Ben Johnson: NFL's New Play-Calling King?
30 Jul
Summary
- Ben Johnson ranked third among NFL offensive play callers.
- He was ranked first by at least one defensive coach.
- Johnson is now part of a new 'big three' of play callers.
A recent survey of NFL coaches and front offices has placed Chicago Bears offensive coordinator Ben Johnson in elite company. Johnson was ranked third among the league's top offensive play callers, a significant achievement that underscores his growing reputation.
Johnson received a first-place ranking from at least one defensive coach and was consistently rated among the top four. This places him in a new 'big three' of offensive minds alongside Kyle Shanahan and Sean McVay, who have historically dominated such rankings. The survey suggests Johnson is ascending rapidly in the NFL's strategic landscape.
Established play callers like Matt LaFleur, Andy Reid, and Mike McDaniel also featured in the top ten. However, Johnson's high placement indicates a potential shift in the league's hierarchy. Bears fans are optimistic that their team now boasts one of the NFL's premier offensive strategists, with predictions that he could claim the top spot in future surveys.
