Bears Fall to 0-2 Under New Coach Ben Johnson as QB Caleb Williams Has Another Uneven Performance

The Detroit Lions set a franchise record with over 500 yards and seven touchdowns, while the Bears faced multiple injuries and turnovers hindering their performance.

  • On Sunday, the Detroit Lions routed the Chicago Bears 52-21 in Detroit under new Bears coach Ben Johnson.
  • Ben Johnson, hired away from Detroit as Bears head coach to develop QB Caleb Williams, faced a challenging transition with inconsistent quarterback play.
  • Williams started strong early but faltered with turnovers, penalties, and failed fourth-down sneaks, while the Lions' defense pressured him with four sacks and forced turnovers.
  • Williams went 19-for-30 through the air, amassing 207 yards along with two touchdown passes and one interception, posting a passer rating of 91.9; however, he struggled on critical moments, including a second-quarter interception and some questionable choices.
