| 0:00.0 | You're listening to Rahimi and Harris, midday's 10 a.m. to 2 on Chicago Sports Radio 670 |
| 0:08.0 | with the first pick in the 2024 NFL draft, the Chicago Bears select Caleb Williams. |
| 0:17.8 | You know, history's the history. Like, I'm kind of done talking about it. |
| 0:21.2 | Like, we go back so much all the time and that those days are over. |
| 0:30.4 | Are you as high on Caleb Williams now as you were when the Bears first drafted him. |
| 0:37.9 | 312, 647, the number here. |
| 0:41.7 | Chicago Sports Radio 670, the score. |
| 0:43.3 | It's Mark Grody and Arami McLaugh. |
| 0:45.5 | In for Layla and Marshall. |
| 0:47.8 | Both are off today. |

| 1:36.3 | Andrew Luck, that has taken a slight hit with me. Still think he's been good. And I said it yesterday, |
| 1:42.7 | if I still had the press the yes or no button on Caleb Williams, it's still yes, but I'm not as convinced as I was when they drafted him. |
| 1:50.4 | My concern was never necessarily Caleb Williams. And not that there aren't, you know, holes in his game or weaknesses that he can work on. My concern is as a lifelong Bears fan and watching them break every quarterback that they've ever |
