"Almost any Offensive Coordinator in the league could put up big numbers with the talent the lions have on offense" - Colin Cowherd

[iceberg_is_on_fire]

He’s acting like they are the greatest show on turf

This is, statistically speaking, the 11th highest scoring team in history. I'm not that high on Ben Johnson as a lions fan. He's been given gourmet ingredients to make pizza. It's not that hard to make pizza. Anyone can do this with this team basically.

that’s just not true though

Bears have hella weapons too, look at them

 

[King Poetic]

Who knows

give him a chance and see what he can do for a year two

Stop reheating the same mike mccartheys over and over

But aaron glenn who was a great DB and was a leader on teams while playing and was doing good once he transition into the coaching side definitely need a job, especially the way his defense has played not only with less players on the field but how the game is more offensive friendly

Nah, I disagree. Although he makes some calls at times I'm not a fan of, as we all have seen, I think he's still a damn good coordinator. Yes there's talent, but scheming players open and having counters to these defensive strategies ain't equal to throwing shyt on a pizza. My daughter been putting her own ingredients on her pizza since she was 5, I don't trust her find ways to get St Brown open on every big 3rd down.

Having a top 10-15 offense all time is not some regular shyt, as there have been plenty of teams throughout history that have had loaded offensive personnel. He comes up with some elite plays, as we've seen time and time again, and I don't think that's something that can easily be dismissed as anybody can do it.

Breh, having the best O-Line in the league is the main weapon the Lions have. The Bears don't got that

Yeah this is so fukking idiotic coaching matters in football more than any other sport this is the same Colin that use to shyt on Jared Goff all the time

Defintiely, but Johnson won't have 3 receivers running to the same spot like we had, that alone will be an improvement.

Ok that’s true but what about the Bengals

They got bad o line wit weapons and offense was great

Coaching matters but folks is acting like Ben Johnson is Andy Reid or some shyt with the hype. His point is fair, as much as you may want to attack the messenger.

How do you know he isn't the next Andy Reid,sean Mcvay or Kyle Shanahan going by this logic you wouldn't hired Andy Reid from the packers when he went to the eagles or kevin o'connell when he was with the rams of course some good OCs flame out as head coach in the NFL but Ben Johnson deserves credit for developing this offense and turning Jared Goff career around

 

[duckbutta]

I mean Kellen Moore was doing similar things in Dallas, then he went to the Chargers and shyt got different when the personnel changed

Bears don't have the weapons Cincy or Detroit have either.

Ben's earned his accolades. It takes more than just talent to consistently have a top 5 offense. Scheme plays a heavy factor. And you add to the fact that the league has seen this team have an effective play for damn near any scenario, regardless of down and distance. Plus you can't talk about it just being talent when the last 2-4 years all the talking heads have been ready to keep Goff in the trash heap. At some point you have to give these guys credit. And with all that being said, none of this guarantees that Ben will be a good head coach, because leadership matters and as a head coach it's the most important factor.

I like you Lions fans but ya'll slam Ben all the time lol. Even in wins! The Lions are mostly Dan and Brad, if not all Dan.

I would argue the Bears have two number ones. (Keenan and DJ) and a great future number one in Rome. The run game is booty but that's 75 percent the fault of the O Line which has been bad since Ditka was frankly.
