Ben Johnson wrapped up the first presidency as Bears head coach on Friday night with a victory over Kansas City, but he was not at all happy
Despite going unbeaten in the front page (2-0-1), including victories of the latest participants in the AFC Championship, Johnson remains stuck on performing Chicago offenses.
“Insulting, the first two possessions were really striking football that has plagued us in and out of the camp so far and unfortunately that is what we got here tonight,” said Johnson after the 29-27 Bears victory over Chiefs. “There were many things we could have done better.”
The “sloppy” violation was managed by 2024 no. 1 in total Caleb Williams, which Johnson has spent over the past seven months building a raport that is crucial for Chicago’s success in 2025 and beyond.
The first two possessions of Bears stood in only nine plays, went 22 meters and produced only one first down. Chicago beat twice and Kansas City answered twice with points.
Among the slopes: Williams fuddled the first click on the wrong jet. Colston Loveland’s Bears newcomer followed that game with a false start. After the first down in the second drive, Williams was fired on the second and 3. The following third attempt was nowhere.
“It is disappointing for me for sure because I thought we were making our way out of it,” Johnson explained. “I am still learning this group too. This is our first time on the way and we were going to find out what kind of road tank we were going to be. If the first quarter was some clue, it was not good enough. We have to get better in hurry.
“The good news is that we will be able to watch this tape and train it with our boys. It is hopefully from our system for us to go for a normal season. We have to make sure we start faster breaks and defense.”
Williams and Bears violation responded to two drives following 139 meters in 19 games, eight first floors and 10 points-QB ended 11 out of 15 that went at night in 113 meters and contact with Rome Odunze-En slow start was Johnson’s main writing.
