Ben Johnson's priority upon joining the Bears will be leveraging his expertise to elevate Caleb Williams’ performance. Last season, Williams struggled with play action—ranking 29th among quarterbacks in that category—but Johnson's previous work with Jared Goff in Detroit demonstrated his capability to optimize quarterback efficiency through effective offensive scheming.
In Detroit, Johnson’s play action-heavy approach not only minimized Goff's exposure to pressure but also improved his overall performance significantly. In contrast, Williams had a rough go of avoiding sacks and inaccuracies, presenting Johnson with a challenge to calibrate the young quarterback's development while address the weaknesses observed in his inaugural season.
