C.J. Stroud led the Houston Texans to a 19-13 victory over the Chicago Bears, outshining rookie quarterback Caleb Williams, who struggled under pressure and finished with no touchdowns and two interceptions. Stroud, who completed 23 of 36 passes for 260 yards and a touchdown, offered Williams encouraging advice post-game, emphasizing the importance of confidence and resilience, as Williams adapts to the NFL. The Bears' offensive line issues were evident, as Williams was sacked seven times and faced constant pressure from the Texans' defense. Despite showing potential, Williams’ performance raises concerns about his development due to inadequate support from the Bears' management. As the season progresses, both quarterbacks will need to navigate their unique challenges, with Stroud enjoying early success and Williams facing a steep learning curve. The NFL community remains hopeful for Williams' future, but immediate improvements to the Bears' offensive line are critical for his growth.
