Tom Brady Says Caleb Williams Is ‘Perfect’ Quarterback For Ben Johnson’s Offense

Tom Brady praised Caleb Williams as the ideal quarterback to execute Ben Johnson’s high-octane offense, calling the Bears’ dynamic duo a perfect match during an appearance on *The Herd with Colin Cowherd*. Williams showcased his versatility in Chicago’s 34-17 win over the Seattle Seahawks, completing 24 of 34 passes for a touchdown while D’Andre Swift rushed for three scores and the Bears amassed 363 total yards.

Brady highlighted Johnson’s creative play-calling, which keeps defenses guessing with an array of unconventional schemes—ranging from trick plays to screens and deep passes—while leveraging the speed of Luther Burden and Williams alongside Swift’s power. The Bears’ offensive firepower overwhelmed Seattle’s top-tier defense, a sign of their current momentum entering Sunday’s showdown against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, where Brady will also call the Packers-Patriots game for FOX.

Brady drew parallels to Jared Goff’s development under Johnson, noting how the quarterback-coordinator rapport elevated Goff’s performance before Johnson’s departure. He also singled out rookie defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons, acquired from the Titans, for his immediate impact with a sack in his debut.

With both offense and defense firing on all cylinders, Brady warned that Chicago’s blend of creativity and execution will demand near-flawless opposition play to win, underscoring their current dominance across all three phases of the game.
