Ben Johnson "not pleased" with Bears' offensive performance in Week 18

Story byJosh AlperMon, January 5, 2026 at 11:43 AM UTC·1 min readThe Bears offense put up 440 yards and 38 points before falling short in a Week 17 loss to the 49ers, but the unit couldn't find the same groove against the Lions in Week 18. They were held scoreless while gaining 107 yards and six first downs through most of the first three quarters of the game. That left them behind 16-0 when they finally did some good things on that side of the ball. Two touchdowns and two two-point conversions made it a tie game, but the Bears couldn't do anything after a late interception by safety Kevin Byard and they wound up losing 19-16 as a result.
