REVIEWED AND CONFIRMED!!! Caleb Williams' game-winning TD is the FIRST throw this season to earn a +2 on the PFF Grade scale (the highest grade possible) It is just the 31st throw in PFF history, including preseason and playoffs, to earn a +2

The #Bears got the best head coaching candidate since Kyle Shanahan. I’m actually numb. They made an absolute slam-dunk hire.

UNREAL!🤯🤯🤯 #Bears QB Caleb Williams makes one of the wildest plays you’ll see this year and it’s not even week one. Chicago passed on Mahomes once, they wouldn’t let it happen again with Williams. 👏👏👏

At the Newberry Library and on stage, the return of Mike Royko

Now, that’s an eye-opening letter to the editor: Brandon Johnson's critics are nothing like the old 'Vrdolyak 29' - Chicago Sun-Times chicago.suntimes.com/letters…

Brandon Johnson's critics are nothing like the old 'Vrdolyak 29'
