It didn't take Ben Johnson long to realize that the Chicago Bears had problems. They didn't go 5-12 by accident. One of the things he noticed right away was how they practiced. It was bad. Really bad. Players tended to coast and cut corners, leading to mental mistakes. This was something veterans...
The Chicago Bears knew the quarterback room needed some adjustments before next season. While Tyson Bagent was a backup the team liked, there was one problem. He wasn't much help to Caleb Williams as a sounding board due to his own lack of experience. It was always felt that the team made a mistake...
Montez Sweat has played in the NFL for a long time. During his career, he has worked under some prominent defensive coaches. It started with Greg Manusky in Washington, then shifted to Jack Del Rio. That doesn't even include Ron Rivera, who was also a highly respected defensive specialist. At that...
One thing has been consistent about every Chicago Bears head coach for over 30 years: They all avoided the media like the plague and did their absolute best to remain as bland as possible. Most of them didn't get away with it. They still found a way to cause media controversies. It appears Ben...
The Chicago Bears focused the vast majority of their offseason efforts on improving their presence in the trenches. Free agency was the focal point of that push. While the offensive line got most of the attention for obvious reasons, the team was almost as active on the defensive side. Defensive...
Seth Wickersham of ESPN wrote a book all about the quarterback position, from the older generations to the current one. Among the most explosive sections of it involved Caleb Williams. He spoke with the USC star about his upcoming entry into the 2024 draft and soon discovered an uncomfortable...
The 2nd round of the 2025 draft was a hectic one for the Chicago Bears. It featured all sorts of twists and turns that GM Ryan Poles had to navigate. Initially, they planned to use their first of two picks on running back TreVeyon Henderson of Ohio State. Unfortunately, that fell through after New...
Ben Johnson knew what he signed up for. Yes, he was hired to coach the Chicago Bears. It was a dream that had been building for him going back years. However, the truth was that he was hired to coach Caleb Williams. The organization had the highest hopes for the former #1 overall pick. After Matt...
The new Chicago Bears coaching staff recognized almost right away that the previous regime's setup for Caleb Williams was laughably inadequate. They refused to give him any guidance on film study, expecting a rookie to handle it on his own. One of the more perplexing decisions last year was the...
The Chicago Bears liked how the draft had been unfolding through the 1st and early 2nd rounds. They'd nabbed two highly talented offensive weapons for Caleb Williams: tight end Colston Loveland and wide receiver Luther Burden. However, GM Ryan Poles had a problem. The Bears held two more picks on...
Ben Johnson was brought in to clean up the mess Matt Eberflus left behind. There might be more diplomatic ways to put it, but that is the truth. There were concerns that the former Chicago Bears head coach didn't have the expertise or adequate staff to develop Caleb Williams properly. Sure enough,...
The Chicago Bears had a plan going into the 2nd round of the 2025 draft. After securing playmaking tight end Colston Loveland with the 10th overall pick, they hoped to get head coach Ben Johnson some help at running back. Their hearts were set on Ohio State dynamo TreVeyon Henderson. His mix of...
