WHEN THE BEARS HAVE THE BALL
Rookie quarterback Caleb Williams will become the first Bears quarterback to start every game in a season since Jay Cutler started all 16 in 2009. Considering Williams has been sacked 67 times this season and rushed 78 times, that’s a significant accomplishment, regardless of his 23rd-ranked passer rating (87.4) and 30th-ranked QBR (45.5).
On the other hand, Williams also is nine sacks shy of tying the NFL record for most times sacked in a season — 76, by Texans rookie David Carr in 2002.
