In his two full seasons with Detroit, Johnson went 3-1 against Green Bay, including sweeping them in their two regular season meetings in 2024. As he stated in his press conference, Johnson particularly enjoyed beating Packers head coach Matt LaFleur twice in a season.

It's one thing to tease a friend, but Ben Johnson threw a verbal right hook at a rival during his introductory press conference on Wednesday.

Chicago’s introduction to Ben Johnson as the Bears’ savior-in-chief — a k a: head coach — seemed more coronation than filling the team’s latest coaching vacancy. Pomp and circumstance and ceremony on Dimethyltrienolone. A vibe unmatched by any hire (not draft or free-agent signing) since . . . well, since.
