The Chicago Bears started off the 2024 season with a 4-2 record and looked like contenders in a crowded NFC North.
However, the team has now endured an eight-game losing streak, fired both their offensive coordinator and head coach and now look like a team just waiting for the season to end. On Monday night the Bears fell 30-12 to the Minnesota Vikings as rookie quarterback Caleb Williams took more punishment.
After an especially crushing hit, Williams was spotted on the sideline and appeared to be in significant pain. Former NFL linebacker and current on-air personality Emmanuel Acho suggested Caleb's behavior was a bad "look" for the quarterback.
"This doesn't look good by Caleb Williams or for Caleb Williams…" Acho said.

Fans in the comments section weren't too pleased with Acho's comments given the fact he just took a crushing hit before going over to the sideline.
"Caleb took a huge shot to the ribs on the hit immediately preceding when he came to the bench. After getting up slowly. Look at his face. That's pain, not despondency or drama. He's hurt," one person said.
"Am I the only one who noticed he's in pain in this clip? Not it emotional agony?" asked another.
"For context Caleb Williams took a hard hit to the ribs and then went to the bench and showed signs of pain. Be better with how you word what you say @EmmanuelAcho," offered a third.
"Did you even watch the game and see what happened prior to this??" asked another.
Williams finished the game 18-of-31 passing for 191 yards with one touchdown and no interceptions as the Bears fell to 4-10 on the season.
