Caleb Williams showed well in the early going, threading a clean opening rhythm and using his feet to extend plays as the Bears built a near 20-6 cushion. A wrong-turn moment came when Cairo Santos pushed a 50-yard kick wide, and Chicago watched a dominant through three quarters turn into a chaotic, 27-24 loss at the hands of the Vikings. Williams kept the offense from committing a turnover, but a late fourth-quarter barrage buried the lead

For fantasy managers, Williams’ ground game and ability to avoid turnovers keep him in the weekly mix, while the missed kick and fourth-quarter collapse underscore how kicker variance and late-game defense can swing outcomes. Jefferson’s early impact and Odeyingbo’s pressure frame a game with high ceiling but volatile momentum swings, especially for Bears and Vikings players in lineup decisions.
