Apologies to my readers who can’t stand the NFL, but last night’s game between the Minnesota Vikings and the Chicago Bears was one of the most “tales of two halves” I’ve ever watched. I missed most of the first offensive series, but I don’t think it would have been any more enjoyable than the rest of the first half of football. The Bears under quarterback Caleb Williams really were the better team on the field over the first 30-45 minutes of play (and I hate to admit it, but it was true). Williams completed his first ten pass attempts, which is apparently the first time that had happened for a Bears quarterback since the 1970s, and his amazing ability to avoid sacks kept the Vikings offense off the field. Even when they got on the field, they were not very effective, not making a first down until late in the first half.
