Walter Jacobson’s Perspective 4-25-24: A new day with a new quarterback is about to arrive

Walter Jacobson's Perspective

In the wild world of professional sports, for many months now in Chicago, thousands, possibly millions, of eyes and ears have been waiting to know what will happen in the National Football League, the NFL Draft, that begins tonight at 7:00 in which our Bear Down, Chicago Bears are expected to choose a new quarterback for the team and for us forever-hopeful Bear fans. He is Caleb Williams, 6 feet 2 inches tall, about 210 lbs, and a Heisman Trophy winner for the University of Southern California. During his two seasons at USC, he completed 67% of his passes for more than 8,000 yards and 23 touchdowns. His passes averaged 9.3 yards. Just imagine how nice that would be at 3rd and 10. And when not passing, Caleb Williams was running for more than 500 yards and 27 touchdowns. He is a star, no doubt about it. I am sad to have to remember the NFL Draft when our Bears did not draft Patrick Mahomes, ignored him to draft Mitch Trubisky, leaving Mahomes for the Kansas City Chiefs to draft and to win three Super Bowls and six NFL division titles. Thankfully, those days are gone and a new day with a new quarterback is about to arrive. So I’m singing, Bear Down, Caleb Williams, lead us to a Super Bowl and division championships. In advance, Mr. Williams, I for one, thank you, and am again hoping, and hoping, and hoping.
