Caleb Williams had another strong performance during Week 2, but this time, he couldn’t secure a win as the Chicago Bears fell to the Houston Texans 19-13. However, during the post-game press conference, the young quarterback sent a warning to his teammates and NFL rivals about what to expect from him and the franchise in the coming weeks.
In his post-game comments, Williams expressed his frustration over the loss, highlighting that the team failed to execute plays effectively and criticizing himself for the two interceptions he threw, calling them quite frustrating.
“We didn’t execute the way we needed to,” Williams said. “We’re going to keep getting better. Everything is about the response. It’s Week 2 with the guys… I’m a young guy, I understand it’s a long season, and I understand we’re going to respond. I will just get better every day at practice, focusing on all the different aspects throughout the weeks, paying attention to details and things like that.”
The Chicago Bears’ quarterback was unafraid to admit the mistakes made during the game. When asked about a slow start, he attributed it to poor mental coordination and assured that he would work on improving that.
