Bears QB Caleb Williams Leads Dramatic Comeback Wins

In the 2025 NFL season, Bears quarterback Caleb Williams has established himself as a master of late-game heroics. Four of the team's six wins this year have come via game-winning drives in the fourth quarter, including their most recent 24-20 victory over the Giants last Sunday.

Trailing 20-10 in the final period, Williams led a pair of touchdown drives to secure the win for the Bears, who have now won 6 of their last 7 games. The young quarterback's ability to make plays with his feet was a key factor, as he had a 29-yard scramble to set up a touchdown pass and then scored the game-winner on a 17-yard run.

In total, Williams rushed for 52 yards in the fourth quarter alone, drawing praise from head coach Ben Johnson, who compared the quarterback to the famous escape artist Houdini. "He looks like a Houdini back there in the backfield," Johnson said, noting the strength of the Giants' pass-rushing front.

With their latest comeback win, the Bears have firmly inserted themselves into the playoff picture. While the team would prefer to avoid such nail-biting finishes, the confidence they've gained from knowing they can win even when trailing late should serve them well as they push for a postseason berth in the coming weeks.
