Packers Players and Coaches REALLY Don’t Like Ben Johnson and the Bears

Hate is a strong word, but I really, really, really don’t like you. I never thought I’d reference a Plain White T’s song in a BN Bears post, but all bets are off when Bears-Packers Week arrives. One of the NFL’s longest-running rivalries has grown stale in recent years, mostly because Chicago’s organizaitonal ineptitude hand-delivering the all-time series lead to Green Bay in recent years. However, the arrival of the Ben Johnson era has shaken things up a bit. And while we aren’t at ...

Bears vs. Packers: Keys to a Chicago victory

The Chicago Bears have spent the last month passing every possible test their schedule threw at them. They beat bad teams, and they beat good teams.

L.A. Rams News: The NFC is the ‘Wild West’

The Dallas Cowboys were maybe the hottest team in the NFC behind the Chicago Bears going into Week 14, and they just lost a major game to the Detroit Lions who now (again) look like they have a real shot to make the playoffs, and overall, the NFC is the “Wild West”, and perhaps the […]

The Bear’s Den, December 5, 2025

Packers OC on Ben Johnson’s comments: ‘Yeah, you take it personal’

Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur stayed away from it. Defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley stayed away from it.

Are the Chicago Bears Frauds?

I have seen many a Green Bay Packer fan referring to the Chicago Bears and their lofty 9-3 record as “frauds.” I understand the impulse and would like nothing more than to join everyone in ridiculing the flaws of our neighbors to the South, but I don’t think that “fraud” is the right word. It […]

Caleb Williams on Bears Offensive Growth: “We’re So Close”

When asked what has carried this team since the spring, Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams didn’t hesitate to credit his head coach. “I think it starts with coach and what he told us he was going to be for us and how consistent he was and how consistent he is,” Williams said. “And then, from there, it’s just the things that he provided us that ultimately are going to help us win. The details, the discipline, and all those things … that’s something that he put up this morning is alwa...

Ben Johnson on the Packers D: “Might Be the Best We’ve Seen All Year”

I find myself gearing up at another level for this week’s Bears-Packers game now that we have reached the other side of Hump Day. And for me, that means I’m diving into what Bears Head Coach Ben Johnson has to say about his team’s upcoming opponent. For the record, I do not like saying nice things about the Green Bay Packers. They are the bane of my football existence, and I know I’m not the only Bears fan who feels that way. That team has caused me pigskin heartbreak more times than...

Rams must count on Chicago to morph back into the ‘Bad News Bears’

As we know, the Los Angeles Rams’ loss to the Panthers paved the way for the Chicago Bears to move into the NFC’s top spot. If both teams continue winning, it’s mathematically impossible for L.A. to clinch the top seed. However, the Rams are relying on Chicago to revert to their old ways, which is […]

Basically, it’s looking at how many explosive plays you’re creating on offense vs. how many you’re giving up on defense. Per a study by Brian Billick, teams that have had a +2 Explosive +/- in […]
