Williams’ desire for championships resonates strongly with Bears fans who have long-awaited success on the football field. However, the prospect of achieving eight Super Bowl victories like Brady may seem daunting given Chicago’s prolonged championship drought. The Bears last claimed a Super Bowl victory nearly four decades ago.

Despite the challenges, there are high expectations for Williams, who is regarded by some as the most promising quarterback prospect since Andrew Luck.

The Bears’ unique strategy to connect with Williams

The Bears put in a lot of effort to establish a connection with Williams. They attended his Pro Day in Los Angeles and hosted him for a Top 30 visit at their Chicago facility. While it’s customary for potential draft picks to interact with team owners and coaches, the Bears opted for a different strategy. In an attempt to break their long-standing quarterback curse, the Bears arranged for Williams to dine with veteran team leaders like Cole Kmet, DJ Moore, T.J. Edwards, and other respected members of the roster. These reports came from ESPN.

The Bears officials recognized that their peers might be more receptive to their insights than the coaching staff. By fostering these connections, players like Edwards can gain insight into Williams’ mentality and share their observations with the rest of the team.

Moreover, the newly acquired receiver, Keenan Allen, has extended a warm welcome to Williams and praised his athleticism and football acumen on USC Pro Day. “[He’s a] hell of an athlete. Obviously, he can make tremendous plays with his feet and with his arm. He looks like he knows the game really well,” praised Allen.

The Bears’ current goal is to draft him and build a connection between the established players and their potential new quarterback Williams.
