Final Word: Ben Johnson is challenging the Chicago Bears. It's on them to answer
The four-game win streak was fun while it lasted. But now, it's on on the Bears to respond to their head coaches' challenge.
C.J. Gardner-Johnson comes to Chicago with a reputation for poking the bear, so to speak. The veteran defensive back says people can call it whatever they like.
The Chicago Bears are playing decently with QB Caleb Williams at the helm, but one prominent NFL analyst thinks they'll soon make a switch.
Bears look for improvement from QB Caleb Williams after signing C.J. Gardner-Johnson to help defense
Coach Ben Johnson agreed, despite the QB's mediocre numbers on Sunday and in the previous three games. Williams has a passer rating of 77.8 over that stretch with two TD passes, three interceptions and a 60.8% completion rate. The Bears failed to score 21 points for the first time this season last Sunday.
Normally, this matchup would garner lots of attention in the hockey world, but it is capable of impacting the NFL as well. A 5-2 Notre Dame team is looking to sneak into the College Football Playoff after a tough start to the season. Standing in their way is a struggling 1-7 BC Eagles squad looking to create havoc.
Bears quarterback Caleb Williams said he "could care less" about commentary about his play following Chicago's victory on "Monday Night Football."
Analysis: The Ravens' slight penalty for their false injury report against the Bears probably evens things like this out between the two franchises.
