Chicago edged Las Vegas 25-24 on a blocked field goal at the buzzer, vaulting to 2-2. Williams sparked a second-half comeback, ripping a 27-yard TD to Rome Odunze and steering a late drive finished by D’Andre Swift’s 2-yard score with 1:34 left.

Kurt Warner lauded Williams’ maturation under pressure, noting a steady improvement and better pocket management week over week. The win underscored Chicago’s evolving offense and a defense that closed out the game in dramatic fashion, offering real fantasy intrigue as Williams grows into a more consistent weekly option.

Chicago escaped Las Vegas 25-24, but the bye week exposes big issues: an NFL-worst 6.2 yards per carry allowed and a stalled rushing attack; Williams rallied late, but the rhythm remains unsettled.

Return of Jarrett, Edwards and Gordon could lift the defense, while a left-tackle decision between Braxton Jones and Theo Benedet looms. Better protection and a steadier ground game are needed to unlock Williams' ceiling.
