The "Get Up" crew discusses the relationship between the coaches leading up to the highly anticipated Bears vs. Rams NFC divisional round matchup.
Sean McVay has game-planned against Ben Johnson before, when Johnson was the Lions’ offensive coordinator. But Sunday’s matchup between the Rams and Bears will be the first contest between the two as head coaches. Asked what stands out about Johnson as a play-caller during his Monday news conference, McVay said he thinks Johnson does a great job.
A lot has been made about how Johnson in particular has changed the NFL. He was the driving force of the Lions rise to prominence, and McVay articulated what he sees from the first year coach — as well as why he’s anticipating this game so much. McVay and Johnson are fundamentally different coaches with different philosophies of offense.
