Bears HC Ben Johnson would give up this body part for Super Bowl win - Yahoo Sports

Published 2 weeks ago2 minute read

Chicago Bears head coach Ben Johnson has had quite the run in his first initial showings as he prepares to enter his first year with the team. The public perception of Johnson in his introductory press conference was that he passed with flying colors, and there is a different feeling around Halas Hall and the organization as a whole with Johnson leading the way.

This week at the NFL Scouting Combine, that perception of Johnson continued to grow as he prepares for his first draft as head coach. Johnson met with several media outlets all asking the first year head coach how he plans to turn around an organization desperate to get back to winning at the highest level. Having not won a Super Bowl since 1985, and not appearing in one since 2006, the Bears have been one of the biggest franchises that has disappointed year in and year out for the past decade-plus.

With all that being said, the desperation to get back and win a Super Bowl in Chicago is extremely high, so high that even the new head coach is willing to go to extreme lengths.

Appearing on the "Pardon My Take" podcast on Tuesday, Johnson was asked a hypothetical question that Caleb Williams was also asked last season: "If you could press a button that would ensure the Bears won 10 Super Bowls but one Bears fan would die, would you press that button?" Instead, Johnson suggested sacrificing a pretty substantial male body part.

"Can I just give up a body part instead?" Johnson asked hosts Big Cat and PFT Commenter before making the extreme suggestion of a specific body part. "I've got the three kids, my wife is already telling me what to do next, so I guess we can go with the testicles."

That is quite the claim that Johnson would give up for a Bears Super Bowl, or multiple. It also shows an incredibly different and hilarious personality from a head coach that has been missing in Chicago for quite amount of time. There's no doubt that the biggest diehard Bears fans would make some outlandish sacrifices if it meant bringing the Vince Lombari trophy to Chicago, where it's been missing for 40 years now.
