So I guess all the talk of Johnson not wanting the Bears job because so he didn’t have to coach in the same division as the Lions was BS

The Bears had a chance to draft both of these guys.

The author could be a disgruntled Lions fan but the article isn't a glowing endorsement of Ben Johnson - https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nf...n&cvid=9197bd06cf1c4fb9a8e89f360c864de6&ei=13
"In contrast, Johnson’s apparent self-serving tendencies suggest that his tactical acumen may not be enough to overcome his lack of leadership qualities. As history has shown, successful head coaches in the NFL need to inspire trust and loyalty—qualities Johnson seems to lack."

Sure sounds like a disgruntled fan.

Or a Commanders fan.

How's this for a quote? That's hilarious.

“I know this is the toughest division of football right now,” Johnson said, via Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press. “There’s three teams that made the playoffs this year. I’ve got tremendous amount of respect for the coaches and the players in this league having competed against them for the last six years. Dan Campbell, Kevin O’Connell, talking about two guys that are up for coach the year awards as the season ends here. And to be quite frank with you, I kind of enjoyed beating Matt LaFleur twice a year.
