Caleb Williams refutes Paul Atreides comparisons, which is exactly what Paul Atreides would do

A great Chicago Bears quarterback is genuinely the last frontier there is in the NFL. It is not a happening most people could say they have witnessed in 2024. But the more time passes, the more it certainly seems like Caleb Williams — already an owner of a Bears rookie record — might be The One.

Or he might even be the Bears’ … Lisan al Gaib.

Just don’t expect Williams to admit that.

In a snippet from a new interview with NFL Network’s Kyle Brandt, Williams seemingly does everything in his power to refute comparisons to Paul Atreides from the fiction series Dune, a.k.a. the Bears’ “Lisan al Gaib,” a.k.a. the Bears’ “messiah.”

(Ahem) That’s even more reason to believe he is! Because that’s exactly what Paul Atreides would do!

Caleb Williams isn’t slick. Bears fans see and hear him, and I have a hard time thinking this interview won’t just reinforce their faith.
