Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams had an impressive season opener against the Carolina Panthers, where he accounted for four touchdowns and helped lead his team to 59 points. But it was a different story in Week 2, where the Minnesota Vikings got the best of Williams and the offense in a 9-3 win.
Unlike Week 1, Williams was unable to get comfortable and into a rhythm thanks to Vikings defensive coordinator Brian Flores and the pressure brought on him, and Chicago's offensive line had an uncharacteristic poor outing. It was a rough showing for the entire offense.
Williams completed 15-of-26 passes (57%) for 138 yards and one interception. He recorded a 56.2 passer rating and earned a 63.6 QBR. To make matters worse, Williams suffered a hamstring
injury late in the fourth quarter that has his short-term future in question.
Here's a look at where Williams lands among the rest of NFL quarterbacks in Total QBR after Week 2, per ESPN.
