“Early in the process we sat down and watched some tape from a year ago and we talked it through,” Johnson said. “It’s like, ‘Do we really want to? Is this what we want to look like or not?’ We come to an agreement, ‘No, it’s not, OK, we learn from it, we move on to the next thing.’ Body language is a huge thing. Demeanor. We don’t want to be a palms-up team where we’re questioning everything. No, no, no — to me that’s a little bit of a sign of weakness. We don’t want to exhibit that from anybody on the team.” - Ben Johnson on Caleb

Very interesting. Johnson trying to bring culture into Chicago. Caleb fell all over himself backtracking on the 'wanting to come to Minnesota' narrative from the book yesterday.

If only body language were his only problem. Dude has serious accuracy issues. I think Ben Johnson is going to be a mess on the sideline going from watching Jared Goff to Caleb Williams.


I'm not sold on Caleb either. But extremely interested to watch it play out. I think Johnson is going to be pulling clumps of his own hair out at various times this year.
