Caleb's better than Mahomes!

RIP Ben Johnson’s Career

Seems like a good hire.

Caleb will be talked about like Jayden Daniels next year. They finally have a a good offensive coach and QB to go with it

It had to be weird for Ben Johnson, knowing that if the Lions made the Super Bowl, the Bears might get ansty and pull the trigger on someone else. Which is understandable, because for all they know some other team might come in and double their offer. Then they miss out on their first, second, and third choice.

Bieniemy got screwed on that when he was supposedly still a hot commodity.

No one should be allowed to talk to anyone until after the Super Bowl imo.

Raiders LMAO

Don't think Bieniemy was ever a hot commodity.

This getting done this fast pretty much means they really did not care about any live interviews and his agent had this already worked out before the Lions were elimintaed. Which also means the Bears would have waited.

Should be a great hire. Unfortunately it’s the Bears and it will collapse.

It’s a way better choice for him than Vegas.

Raiders will get Eddie George

I feel like this is inevitable. I think Johnson is probably the best HC candidate available, but I also know that CHI is where HCs go to die.

He was a name in the media for a few years and had several interviews.

Not saying he would have been good, but some of the names hired over him turned out to be truly awful.

I ****ing told some of you the Raiders noise was just that...

Get the media was pushing him. I just do not see him being anyones top pick and the Chiefs going to the Super Bowl was the reason he did not become a HC let alone two or morw teams vying for his services like Ben Johnson.
