Yahoo Sports NFL on Caleb Williams
From the article
Williams presents a different challenge. He has the athleticism to escape pressure, extend plays and give his receivers extra time to uncover. He has also shown that he can attack downfield when the protection holds.
STACKED’s take
Williams' mobility tests Seattle's pocket-compression defense in key matchup.
Williams faces a Seattle defense built to keep quarterbacks in the pocket and force them through progressions rather than relying on improvisation. The Seahawks have successfully contained mobile QBs like Brock Purdy and Bo Nix, compressing the pocket and disrupting timing. However, Williams' athleticism to escape pressure and extend plays presents a different challenge; Ben Johnson can exploit this through bootlegs and play-action to give Williams simpler reads while forcing Seattle to account for his mobility. Seattle's edge defenders must maintain leverage and interior rush must compress without losing control to prevent Williams from turning broken plays into second chances, where Chicago's weapons could hurt them.
