Caleb Williams expected to crush Bears rookie QB records per Vegas oddsmakers
Vegas bookmakers aren't ready to call the Bears Super Bowl favorites just yet, but they are high on the Bears' chances to make the playoffs and have Williams as a front-runner to win the Offensive Rookie of the Year Award. In addition, they think he'll shatter Bears rookie QB records. Since the oddsmakers have -110 odds for Williams to hit 3,400 passing yards, it implies they believe he has a 52.4% chance of hitting that yardage threshold.
