Ben Johnson, Chicago Bears

It’s April, but members of the Green Bay Packers are still crying about Chicago Bears head coach Ben Johnson.

Immediately after taking the head coaching job with Chicago, Johnson took a shot at Packers head coach Matt LaFleur, saying he enjoyed beating him twice a year when he was the offensive coordinator of the Detroit Lions.

The Bears beat the Packers twice last year via incredible comebacks, including in the wild-card round. Following Chicago’s playoff win over Green Bay, Johnson offered LaFleur a very quick handshake with a little attitude before going to celebrate with his team.

Johnson further upset the Bears’ hated rival by saying “(expletive) the Packers” after the game.

All sorts of Packers fans who enjoyed former Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers taunting the Bears for years came out of the woodwork in Wisconsin to cry about Johnson’s rhetoric.

During an interview with Kay Adams, new Miami Dolphins head coach Jeff Hafley made reference to the handshake when saying there was no animosity between him and LaFleur.

“I’ll shake his hand after the game, it’s not going to be one of those (things),” Hafley said.

Hafley had a reason to be upset after the loss to Chicago. Johnson exploded his defense in the fourth-quarter comeback.

But Hafley wasn’t exactly a saint when he left the Packers. He strong-armed LaFleur into taking linebackers coach Sean Duggan to Miami to become Hafley’s defense coordinator.

Hafley told LaFleur he couldn’t keep Duggan, and LaFleur had to give in.

With LaFleur being unable to fight his own battles, it’s nice he has other NFL coaches to stand up for him, even if they take advantage of him at the same time.
