Mics caught Caleb Williams smartly measuring heavy wind for his perfect deep TD pass to D.J. Moore

Caleb Williams was clearly born to be the Bears’ QB.

The more time passes, the more Caleb Williams looks comfortable in his own skin as the Chicago Bears quarterback. While it’s still early to make a definitive judgment on the exact kind of NFL player the rookie No. 1 pick will be, he keeps showing us eye-opening signs he was probably born to be a star quarterback for the league’s charter franchise.

On Sunday, it was Williams taking the elements into account — namely, the customary heavy wind at Soldier Field — before dropping an absolute dime to star receiver D.J. Moore. NFL Films captured Williams smartly using a water bottle to gauge the wind’s direction and how he’d have to aim a pass to pitch the idea of a deep route to Moore right before their connection.

Because of course he did. That’s what any smart, forward-thinking quarterback would do. (Psst: it can obviously be very windy in Chicago. This is a great thought and skill to have if you play there regularly.)

It worked out exactly as intended.

I mean, my goodness. It’s hard not to think the Bears have finally found their first truly great franchise quarterback in history after seeing a cool little clip like this. Williams really might be The One.
