It will look different for the Bears on offense this year than it did with Ben Johnson's Detroit attack and roles for returning players in Chicago's offense can be altered.

NFL analyst Brian Baldinger is looking forward to watching this Ben Johnson-led Bears offense in action in 2025.

Turns out it was a smart decision — though it helped that Johnson himself wanted the Bears job from the beginning.

There's one thing we're definitely not going to do and that is come here and say that Ben Johnson was a bad offensive coordinator for the Detroit Lions. He was spectacular and was a big reason why the Lions had one of the league's top offenses for the last three years in a row.

There's been plenty of excitement with the Chicago Bears hiring Ben Johnson as their new head coach, and rightfully so. Johnson led a top-five Detroit Lions for the past couple of seasons, and he's the perfect guy to help develop quarterback Caleb Williams.

The Bears have touted tight end Cole Kmet as one of the best players in the league at his position, but they didn’t utilize him as such in 2024.
