Two chapters into Caleb Williams. The eponymous narrator finds himself employed by Squire Falkland, a somewhat reclusive individual with anger control issues who was once "the gayest of the gay". And now in flashback we are learning of Falkland's past and his adventures in Italy during his Grand Tour.

The #ChicagoBears are destroying #CalebWilliams just like they broke #JustinFields. Turning a great player into a guy scared to fuck up. That's why he is throwing over their heads and starting to run too much. Both didn't do that in college. The difference so far is that they've given Caleb better options to throw to. Eberflus is a great DC but not good enough as a head coach. And because that's his focus, we invested too much on that side of the ball instead of the offensive line. #NFL

I've seen #JustinFields do everything they tell me makes #CalebWilliams great. I've seen the highlights. Justin is more elusive, taller, stronger, faster. His long ball is more accurate. I'm not hearing that Caleb is an amazing pocket passer, which Justin struggled with but got better at as his protection and WRs improved. Why waste a top pick on what will be at best, a small improvement. The only argument that makes sense is the contract reset, but that's temporary. Damnit #ChicagoBears. #NFL

“The funky thing about the NFL draft process is, he’d almost be better off not being drafted than being drafted first. The system is completely backward. The way the system is constructed, you go to the worst possible situation. The worst possible team, the worst organization in the league — because of their desire for parity — gets the first pick. So it’s the gift and the curse.”

The #ChicagoBears situation solved this problem for him but I hate this attitude. #NFL
