Every head coach has a goal upon arrival at their new position. Lovie Smith said he wanted to be Green Bay, and Matt Eberflus desired to change the culture. It is always interesting to hear how these men are wired because it offers insight into how they'll approach the locker room. Ben Johnson was...
The Chicago Bears seem ready to be aggressive this off-season. GM Ryan Poles spent the past three years building this roster to a point where it feels close to competitive. One more good push might get them over the hump. That could involve a strong statement in free agency next month. Poles has...
All signs have pointed to the Chicago Bears making a run at former Pro Bowl guard Trey Smith once free agency opens next month. It makes sense. He's the best offensive lineman on the market, and the Bears badly need good ones. GM Ryan Poles helped draft him in Kansas City when he still worked for...
Ryan Poles has developed certain habits in his first three years as the Chicago Bears GM. One that stands out is his preference for targeting players with regional roots. T.J. Edwards, Cole Kmet, and Jack Sanborn are some examples. He seems to believe that adding such players will lead to them...
Giving grades to head coaching hires always feels pointless, considering nobody can predict what will actually happen once those men embark on their missions. Guys that seemed like complete wastes of time turned out great, and vice versa. Still, it is encouraging to see the Chicago Bears receive...
If there is one thing we know about new a coaching staff coming in, it is that suddenly, not everybody on the roster should be considered safe. Not only will certain guys be cut or allowed to leave in free agency, but there is a possibility that one or two might be traded. It happened in 2022 when...
The Chicago Bears will be active in free agency. Everybody expects it. They have a new coaching staff in place that likely has certain preferences for the players they want. The focal point will be the offensive line. Nobody doubts GM Ryan Poles will make a strong push to nab former Pro Bowl right...
Many Chicago Bears fans are nervous about the next two months. They know that this off-season will be heavily focused on fixing the offensive line. The problem is that the man most directly responsible for its construction up to this point is still in charge. Despite being a former offensive...
The NFL draft is about acquiring the best talent possible for your team. However, it isn't as simple as that. It also has to be about fit. Not every team runs the same systems, and football is a far more complex sport compared to basketball or baseball. Pass rushers who are 6'2 or under likely...
When the rumors were swirling that Ben Johnson might consider the Jacksonville Jaguars job, one of the persistent arguments mentioned was his desire to get out of the NFC North. It is one of the toughest divisions in the NFL, having just sent three teams to the playoffs. If he wants to maximize his...
After the Detroit Lions suffered their stunning loss to the Washington Commanders in the playoffs, news broke that the Chicago Bears were bringing in their 17th coaching candidate. The name involved was not one anybody saw coming. It was Tennessee State head coach Eddie George. The Bears had worked...
Caleb Williams almost seemed destined to work with Ben Johnson. The poor quarterback got catfished by fans impersonating the young assistant coach. It's only fair they ended up working together anyway. Williams admitted he let out a shout of excitement when he got the news. Johnson admitted he's...
