This similarity between Caleb Williams and Steph Curry is undeniable

Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams has seen his first NFL preseason come to a close, and after just two exhibition games, fans are as excited as they've been in quite some time.

The Bears have never had a quarterback like Williams. Fans aren't used to watching such a skill set. The ability for Williams to extend plays, stay patient and calm while then making the correct read and perfect throw is something we're not accustomed to. It's different.

It's special.

And, what Williams did last weekend against the Cincinnati Bengals looked like that of a seasoned veteran. Heck, even current NFL stars see a similarity between Williams and the likes of Patrick Mahomes.

The one play no one can stop talking about, from the Bengals preseason game, has brought on countless reactions from fans and media. But, one Bears analyst has a unique, accurate take on the deep ball to Rome Odunze.

Greg Braggs Jr. of CHGO had been asked by some casuals, via social media, why Williams would ignore his open tight end on that long pass play. Before he hit Odunze, Williams had an open tight end that was not only an easy read, but a much higher-percentage play.

Caleb Williams not always taking the higher-percentage play gives off Stephen Curry vibes

Well, that is about as good of an explanation as you could possibly give to the question above.

Williams didn't hit his open tight end because he knew he was capable of doing something even more special.

It's funny, because fans had been clamoring for Justin Fields to take the easy reads and not do too much, over the past couple of years. Fields was also capable of making head-turning plays, but mostly with his legs. At times, Fields' tendency to hold onto the ball got him in trouble.

This is why Williams is different. He's proven that, when he hangs onto the football and extends plays, he's going to do so with a purpose in mind. Would it have been easier to hit his tight end, wide open, in the middle of the field?

Absolutely.

But, Williams isn't about taking the easy route. He knows he's far more talented, far more capable. That's why he waited another second and hit Odunze with what felt like a Steph Curry half-court swish.

Curry could take a whole lot more of those easy plays, hitting an open teammate in the corner or driving a clear lane. But why do the mundane when you're capable of doing what no one else can do? That's why Curry takes so much joy in drilling the long threes, just like Williams is going to forever take more pleasure in making the "WOW" plays.

Oh, and how about the mouthguard swagger? Curry likes to mess with his mouthguard and doesn't even have it in half the time.

Go re-watch Saturday's game and watch Williams a little bit closer and tell me that's not an accurate comparison, now.

Mr. Braggs knows his stuff, and this comparison was dead-on. Williams is gunning to be the Steph Curry of the NFL, and I have a feeling Bears fans are on board with that.
