Caleb Williams has made a habit of turning chaos into calm. The Chicago Bears quarterback once again came through in the clutch, leading his team to a 24–20 comeback win over the New York Giants in Week 10, another night that showed why Chicago believes he’s the future of the franchise.
Down by 10 with just over six minutes left, Williams didn’t flinch. He led two straight touchdown drives, first hitting Rome Odunze for a short score, then taking matters into his own hands on the game-winner—a 17-yard scramble that left the Soldier Field crowd erupting. It wasn’t a designed run, but Williams saw open grass and trusted his instincts.
“I think it’s what the coach built for us,” Williams told FOX’s Pam Oliver afterward. “It’s that full 60-minute football we talk about in the locker room. It’s just our determination that we won’t go out without a fight.”

Williams ended up with 220 yards through the air and added 63 on the ground while finding the end zone twice. Yet it wasn’t just numbers, it was his cool under pressure that caught eyes, matching the poise he’s kept all year when things heat up. That victory pushed Chicago to a 6–3 record, its sharpest beginning since ’18, and marked Williams’ fifth time leading a winning drive late.
How Did Chicago Pull Off a Late Surge to Stun the Giants Despite Jaxson Dart’s Injury?

While the Bears are experimenting with various ways to seal games to their name, the Giants’ hopes to win are shattered again and again. New York had the upper hand much of the day, building a 10-point edge thanks to sharp throws from QB Jaxson Dart. Yet once Dart left due to a head injury late in the third, their momentum collapsed.
Star player Russ couldn’t add much to their offense. As a result, it went scoreless the rest of the games. Defensively, the Giants ran out, missing crucial tackles and having inadequate coverage in the end moments, which finally opened the room for Williams to take over, something Chicago’s young star didn’t hesitate to do.
Safety CJ Gardner-Johnson brought a big spark to Chicago’s defense. Just his second time suiting up for them, yet he dropped the quarterback twice, adding a forced turnover that flipped things their way. The fire he played with? Exactly what coach Ben Johnson’s been demanding nonstop: nasty, quick, never backing down till the clock hits zero.
As a player who never failed to say, “We’ve got this,” with his bold yet truthful stance, William revealed the importance of finding ways to win the game earlier, rather than relying onlast-moment wins. “We’ve got to find ways to win the game a little earlier,” he said.
The fan even gave multiple reactions:
One fanstated, “The Giants’ record this season away from MetLife Stadium is 0-6.”
Anothersaid, “It’s the majorly depleted giants.”
One fan chimes, “That’s a BIG WIN!”
One personremarked, “@grok full 60 minutes? More like a full 60 seconds sometimes, right?”
Anothersaid, “Fraud team.”
Still, wins like this say something about where this team is headed. Chicago is learning how to survive and thrive when the highest pressures are at their peak.
