Joe Buck was a fairly divisive broadcaster when he first started calling NFL games, but most fans have come to appreciate what he brings to the broadcast

Two days before he was announced as the Chicago Bears head coach, Ben Johnson coached in the NFC Divisional Round as the Detroit Lions took on the Washington Commanders. Tom Brady was on the call for FOX,

Las Vegas parted ways with the first-year coach-GM tandem of Antonio Pierce and Tom Telesco earlier this month, and the “allure” of Brady, a seven-time Super Bowl champion, was said to have helped the Raiders become an enticing option for Johnson, 38.

Perhaps this is why McCaskey believed the Bears were the most attractive franchise for any potential head coach. Chicago has won nine NFL championships, but only two since the conclusion of the 1946 season. Those came in 1963 and 1985.

Football commentator Joe Buck caught strays from Bears chairman George McCaskey on an unrelated topic about Tom Brady.

The Chicago Bears have completed an interview with Tennessee State head coach Eddie George for their head coach vacancy, the team announced Saturday. It marked the team's 17th interview in the first round of the coaching search -- and the third in-person interview (alongside Mike McCarthy and Ron Rivera).

Ben Johnson had a lot to say as the Chicago Bears introduced their new coach. His desire to create accountability and build a bond with GM Ryan Poles were top of mind.

Our mission, starting this spring, is to win and to win now,” Johnson told an audience of Bears executives, players and reporters.

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.

Every Bears coach since Lovie Smith has come in with confidence and high hopes, only to leave as a lesser version of himself. With a strong resume and QB Caleb Williams to work with, Johnson is the best chance yet to break that cycle.

Ben Johnson met the Chicago media for the first time as new Bears coach. Here's everything he said during the 30-minute session.
