Is Caleb Williams' wristband a game-changer or just another gimmick? What's your take?

Chicago Bears, who are trailing 1-1 so far, have their third game of the season today and we will see its quarterback wearing a wristband during the match. Not every signal-caller is spotted with one in the middle of the field, so the Bears must be preparing for some big changes in their usual offensive plays.

NFL insider Ian Rapoport credited Stacey Dales for reporting that Williams has made a choice for the team’s latest game against the Colts. As per the reporter, the Bears quarterback will wear a wristband for the first time.

He has made this decision “with hopes of having a faster and cleaner operation.” Rapoport called it a “smart adjustment“. This is a big decision coming after the team’s loss to the Texans during the second week of the ongoing regular season.

For those who are confused right now, the ‘wristband’ here refers to the band that hugs a QB’s non-throwing wrist with a list of plays that the team has prepared, along with corresponding codes and numbers.

This will allow Caleb Williams to just call out a simple number rather than an entire play sequence. While the Bears will be facing the Colts with a 0-2 record as of now, one shouldn’t undermine one’s opponent in the NFL.

Winning becomes essential for Chicago because sports enthusiasts don’t expect them to win against Indianapolis.

Basketball legend doesn’t believe in Caleb Williams’ team

LeBron James has retired from his basketball career after the Paris Olympics, but he is not staying away from the world of sports. You may have spotted him in some advertisements during the NFL season, but this is not where his passion stops.

James recently appeared on the GoJo and Golic podcast and shared his thoughts regarding the September 22nd game that the Bears are playing against Indianapolis. As per the Lakers legend, Chicago might go home with another defeat this week because of their pattern in the season so far.

When asked about who would win according to him, LeBron James claimed that he would rather bet his money on the Colts. This is because he recognized what made Chicago play terribly so far.

The NBA legend thinks that the fatal flaw in the team is that they have troubles performing under pressure. Now, in a perfect world, it wouldn’t be that big of a deal. But being a part of the NFL and still not being able to keep up with the pressure can really cost you a match.
