The Lions didn’t start yesterdays game well at all. It looked like the Bears defense had their number. But despite the fact that we forced 3 turnovers on them, they scored 29 offensive points.
Johnson was able to play call 4 drives that went for touchdowns, and of those 4 3 of them happening in less than 180 seconds. That’s crazy to think of.
The Bears should hire him and let him decide if he wants to keep fields or get a different QB. He knows more about football than anyone in this sub.
Realistically, Ben Johnson will probably coach the Chargers or the Bills next year. Unless the bolts do something stupid like hire belichick and bills retain Mcdermit.
The Bears hopefully will be the second or third best job open.
Wild card head coach firings Bucs or Titans.
Keep in mind lions will be a playoff team so bears will need to wait. If the bears miss out on Johnson then Bobby Slowik is a really interesting candidate who is from the Shanahan tree. Both of these guys have demonstrated so far the got the offense to players they have in place.
Bears can also look at Kellan Moore (yuck), Jim Harbaugh (yawn and not really an offensive guru), Brian Johnson of the eagles (hasn’t put his mark on the eagles imo), Eric Bieniemy (Poles wouldn’t even interview him two years ago, so something major would have to change).
