🟢 TENSE: Caleb Williams Angers Packers Fans by Saying “They Suck!” — Romeo Doubs Immediately Responds with 5 Words That Leave Caleb Williams Speechless
Green Bay, WI – June 20, 2025 — A firestorm erupted in the NFL world today when Chicago Bears rookie quarterback Caleb Williams made a controversial—and arguably reckless—statement during a post-practice interview.
While discussing NFC North competition, Williams was asked about his thoughts on the Green Bay Packers’ defense heading into the 2025 season. His response stunned reporters and fans alike:
“They suck. Always have.”
The clip, which surfaced online just minutes later, immediately triggered a wave of backlash from fans, players, and analysts—and it didn’t take long before Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs stepped in with a measured but cutting five-word response that left the rookie stunned and the internet ablaze:
“Talk in January. We listen.”
🧨 The Quote That Sparked a Rivalry Inferno
Caleb Williams, known for his bold confidence, has never shied away from headlines. But taking direct aim at one of the most historically respected franchises in NFL history—especially one with a recent playoff appearance and an ascending QB in Jordan Love—crossed a line for many.
“I’m not scared of Lambeau. I’m not scared of their secondary,” Williams continued.
“The Packers? Come on. They suck.”
The reaction was swift.
🧠 Romeo Doubs’ Five Words: “Talk in January. We listen.”
While many expected Jordan Love or Coach Matt LaFleur to respond, it was Romeo Doubs, the rising third-year receiver and locker room leader, who stepped up. In a single X (Twitter) post, he delivered a cold, calculated five-word response that silenced the noise:
“Talk in January. We listen.”
The post has already gained over 12 million views, with fans and players praising Doubs’ class, leadership, and quiet confidence.
“That’s how you answer. No drama. No noise. Just facts,” said former Packers WR Donald Driver.
“Doubs gets it.”
💬 NFL World Reacts: “Caleb Better Be Ready”
Social media exploded with reactions:
-
@PatMcAfeeShow: “Okay Caleb… poking the cheesehead hive?? Dangerous.”
-
@AaronNagler (CheeseheadTV): “Romeo Doubs just became a legend in Green Bay.”
-
@MicahParsons11: “Gotta earn your stripes before you bark. Respect the game.”
The hashtag #TalkInJanuary is now trending nationwide, with Packers fans printing shirts and memes showing Williams “eating cheese” while watching the playoffs from home.
📉 Rookie Mistake?
Williams’ comment has reportedly not gone over well inside Bears camp either. According to insiders, veterans within the locker room have privately reminded the young QB about the dangers of fueling rivalries too early, especially one as fierce as Bears-Packers.
“This ain’t USC,” one anonymous NFC North veteran said.
“You don’t poke Lambeau unless you’re ready for the cold.”
🧊 Packers Camp Responds with Calm Confidence
Coach Matt LaFleur declined to directly comment on Williams’ jab, but hinted at the team’s mindset going forward:
“We don’t do bulletin board material. We do scoreboard material.”
Quarterback Jordan Love, when asked about the remark, smiled and simply said:
“We’ll see him soon enough.”
