Ben Johnson | Mic’d Up | Chicago Bears

(After earning back to back road wins
for the first time since 2020,) (Bears back home
looking to extend their winning streak) (to four for the first time
since late 2018.) My pleasure. Hey there. Yeah. Anything else you need from us today? I think we’re in good shape.
Okay. Yeah. If you need something, you let me know. Other than that, ypu and I are gonna be talking all day. Can’t wait.
Alright then. (laughing) Good to see you. It’s a, just what we thought in terms of weather. It’s blowing, better, away from our tunnel. So if we were deciding, we want to kick off here. Yes.
First quarter and third quarter? Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Let’s go, T.J. Let’s go go to work. Maine! Let’s go, Sweat.
Yessir! Coach! Let’s go!
Yeah. All right Ozz! Have a day, buddy. Love you, big dog.
Love you more. Let’s do it. Let’s go. Let’s go, buddy. Have a little fun now!
Yep! So you let ‘em know when you’re watching? (laughing) I’m always watching.
I know you are! Kellen. Good to see you, buddy.
Yea man, let’s do it. Yeah.
I’ll catch ya. D.A. you got me? Perfect. We want to kick towards our tunnel. Right?
Yes, sir.
Yep. We want to kick to our tunnel. Ok.
Kick to our tunnel.
I got ya. It’s really not bad, Harry. (And what is going to be an interesting
weather day here at Soldier Field.) (Winds, quiet now.) (Rain fell for much of the morning.
Seems to be dissipating.) (This will no doubt impact the game,
some form or fashion.) Okay, I want this one here. It’s a good one here, alright? On one. On one. Hey, we’re gonna go George McCaskey here.
George McCaskey. Give me 12. 12. 12. Give me 11. I want to go on one, on one. Do this one for me. Delay, delay! (Snap is back, Rattler.) (Brisker is coming on
the blitz! Hits him in the chest!) (Gobbles him up! Down he goes!) Good job, D. Good job, D! Good job, D!! Hey, stay focused now. Stay focused. Stay focused! Hey, Caleb. Clean communication, okay. Steady Eddie in the huddle here. Make sure they know what they’re doing. Make sure we’re good with the cadence,
okay? I need faster with the personnel. Take the quarter. We’re good right where we’re at,
first and ten at the 30. Gimme 4 in the game. (Odunze out to the right, snap. Caleb
giving to Swift.) (Found a cutback. Gallops inside the five!) (Busting into the end zone!) (Touchdown!) (Touchdown, Bears!) (That-a-boy, Ben Johnson!) (Aggressive!) (Run the football right there!) (At the line of scrimmage,) (in threatening position, back to throw.
The stunt picked up.) Bam! (Rattler to Kamara.) (Rudely smacked down to the ground at the 24 yard line.) Good job. Good job. Good job! Good job, buddy. Hey huddle up. Huddle up huddle up. (Motion right is Loveland.) (Give to Monangai!) (Slanting in, for the touchdown!) (Touchdown, Bears!) (And the first career rushing touchdown for Kyle Monangai!) I want the ball back. If we get the ball back, we’re going. Just so you know. Here we go, buddy. Terry, you hear me? Be ready for a timeout. They’re in two down
territory here, D.A. (Here is a fake
and a step up and run for Rattler.) (Now he’s directing traffic,
looking for the deep ball. Hit by Brisker!) (He’s got an open man
and it’s intercepted!) (Is it in bounds?) (Byard! And it is! Bears have intercepted him!) (Kevin Byard III on the takeaway!) (Throwing over the middle, caught by Hill.
Then he flings it right to Kamara!) (40, 45 to midfield and a first down!) There’s a flag down, bro. (Penalty marker, though, on the far side.) (There is no foul for an illegal forward pass.) You want me to do it, Harry? (Ben Johnson throws the red hankie.) Forward lateral. Yep, it was forward. Yep. It’s a forward pass. (Big, red flag by Ben Johnson.) Bleed it, field goal. (Takes the snap.
Gonna to roll to the right.) (Kamara got bumped in coverage, tipped up in the air) (Intercepted!
Tremaine Edmunds on the tip by Edwards!) (Bears take it away for a fourth time today!) Good job, D.A. Here we go! 12, 12. 12, 12. We’re rolling. Good, good, good. Hang with me here. If don’t see you again, have a good retirement. Hey, hey! give me time out! Time out! We’re going to take the two minute and we’re going for it. So once again, fourth down, let’s get this thing. All right? Either through the air or with your legs. It’s first down. Get down,
and then we’ll victory from there. Alright? (On this fourth and three, motions
Odunze left.) (with Monangai next to him, back to throw) (and that, effectively, will take care of business.) 12, 12. Victory! Victory! Victory! Bleed it as much as you can. (The Bears win by 12! They’re 4-2!) (Headed to Baltimore!
They extend their winning streak) (to four consecutive games.) Buddy. Best of luck the rest of the way.
You too, man. Yeah.
Alright, see ya. (And that is
a fade to black moment at Soldier Field!)

Chicago Bears head coach Ben Johnson, mic’d up during the game against the New Orleans Saints, showed a calm but commanding presence on the sideline – focused on discipline, effort and execution. His leadership blended composure with urgency, holding players to a high standard even in a winning effort.
