The Lions enjoyed some great offensive performances and one of the best seasons in franchise history under him.Can Ben Johnson lead the Bears to a victory over his former team?Ben Johnson doesn't seem to have a response for the Lions' offense in the second game of the season. His side is trailing 45-21 to Jared Goff & Co. with less than 12 minutes on the clock.The high-scoring encounter saw the Lions score two touchdowns and stop the Bears to one in the first quarter. Goff's team dropped 14 points in the second quarter to make the scoreline 28-14.Detroit scored a touchdown and a field goal in the third quarter and started the fourth quarter with a touchdown to crush Ben Johnson's hope for a comeback. While the Bears have scored another touchdown to make it 45-21, it is likely to be a 0-2 star for them in the 2025 NFL season.
