After last season’s success, Caleb Williams has everyone taking the Chicago Bears seriously. The Bears are shaping up to be one of the best teams in the NFC for years to come instead of being the laughing stock they were in the past. Everyone is keeping an eye on the Bears and where Caleb Williams can take this team. Now, the Bears have become a destination where stars want to land.
In a recent article for Bears Wire, Alyssa Barbieri broke down the interview that took social media by storm. Maxx Crosby and Caleb Williams were interviewed for the podcast over several days, and Barbieri breaks down the highlights. Here are her and Maxx Crosby’s thoughts on Caleb:

“Last season, the Chicago Bears pulled off the first of seven fourth-quarter comebacks in Week 4 against the Las Vegas Raiders when Josh Blackwell blocked the game-winning field goal. But one of the biggest takeaways was a monster performance from Raiders star edge rusher Marquez Crosby.
So when Williams appeared on Crosby’s podcast “Max Crosby’s Rush” this week to discuss a variety of topics, it was certainly worth noting. But what really stands out is what Crosby said in closing, and his comments speak volumes about what he believes Williams can accomplish in his career.
Here’s what Crosby had to say about Caleb Williams:
“Just to be open and honest, bro, like we talked about before, but respectful on a different level, bro. You’re definitely one of them, and you’re just getting started. I don’t even know if you understand how good you can be, that’s the scariest part. You know what I mean? Just stay in that mindset, keep doing what you’re doing, you know we’re always going to be locked in. So keep doing your thing, bro. Hit me up anytime you need me. And vice versa.”

Barbieri went on to say:
“It’s clear that both Williams and Crosby hold each other in high regard, and you have to wonder if they’ll end up together in Chicago. It does feel like Crosby is on the trade block this offseason and the Bears are in the early stages of the Super Bowl window with Williams and other offensive contributors on rookie deals. This will be when general manager Ryan Boles makes a big move. Will that happen? It remains to be seen. But it will certainly be welcomed by the team. Williams and Crosby have developed a great relationship.”
Caleb Williams and Max Crosby definitely want to be teammates. The two men have a lot of respect for each other, and Max Crosby loves nothing more than having a quarterback like Caleb Williams. This interview only added fuel to the fire of rumors and speculation about the Bears and Raiders making a trade this offseason.
Caleb Williams has won over just about everyone, but that will help this team’s recruiting. People know that to win, you need to have an elite quarterback. Caleb Williams has proven that in his short time in the league. Max Crosby won’t be the first or last star player to try to make the trip to Chicago to play with Caleb Williams.

The Bears are an absolute natural fit with Caleb Williams and Ben Johnson. Both men are true rivals. The Bears offense will be in good hands going forward. If the Bears could find someone who looks exactly like those two, a guy like Max Crosby, that would make a difference. Crosby will take this team to a whole new level.
The Bears should already be a team that can repeat and win the NFC Championship in Seattle next season, as long as their roster remains intact. If you add Max Crosby to this defense, the Bears would be on the same level as the Seahawks and maybe even the favorite to win it all.
