Last week, after the Bengals game, I asked Caleb Williams about his composure and keeping calm ahead of the final drive. Part of his answer:
"Also. when the emotions start going and the roller coaster starts going, you try and be on equal ends of the roller coaster where you start flat and end flat, you don’t try to be in the middle. I think that’s my mindset in those moments, and also understand the guys are looking at me to be as poised and calm as possible so that we can come out with the victory."

Today was Caleb Williams' fourth game-winning drive of the season, tied for the most in a season in Bears history (per @Stathead). The others:
Jay Cutler (2009, 2010, 2015)
Bob Avellini (1977)
Billy Wade (1962)
#Bears open as a 2 1/2-point underdog against the #Vikings for next Sunday's game at US Bank Stadium at Westgate SuperBook in Las Vegas. That's according to my guy @JoeFortenbaugh.
Going back and looking at that fourth quarter. Really good performance from Caleb Williams. Took some hits, was limping, looked exhausted from running. Still managed to lead two scoring drives including the game winner. Impressive.
You can just tell the confidence they have in him in that locker room.

"Man, let me tell you something now. This next guy, man. He's got ice in his veins. And if you don't believe it now, you just wait. The best is yet to come. 18."
