The Chicago Bears secured a 24-22 win over the Green Bay Packers in Week 18, marking their first victory against the Green Bay Packers since 2018, and it was the proper way to finish their rollercoaster 2024 campaign.
Despite finishing his rookie season with a 5-12 record, Caleb Williams acknowledged that wins like these will give his team some momentum ahead of next season.
“I’ve been learning the history about the Bears. We haven’t beat Green Bay. I think they said here, since 2015 and then we haven’t beat them in, like, the past 12 times we played them, and so one, that’s a start, and that’s a good start to the 2025 season,” Williams told the media in the postgame press conference.
“I know it’s over for us, and it’s sad for me and not being able to be around these guys anymore, but that’s huge. We had, you know, this and that, but to be able to keep fighting, and that’s been the theme of the year, I would say, for us is, you know, as Bears, is being able to keep fighting and keep going,” he added.
