Caleb Williams is on Pace to be the Bears’ First 4,000-Yard Passer

Caleb Williams is well on his way to rewriting the Chicago Bears record books. While the Bears are currently the only NFL team without a 4,000-yard passer in its history, Williams is on pace to change the narrative and erase it from the annual preseason storylines that come up each year. Chicago’s QB1 has thrown for 2,136 yards in his first nine games this season. At this pace, Williams projects to throw for 4,035 yards. Not only would that number be a franchise-best that knocks Erik Kram...

The $100 million dollar man's miscue sealed his squad's fate as the league's worst through the first fifth of the NHL's 93rd offering, with only 4 wins and 10

More on the Emmanuel Clase and Luis Ortiz Indictments

As was the case when it was just an MLB investigation, I will be careful to say at the top that everything public about the Emmanuel Clase and Luis Ortiz betting scandal is an allegation .
