Maybe they haven't said he'd be as good as mahomes but it's the same tired line about being the next mahomes. To this day so many people treat every qb with a big arm and lots of throwing platforms to mahomes, as if to ignore his ability to process the game abd... way more importantly... Leadership.

I think Wisconsin chiefs got this kind of right. Caleb Williams definitely earns the talent hype and maybe he can live up to some of the talent hype. But I'm not sold on his leadership.

I just wanna hate the guy /shrug.

I mean, lol, i do believe in his talent. I do think he's the next closest thing to Mahomes in terms of off platform throwing, arm angles and so forth.

But there's just something about him....maybe it's his arrogance. Maybe it's his lack of respect for Mahomes (and i admit, im probably making a good part of that up).

And honestly, i don't care if im right to dislike him or not. I need a heel. And i've decided that Caleb is that heel.

I also want to hate him. I don't like his attitude, I don't like his face and I don't like USC.


But three throws into the game I was like welp.

I hate him because he's not Mahomes

Caleb is definitely arrogant, but that's probably true for every high level athlete out there. We'll see if he can live up to the hype in real games, especially Playoff games. He choked pretty bad against Notre Dame from what I remember. That was probably the biggest game of his college career and it wasn't pretty.

The weird thing about Caleb is that he has the kind of confidence and arrogance that seems rooted in insecurity. Sometimes it feels like he's trying too hard to convince people hes a leader. How will he handle adversity? Way easier to handle those things when you have talent but it raises question marks. Not just if he has the balls to deliver in big moments, but will he become a Russell Wilson or rgIII type leader players don't really follow.

The glazing of Caleb in the media today has been funny to watch. Lol boy i hope the kid can deal with the pressure these folks are placing on him. Do I think he can be a good qb? Yes. But we saw this same hype around Lawrence who actually won a natty and look at him now? The hype is going to make every defense and DC want to teach him a lesson. And now it's a matter of whether he can cope with it or not. That Notre Dame game was very revealing. The moment the defense got on top of him suddenly his confidence wasn't the same. And this is what separates Pat from others because he's been held down for three quarters before but steps up big down the stretch. We'll see if Caleb has that dawg in him.

UChieffy who do you hate more? Caleb Williams or Caitlin Clark?

I think Caleb is a better prospect than Lawrence (who I took a lot of flak for saying he was going to be a more athletic Goff).

But the college tape of Caleb shows a lot of careless throws. I think he will have some great games and some games where he throws too many picks.

Really interested to see how this guy pans out. I go back and forth.

One is white and the other is homosexual.

He hates the white one and identifies with the homosexual one.

kid is a bit of a douchebag

I almost want him to fail as much as Matt Cassel both have that huge entitlement factor. Cassel had it during the Pioli era never taking ownership of his mistakes.

I don't think this guy is going to bust. Maybe he won't be the elite of the elite, but I just doubt he's going to crash and burn in Year 1.

The next Russel Wilson IMO
