Film Session: Drake Maye's 2025 Season
I dive into over 35 plays from the first 10 games of Maye's 2025 season to show you what he’s been doing so well and where there’s still room for growth.
Through the Quarterback's Eyes: Caleb Williams
Caleb Williams was tremendous on the Bears’ final two drives against the Giants. He completed 5 of 8 passes for 77 yards and a touchdown, and used his legs to pick up 53 more yards as well as the game-winning score. That game-winner was set up brilliantly by Bears Head Coach Ben Johnson.
How Sean McVay Took Advantage of the 49ers' Weakness
On Sunday against the 49ers, Sean McVay ramped up his recent usage of "13" personnel to 44% of plays (30 total snaps) and did so with great success. The Rams picked up 202 yards (6.73 yards per play) and scored 4 touchdowns on those 30 plays. Stafford was also 9-12 for 117 yards and 2 touchdowns.
