Dammit. He didn't mention H.I.T.S once..

“We’re going to go after this thing,” he said. “And it’s going to take all of us in this room. It’s going to take this locker room. There’s nothing more important than that locker room and us serving that locker room and those players. They need to understand that. And they need to feel that from us every single day.

“And if we do that? The wins are going to come. The playoffs are going to come.”

This is weird. Johnson seems to have some boss energy in that first clip walking into Halas Hall. He's talking to all the people there like he's the one there running things when it's Poles who's their boss.
A HC should give off that vibe as well. Need to earn respect within the entire building. Not just the players. He seems to be more vocal than I expected him to be, which is awesome

The BJ doesn’t do H.I.T.S, he rocks the S.P.E.R.M

I think no one really knew shit about Ben Johnson, and largely still don't.
Besides his great play calling, I’d agree. There were a few reports from Lions players stating he is very vocal and players don’t want to get in his way (Positive comments). Watching those videos of his introduction made me love the hire even more.

I can't really comment on who he is. I'm just happy the Bears opened the checkbook and got the most noteworthy offensive mind out there coming up to the head coaching ranks to be their head coach. I was fully prepared for them to bring in a guy like Mike McCarthy and listen to them talk about how excited they were to hire a former superbowl winning coach after he just effectively got fired for underacheiving with Dallas.

Don’t think McCarthy would have been the worst choice, but who gives a sh*t about that guy right now. He can go have fun dealing with the Saints.

Week 1: "We didn't come out there organized and that's on me." (Spent the week doing TikToks for Corporate)

Week 6: "The protection needs to get better, and it will get better." (OLine is bad again and getting worse)

Week 9: "Its a difficult loss, you know sometimes you forget and kneel in your own endzone for a walk-off safety." (Something about a distraction)

Week 12: "Obviously the year hasn't gone how we wanted." (Full Bears, somewhere around 10 losses)

Week 17: "We hope to see Caleb back for camp, but obviously the injury was serious in a meaningless game." (George said Mom wanted to see CW play)

He reminds me a bit of Gruden. The energy.

After lion fans were calling Ben Johnson the best play caller in the NFL for the past three years and saying he would never come to the Bears, well look at this. Those same sorry ass lion fans are now calling him traitor Benedict Johnson for NOT taking a far worse job with the Raiders.

Lions fans are saying this wont make a difference anyways cause caleb is a bust.

A ton of them legit thought aidan o connel was a better QB than caleb williams. WTF?

Ben Johnson turning down more money to choose Bears shows belief in Caleb Williams Ben Johnson turning down more money to choose Bears shows belief in Caleb Williams

I dont think he turned down more money. He always wanted the bears, its pretty clear he was just using the raiders as a bargaining chip to get more money from the bears.

This is based off a report from some local raiders media guy, who has egg on his face(and getting backlash from raidernation) for saying ben johnson was going there. I wouldnt believe a single fucking thing he says lol
