you really come to appreciate Caleb even more when you watch other QBs try and scramble. This is something you can’t teach

Houdini 🧙♂️🪄
It does but as he gets older he’ll need to keep working on holding his own in the pocket and playing within structure. Good thing he’s shown us this year he’s capable of it.
I mean that was honestly a fair assumption. Caleb is talented enough for it to translate but it usually doesn’t work that way
We got our guy and coach, finally
Caleb’s great at scrambling. Fields was on another level though
That clip where Wright sits bruns on his ass is one of my favorites.
Best Houdini escapes, but far from the best scrambler. Mostly because he doesn’t look to run.
The D Wright pancake at the 30 sec mark 😳
Sometimes people just say things
I love the way he gallops.
“Shout out mom”
I’d follow him into literal battle. I love this man
Houdini is my favorite nickname
The scrambling isn’t what they said wouldn’t translate… the part they said wouldn’t translate is Caleb just relying on being the best athlete on the field to overcome mechanics/mistakes
Watt sniffed it out almost immediately. I love that Caleb can do this, but hopefully as he gets older it becomes less of a necessity
Man that’s gotta be painful for teams to see happen. Have him dead to rights… and then he slips away.
Gonna be a long offseason. I’m going to miss watching this guy play every week.
Surprised he didn’t use his legs more down the stretch.
Just a little bit more.
I didn’t see much of this move last year and I’m curious to see how defenders adapt to it next year.
Don’t get me wrong, a lot of this is a great display of athleticism, it it’s also super impressive as a display of vision and awareness, which makes me thing it will age better than most scrambling QBs. I didn’t see a ton of big hits tho I know as he slows down he won’t be able to beat the elite edge guys to the corner, but goddamn.
The fact that this is also the guy that makes the most insane off platform throws and has a cannon… happy to let him develop his traditional game for 20 years as a Chicago bear.
I’m just so fucking happy we got our guy
Damn we really saw this kid grow up right in front of our eyes. Hell yeah bear the fuck down we got a QB!
This is great but what I appreciate is that as the season progressed he got rid of the ball quicker and didn’t need to make this moves as much. That’s development. I’ll eat my words, he improved more than I thought he would.
You know his ass always orders his eggs scrambled
Dude is SO fast.
I don’t know how many Bears subs like old Jackie Chan movies and appreciate drunken Kung fu. But I have decided that is the best comp for Caleb scrambling. It just looks like someone stumbling over themselves yet he never gets tackled.
We are so spoiled by this dude. Was watching the other playoff games and I’m like why doesn’t he just scramble out of the jam and then I realized only a few guys can do that.
Agree it’s not even close. I think our first half scoring problem could be addressed in part by encouraging Caleb to run more often — scrambles, not designed runs — the way he does at the end of games. This doesn’t have to put him at risk any more than standing in the pocket does.
This, but with the Benny hill theme
He lead a Bears offense that relied heavily on the run game and was inconsistant, at best, in the passing game. Lets not forget, the Bears were a blocked field goal and recovered onside kick away from missing the playoffs.
To be fair, Caleb is super human. This won’t work for 99% of QBs.
