I'm not even a Caleb hater. I've been defending the guy on the field and as a prospect up until now. The truth is I expected much better, and I'd be a little worried if I were a Bears fan.

Obviously players "want" their QB to be a team leader. Just seemed like a mistake to bestow that honor without it being first earned. Maybe the other players should see it as their job to lead the team this year while Caleb adjusts to the NFL. Broncos did the same thing. Trying to prop somebody up artificially rather than having them first earn respect on the field.
