The Chicago Bears are 6-3 with first-year head coach Ben Johnson after securing a 24-20 comeback win over the New York Giants in Week 10.

The win was the second in a row for the Bears. While wins over the Cincinnati Bengals and Giants have Chicago as the No. 7 seed in the NFC (as of this publishing ), the team has a tough schedule upcoming in the month, including contests against the Pittsburgh Steelers, Philadelphia Eagles, and Green Bay Packers.

Johnson’s former team, the Detroit Lions, are not feeling good about their prospects in Week 10. The NFC’s No. 1 seed last season has lost two of its last three contests before playing the Washington Commanders on Sunday.

The Detroit Lions are in full meltdown mode

Per Mike Garofolo of the NFL Network, Lions players and coaches are in full meltdown mode with new offensive coordinator John Morton. Detroit head coach Dan Campbell is calling plays.

“HC Dan Campbell has a play sheet and is doing the talking into the headset in between plays,” Garafolo posted on X. “Lots of indications of a disconnect between OC John Morton and the players and coaches. Campbell appears to have taken over offensive play calling, which he indicated was possible.”

Miss Ben Johnson yet?

The Lions offense looked okay in Week 2 when they thumped the Bears 52-21 at Ford Field.

However, Detroit is trending downward in November, and the players dearly miss Johnson calling plays. They appear broken with Morton.

Chicago’s next game against the Lions could have playoff implications. The Bears will host Detroit on Jan. 4.

The Bears should have an advantage with a play caller who’s getting his guys to buy into his program.
