He threw a TD

He figured out you want to get the ball to your guy in the redzone not the other guy

Possibly a turning point??

I mean it's a good first step :-)

Some really talented college QBs make it to the NFL and then we all find out that the NFL game is too fast and too complicated for them.

I got a long way to go before I say Caleb may not make it but he looks horrible. Lost, stupid, bad decisions.

Chicago may destroy all his confidence.

I am also curious about how much a situation matters. Look at Darnold. Granted it’s still early, but he’s been looking pretty solid.

Situation matters a lot.

Bryce Young has been destroyed. He may only be a backup but right now he can't even make waterboy.

I think the game will slow down for him. But it’s fun to watch him struggle. He has always been very arrogant. He’s eating humble pie right now.
[Reply]

Yup. That's why I don't care for him. But yeah, some QBs struggle early and then turn out okay. Look at Jordan Love. He was terrible his first year. Now he's doing ok.

He looks like a rookie QB, if I wanna be real honest, Anthony Richardson looks worse.

Still think you can do everything Mahomes does?

He was hyped as being “generational”… in the Mahomes category.

Having a Derek Carr-type career = bust, relative to the hype.

Same thing with Andrew Luck and Trevor Lawrence. Caleb has all the physical tools, but so did those 2 guys. We'll see how it goes over time. In the short term, I am enjoying Caleb's struggles. The kid needs some humble pie. Hopefully he embraces the situation with a better attitude than he has shown in the past. He has potential to become a better person, a better team leader, and a better player in the long run with a proper attitude adjustment.

He was thrown in the deep end of the pool and not coming up to the surface.

I'm telling you these new QB's need some time to soak in the speed and complexity of the NFL before they take the field.
[Reply]

Exactly! Which is why Mahomes sitting a year behind Smith was by far the best thing that could’ve happened to Mahomes

The Bears loaded up their offense with good WR’s, Swift at RB, etc.

He’s not walking into a dumpster fire situation.
