Confirmed: Chicago Bears hire Ben Johnson as head coach, and the now former Lions offensive coordinator joins the best coaching division in football https://www.freep.com/story/sports/nfl/lions/2025/01/20/ben-johnson-bears-lions-offensive-coordinator/77793017007/

In division is just terrible all around. Puts us at a huge disadvantage.

I'm glad it's him and not AG going to Chicago. I doubt he'll be able to duplicate what MCDC has been able to do.

I hope he gets the right support from the front office in Chicago.

Best of luck to you Coach Johnson!

Feels like a big FU to the Lions by staying in the division.

What a shitty way to leave, and to stay in division? Hope nothing but the worst for him.

Right now I am not sorry to see him go. It’s a business and all but these asst coachs weren’t focused during playoffs on the Lions.

I can’t believe these takes

Happy for him but was hoping he would stick around a bit longer since he’s so young yet

Not a fan of having to play him twice a year now. But now it will be easier for Johnson to ignore Gibbs since he won’t be on the Bears.

Hopefully he forgets to run the ball there too.

Lions fans are going to have a field day with this news. I'm sure we will all be happy for him...
