Summary

Colin Cowherd breaks down one of the biggest stories in football — how Caleb Williams has transformed from a disappointing rookie to an elite NFL quarterback under head coach Ben Johnson, as the Chicago Bears surge into the NFC playoff race

Plus, 3-time Super Bowl Champion Eric Mangini joins the show to reveal why Bill Belichick could be plotting an NFL comeback with the New York Giants, and what that would mean for the league’s coaching landscape
