Offensive Guru Ben Johnson Tasked with Reviving Chicago Bears

As the Chicago Bears gear up for the 2025 NFL season, they have made a significant move by hiring Ben Johnson as their new head coach. Johnson, who previously served as the offensive coordinator for the Detroit Lions, is tasked with leading the Bears back to their winning ways.

In his three years as the Lions' offensive coordinator, Johnson transformed the team's offense into one of the most potent in the league. Under his guidance, quarterback Jared Goff blossomed into one of the best passers in the NFL. The Lions' offense averaged over 33 points per game last season, ranking first in the league.

Now, Johnson's focus shifts to developing second-year quarterback Caleb Williams, whom the Bears believe can be their franchise quarterback. The Bears have also made moves to overhaul their offensive line and add more playmakers to the roster, all with the goal of creating an environment for Williams to thrive.

While the Bears face a challenging schedule in 2025, the expectation is that they will be able to compete for a playoff spot with the right coaching staff in place. Johnson's reputation as an offensive mastermind and his ability to get the most out of his players have made him a highly sought-after candidate, and the Bears are hoping he can work his magic in Chicago.
