The Detroit Lions went 15-2 last season. It was their best record in franchise history and a surefire sign they were a Super Bowl contender. Sadly, Jared Goff's meltdown (four interceptions) and a defensive collapse led to a crushing divisional round loss to the Washington Commanders. Mere days...
There were whispers about Ben Johnson even before he joined the Chicago Bears in January. For all his brilliance as an offensive play caller, his reputation spoke of a coach who was abnormally obsessed with details. Players felt the wrath whenever they made mistakes, even little ones. The term...
The Chicago Bears had probably the most physical practice seen at Halas Hall in at least the past 20 years. Veteran beat writers said they'd seen nothing like it since the days of Lovie Smith. Head coach Ben Johnson was out to send a message. He wants a physical team. Smash-mouth football will be...
The Chicago Bears know the offense must make the biggest strides for this team to become a legitimate contender. It was the primary reason Ben Johnson was hired as head coach. The challenge is doing that without sacrificing the defense. Previous head coaches failed to achieve this balance. Matt...
Coming to the Chicago Bears was an easy decision for Ben Johnson. Not only did he get the chance to take over a city that he'd grown to love in recent years, but he'd work with one of the most talented quarterback prospects in recent memory. Caleb Williams was a big reason why he took the head...
The first depth chart doesn't tell the whole story of how a football team will look when actual games begin. However, they should not be ignored because they at least offer a sense of which way the coaching staff might be leaning. The Chicago Bears released their first of training camp under head...
Probably the most unappreciated group of people on a football team is the position coaches. Okay, that isn't precisely accurate. The quarterbacks coach and offensive line coach get plenty of love for what they do. However, not enough people talk about other areas like tight end, linebacker,...
Something was in the air at Halas Hall on Tuesday, August 5th. There was almost a low thrum of energy. Head coach Ben Johnson spoke with the media before a 12:30 p.m. practice, explaining how he wasn't happy with how the Chicago Bears' offense performed at Family Fest two days prior. He indicated...
Ben Johnson came in with a plan. He knew the massive challenge in front of him when he took over the Chicago Bears. This organization has been mired in mediocrity for over a decade. They have one winning season since 2013 and no playoff victories. Not only would he have to pull the team out of the...
If you weren't sure whether Ben Johnson was impacting this Chicago Bears team yet, that was put to bed after a wild Tuesday afternoon. It started with what many beat writers called the most physical practice in the last 20 years. The Bears offense and defense slugged it out literally and...
The Chicago Bears are having some hellacious practices to prepare for Monday night's game against the Minnesota Vikings next month. They feel this game is imperative for setting the tone for an important season. Everybody knows this is a really good team they'll be facing, having won 14 games last...
When they said Ben Johnson was intense and demanding, they weren't kidding. It has become apparent from the moment he took over as the Chicago Bears' head coach that things would be different. The days of players policing themselves and getting away with cutting corners are over. Johnson watches...
