From the article

Colston Loveland posted a goose egg, you would have called me a liar if you didn't see it in the box score. Caleb Williams went 21-for-29 in the game and had two throwaways. I think 2-3 of the passes he missed were intended for Loveland. Still, the fact that the Bears delivered this point total without Loveland being a receiving factor and without a 100-yard game from any receiver will terrify the league. Don't you dare drop or trade Loveland.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Loveland's goose egg in 59-point game doesn't reflect season value.

Loveland posted a goose egg in Week 1 despite the Bears scoring 59 points, but Waldman believes this is not indicative of his season-long value. Caleb Williams went 21-for-29 with two throwaways, and Waldman thinks 2-3 of the missed passes were intended for Loveland. The fact that the Bears delivered this point total without Loveland being a receiving factor and without a 100-yard game from any receiver suggests the offense has room to improve and Loveland will be more involved. Waldman says "Don't you dare drop or trade Loveland."
