan Poles is interviewing coaching candidates over the coming weeks, he can show them tape of this win. Now it’s time for the next head coach to take that “something” and do what no one has been able to do in Chicago in more than a decade — make it a consistent winner.
