Cris Collinsworth praises Caleb Williams as Bears lead Buccaneers on Sunday night

During the Chicago Bears' Sunday night matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Cris Collinsworth expressed significant admiration for quarterback Caleb Williams, who threw two touchdown passes in the first quarter, putting the Bears up 14-0. While viewers joked about Collinsworth's enthusiasm for Williams potentially overshadowing his previous admiration for Patrick Mahomes, the Bears' success was highlighted by a 10-play drive capped with a touchdown to Rome Odunze, followed by a 4-play, 81-yard touchdown pass to Luther Burden III. However, Williams faced challenges, throwing interceptions on consecutive plays later in the game. The Bears are currently in contention with their fourth consecutive win, and the game concluded with a field goal from Cairo Santos for a 27-24 victory. Looking ahead, NBC's Week 10 Sunday Night Football will feature the Pittsburgh Steelers against the Cincinnati Bengals.
