Caleb Williams Breaks Aaron Rodgers’ Record for Consecutive High-Workload Games

Defined by games with at least 20 pass attempts and no more than one interception, the mark signals Williams’ shift to steadier game management as the Bears sit 6-2.

Overview

Williams extended the streak to 36 consecutive regular-season games in Monday’s 34-17 win at Seattle, finishing 24 of 34 for 247 yards and one touchdown without an interception.
The record counts only games with 20 or more pass attempts and allows one interception, so it measures a quarterback’s ability to handle a heavy passing workload without letting one mistake become multiple giveaways.
Chicago’s game plan in Seattle required patience and complex reads, a challenge Ben Johnson said was among the most elaborate he has asked of the quarterback.
Reporters and analysts point to measurable changes in Williams’ play—higher completion rate and lower average depth of target—while also noting specific errors in the game such as a fourth-quarter delay-of-game penalty and throws he conceded could be better.
The milestone replaces Aaron Rodgers’ tie on a Bears-linked stat and has boosted national chatter about Williams’ rise, but coverage stresses the streak’s limits and that continued consistency will determine the quarterback’s longer-term standing.
