Usually, around this time of year, there isn't much consensus on who an NFL team will take with their 1st round pick in the upcoming draft. That is because the pre-draft process hasn't concluded, and teams haven't addressed roster holes in free agency. By the start of April, you finally start...
People believe Jay Cutler retired after leaving the Chicago Bears in 2017. They often forget that he returned later that season to start for the Miami Dolphins, going 6-8 with two 4th quarter comebacks. During that time, he had an encounter with a young assistant coach named Ben Johnson. Neither of...
Have the Chicago Bears ever had an elite coaching staff? Not for a long time. The last time it may have qualified for that was when George Halas still patrolled the sidelines and had guys like George Allen among his assistants in the 1960s. Since then, the organization has had good staffs during...
The scouting combine is a necessary tool in the pre-draft process. It helps teams determine whether what they see on tape is confirmed by the data gathered in athletic drills. As the new head coach of the Chicago Bears, Ben Johnson will have his voice heard like never before. He will be able to put...
Jay Cutler was best known for his on-field play. His incredible arm strength and highlight-reel throws captivated Chicago Bears fans for eight seasons, during which he set every meaningful passing record in franchise history. While he never quite achieved the heights people had hoped for, most look...
The Chicago Bears appear to have settled into one of three possibilities for their new stadium. One is, of course, Arlington Heights. They own the massive 326-acre property and now have advantageous taxes on their side. Another is their preferred option, the museum campus south of Soldier Field....
If there were any lingering doubts about what must be done this spring, the Super Bowl put that to bed. Watching the Philadelphia Eagles dominate the line of scrimmage against the NFL's reigning dynasty makes it clear what GM Ryan Poles and head coach Ben Johnson must do. If they want to challenge...
Ben Johnson should not have been in the NFL. In fact, he shouldn't have been in coaching at all. Everybody who knew him in high school and college thought he was destined to enter the tech industry as a numbers genius, making a healthy living as a brainiac. However, a seed planted by his college...
There is no bigger cheerleader for the Chicago Bears at present than safety Jaquan Brisker. He's made his love for the organization evident all season, especially after getting sidelined with a concussion. His anguish at watching other teams play in the postseason has only furthered his...
Ben Johnson had earned his spot as one of the most coveted head coaching candidates in years. When you guide an offense to three consecutive years of top-five ranking, it should come with proper respect. Nobody thought the Chicago Bears would make that move, if only because they'd never done it in...
The Chicago Bears met with 17 candidates before making their head coaching hire. From the outside, many felt that was a clear sign of a franchise with no clear direction or organization. They were merely combing the desert, hoping to find an oasis. Former Panthers and Commanders head coach Ron...
If there was one hire by head coach Ben Johnson who could be categorized as a mystery, it was new offensive coordinator Declan Doyle. The 28-year-old has only been in the NFL for six years. Only two were spent as an actual position coach, running the tight ends for the Denver Broncos. That group...
