Caleb Williams was detailing what was different Sunday when he said something that sounded obvious: new offensive coordinator Thomas Brown called the plays into Williams’ helmet faster than Shane Waldron ever did.
“Thomas being in control, just getting a few calls in super-fast,” Williams said after the soul-sucking 20-19 loss to the rival Packers. “As soon as a play happened, Thomas was right on the headset giving me the play.”
The quick calls enabled the Bears to break the huddle and get to the line of scrimmage, where they had time to vary their cadence “so the D-line can’t get a jump on the snap,” Williams said.
