00:00That's from ESPN 1000 in Chicago that there's a belief. He wanted the Bears job

00:04Well, if things go south in Chicago, and he leaves this offseason for a job in the division, but any job

00:11Doesn't that put a little more pressure to win now while you have been Johnson?

00:16Sure, plus you don't want him in division and well, you can't control it after the year, you know

00:21He can leave for any job. No, I know but

00:24I'm curious because the the coaching rumors do

00:27Get around and we heard about Washington the year before it was Carolina

00:32And he removed his name from those jobs that were kind of always questioning

00:35we and we didn't hear this at the time, but you got to believe front offices do if you're Chicago and

00:41You hear Ben Johnson is interested in your job and you choose Matt ever floos over Ben Johnson. How dumb are you?

00:49Well, I mean that's I

00:51Are you kidding me?

00:53They chose to go another year with the inept knowing that they had the number one overall pick

00:59Knowing that they were going to pick and choose a quarterback that they wanted to be their franchise quarterback

01:04Why not bring in the guy that quote-unquote right now is the quarterback whisperer. He has

01:10rejuvenated

01:11Jared Goff's career

01:12He has resurrected it and now all of a sudden you have the picket of the number one in the draft and you choose Matt

01:19Ever floos, they got lulled into some late-season wins. They have the number one pick chance to start over

01:24So it doesn't mean you can't upgrade well, and I think that especially so if I'm Ben Johnson

01:28I look at that and go what is this the decision-making for this franchise seems to be a little off

01:33I would agree with you there

01:34But I think they're looking at it now going our coaching is leaving a lot to be desired

01:39Especially coming on the heels of last week's game where they have a discipline a QB spy on the hail

01:45Mary

01:45Just kind of sitting in no-man's land not to mention

01:48They had a timeout in their back pocket while their corner is not even engaged in the play and John with fans like a coach

01:53Call a to get a better play out and he Bruce also said not to do Chicago radio

01:57But he minimized the play before the hail Mary saying it was essentially irrelevant when those yards

02:01You know help propel them into a makeable hail Mary. They're questioning their coach

02:05They bring an insider on the insider says a Ben Johnson kind of wanted the Chicago job if that job opens this year

02:11And that's true Ben Johnson's gone, and you have wasted again back to that word a golden opportunity with this great football team

02:20Yes, but I'm also going to

02:23Hit the brakes on that a little bit

02:25I don't want him to waste Ben Johnson because Ben Johnson has a great relationship with Jared Goff this op this offense is operating at

02:32An extremely high level and I think Ben Johnson is maybe that he is the actual biggest component to it

02:40But let's remember you also have Dan Campbell and

02:45In his first year when he relieved Anthony Lin of his play-calling duties because he didn't like

02:52How it wasn't going the way he wanted it to it wasn't

02:57Anthony Lin wasn't following his direction

03:00So he takes over play-calling having never done it officially before

03:05Offense look better then he promotes

03:08Ben Johnson who he knows will do his bidding and

03:13And I say it sounds a you know controlling controlling, but it's collaborative

03:18He does he operates the offense as Dan Campbell sees fit so whoever comes in next is going to have to operate the offense as

03:26Dan Campbell sees fit it's Dan Campbell's offense. I will give you that but but Ben Johnson has input Ben Johnson

03:34Calling it on he's putting in a lot of the game plan and could they replace him yes

03:38Do I want to to go this guy is not falling is my point no

03:43But you're you would think your best chances with the known Ben Johnson as opposed to the unknown at the different

03:47Oh see down the line here, especially if he is interested in that Bears job again. It's a rumor

03:52We know that rumors only go so far. He took himself out of some head coaching jobs a year ago
