  1. Caleb: leads team to 4-12 record, has committed no turnovers but also hasn't changed the offense. "Media expectations too high"
    Purdy: leads team to NFCCG as Mr Irrelevant, coming off the bench as a third string QB, proceeds to lead team to Super Bowl next year. "Move the goal posts Dusty, this kid ain't good enough"

  2. Nick had Caleb on Mahomes mountain 2 years ago and now is upset people are holding him to a higher standard than other rookies 😂

  3. Nick in offseason said he would take Caleb over Lamar and had him on the qb mountain over Lamar and Josh Allen….nick today “the media is being unfair to Caleb” 😂 he’s such a clown

  4. Nick wright putting Caleb on the mountain above QBs with playoff wins before he even played a snap in the pros, just madness.
    Then trying to defend his decision and not calling Calebs perfomance by its name "mediocre" – even more nonsense!!!!!

  5. Now all of a sudden the bears are a team that can’t win. When all offseason he was preaching this the best rookie we and best situation to be drafted to. This man is flipping flopping on sides more than Kd 😂😂

  6. Brou and Wildes hold him accountable, but never on his uniformly negative takes on the Broncos. Nick is a KC homer, through and through, and has hated everything Denver his entire life. So we get revisionist history like “Bo Nix has better weapons that Caleb”. Other than coaching, he has no real advantage other than a healthy o line. He has no top tier WR (Sutton is at best #2 on any other team), no receiving TE, one of the worst run attacks in football, a now regressing defense that was punching above its weight, and a roster rated by PFF to be bottom three in football preseason. Meanwhile, team is eating the biggest dead cap in NFL history. Spare me the bs Nick. Nix is doing more with less, your Broncos hate notwithstanding.

  7. I haven't been wrong for the last 8 drafts on who was gonna be the best QB in the draft! I said Daniels! Jalen Milroe will be the best QB in the 2025 draft!

  8. The man came in saying the “NFL is easy” and Nick you had him on Mahomes Mountain… WHILE HE WAS IN COLLEGE!! You both deserve blame! 😂

  9. Caleb’s a rookie who’s made rookie mistakes. There’s other issues, such as being in the most brutal devision in NFL history but anyway, how he grows will determine his eventual fate.

  10. Jayden Daniels offensive line is so much better that the Bears. Caleb stats with the worst offensive line in football is remarkable.

  11. Everyone who is bashing Nick right now doesn’t understand his point yall and Brou are horribly wrong

  12. Also i love KWs last statement. Give him ben johnson. Free trev!!let my boy cook.wear a hair net though cant let those flowing locks in da comida..

    Happy holidays yall

  13. Love Nick but he is full of 💩! My issue is the hype around this guy then the people like Nick coming out and making excuses. He himself said they would be in the Super Bowl and now he wants to make excuses for him. Caleb needs to be told he is bad in order to get better. Guy is missing wide open receivers! Peyton Manning and Caleb have NOTHING in common! Peyton makes the right play and Caleb only matters bc of his off script plays. Manning could never do the things Caleb does off script but he was the best at the every down plays you see the most in the NFL. Terrible comp!

  14. Why is nick comparing caleb to peyton?
    It’s be correct to compare him to his rookie class.

    Before the year started, everyone said it was the best situation for a rookie qb. Now, looks like the worst in his draft class.

    Update: did not expect him to also compare him to brady & burrow.

    This will go down as one of Nick’s top 5 worst takes ever

  15. Brou – thank you for your passion in holding Nick accountable. Both of you looking at Nick while he was spouting his nonsense was all of us at home too. He does not judge all quarterbacks by the same standard and it is irritating to listen to.

  16. Nick Wright blaming his own bad takes on other folks in the media. He's the Aaron Rodgers of sports TV hosts. Nick Wright blames Aaron Rodgers for the Jets head coach getting fired but he doesn't blame Caleb Williams for the same thing happening on his team. Aaron Rodgers makes guest appearances on a TV show hosted by two former NFL players but criticizes others who do the same while Nick Wright blames others for bad takes but wants people to ignore his bad takes.

  17. Calib is a student qb in his rookie year. He wasn't terrible wasn't good. Its ok tho most qbs should sit 3-4 years before playing chi is skipping steps to success.

  18. The Bears never learned how to build around a quarterback let alone develop one at all! Caleb running for his life and Justin had worse off in Chicago and did even better than Caleb!
