Ben Johnson on Bears QB Caleb Williams: "What he did yesterday in terms of evading that rush, that's a rare quality for most quarterbacks. I don't know many others in this league that could've done it to the extent that he did yesterday."

No sacks for the Giants today, a dual effort from the offensive line and Caleb Williams' Houdini acts. The last time the Bears had two games in a season in which they didn't allow a sack? 2016.

Bears S Kevin Byard on Caleb Williams: "Man, I've seen it too many times. When the game is on the line, and we need him to make a play, he has ice in his veins. ... He thrives in those scenarios. He doesn't flinch at all. So we know if the game's close, Caleb's gonna make it happen for us."

Today was Caleb Williams' fourth game-winning drive of the season, tied for the most in a season in Bears history (per @stathead.com). The others:
Jay Cutler (2009, 2010, 2015)
Bob Avellini (1977)
Billy Wade (1962)

Per PFF's charting, the Bears' 6 drops were the most by one team in a game this season.
November 9, 2025 at 10:31 PM
C.J. Gardner-Johnson is the first Bears DB with two sacks in a game since December 2006 (Ricky Manning).

Bears QB Caleb Williams on winning these one-score games: “It does build confidence. … It doesn’t matter what happened throughout the game, we can come through as a team.”

Fourth-quarter magic from Caleb Williams with the 17-yard TD run.

4 plays, 53 yards in 1:06

And just like that, it's Bears 24, Giants 20

CJGJ is third on the team in sacks this season (3). A shanked punt gives the Bears outstanding field position.
November 9, 2025 at 8:57 PM
Ain't over yet. Can the defense get a stop?

9 plays, 91 yards in 2:17 (without needing to use a timeout)

The Bears are now 2-for-10 on third down and 1-for-4 on fourth down.

Russell Wilson comes in, and the Giants run all over the Bears. A goal-line stand holds them to a field goal.

That was the drive the Bears needed ... until they got near the goal line. Caleb Williams was 4-of-4 prior to the incomplete end-zone fade, including a pretty ball to Colston Loveland.

Giants 17, Bears 10

Caleb Williams hasn't been especially sharp today, but he's also not getting help from his receivers/backs with drops. 11-of-21 for 99 yards (65.4 passer rating).

Bears could use a takeaway.
November 9, 2025 at 7:55 PM
Jaxson Dart now has 50 yards rushing on 4 carries and two touchdowns.

6 plays, 56 yards in 2:43
