Johnson rips Bears' offense after loss to Lions

""I was not pleased with the offense today," Johnson said."

""We can't dig ourselves in a hole like that. I was disappointed with the offense as a whole. I let those guys know that. And we'll be better for it.""

""That's one we'll have to take a look at the tape and figure out why that was," Johnson said. "I didn't feel like it was one of our more elaborate plans. I felt it was one of our simpler plans. We need to do a better job of executing it and coaching it up.""

""We came out a little flat and I think we've got to work on having urgency from the jump and get that going," Williams said. When asked for his biggest takeaway from the loss, Williams characterized the Bears' play as "not good enough to win." "We've got to get better both sides of the ball," Williams said."

The Chicago Bears secured the NFC's No. 2 seed after Washington beat Philadelphia, despite losing 19-16 to the Detroit Lions. Chicago endured its second straight loss and was held scoreless for three quarters, following a shootout defeat the previous week. Coach Ben Johnson expressed clear displeasure with offensive performance, calling the offense disappointing and urging better execution and coaching. Quarterback Caleb Williams said the team started flat, lacked urgency and characterized the performance as not good enough to win. The Bears plan to review tape, correct execution issues and improve both sides of the ball before the playoffs.
