Ben Johnson, previously the offensive coordinator for the Detroit Lions, was named the 19th head coach of the Chicago Bears, aiming to revitalize a team that finished last season with a 5-12 record. Johnson views the Bears as a 'sleeping giant' in the NFC North and emphasizes the importance of their quarterback, Caleb Williams. Johnson's past success with the Lions, where he developed a top offense, positions him to build a tailored scheme for Williams, highlighting a collaborative approach rather than merely adopting his previous playbook.
"There's no doubt Caleb played a large component into my decision. He is a phenomenal talent that had... an up and down rookie year."
"From Johnson's view... the Chicago Bears were a 'sleeping giant.' No team in the division gave him more concern than Chicago."
