00:00The Chicago Bears are making serious moves, and they're not playing around.
00:04This offseason, they've been aggressive.
00:07Not just in free agency and the draft, but in reshaping their coaching staff.
00:12And now, they've added two key offensive assistants to help lead this new-look team into the future.
00:18These aren't just minor hires.
00:20They're calculated moves that could play a major role in the Bears' success.
00:25If you've been following this team for years, you know how crucial it is to get the right coaching staff in place,
00:30and these additions could set the tone for the next era of Bears football.
00:35Bears fans, we know the past few seasons have been rough.
00:39The talent has been there, but the coaching, not so much.
00:43And it's not just about the head coach.
00:45It's about the entire staff, from assistants to position coaches.
00:49With Matt Eberfloos out and Ben Johnson in as the new head coach, everything is about to change.
00:55And trust me, these hires aren't just filling spots.
00:58They show the Bears are serious about developing this offense the right way.
01:04The franchise has made mistakes in the past, with coaching hires often failing to bring in innovative minds.
01:09This time, they're focusing on modern football strategies, player development, and maximizing potential.
01:15Let's start with Kyle Devan.
01:16If you follow college football, you might recognize the name.
01:19Devan was most recently the offensive line coach at Oregon State,
01:23where he helped build one of the most consistent O-lines in the country.
01:26His work helped Oregon State become one of the top-rushing teams in the Pac-12,
01:31and his ability to develop linemen into NFL-ready players is well-documented.
01:36But this guy isn't just a college coach.
01:39He's got NFL experience.
01:41He played for the Indianapolis Colts, Philadelphia Eagles, and Tennessee Titans.
01:46He even had a coaching stint with the New Orleans Saints.
01:49That means he understands both the players' perspective and the coaches' perspective,
01:56which is a crucial element in guiding young players.
02:00Why does this matter?
02:01Because the Bears' offensive line has been a disaster.
02:04Last season, Chicago gave up a league-high 68 sacks.
02:10That's unacceptable.
02:11You can have Caleb Williams, DJ Moore, and a loaded offense,
02:15but if you can't protect the quarterback, it won't matter.
02:18Devan is stepping in to assist Dan Rushar with fixing this mess,
02:22and given his track record, he's exactly the kind of guy you want in the building.
02:26He understands blocking schemes, pass protection,
02:29and the importance of having a unit that plays as one.
02:32Plus, he played under Peyton Manning in Indianapolis,
02:35meaning he knows what it takes to keep a star quarterback upright.
02:39His ability to translate those experiences into effective coaching techniques
02:44will be critical in developing Chicago's young linemen.
02:48But let's not just talk about last season's struggles.
02:50The Bears' O-run problems have been ongoing for years.
02:54Ever since the days of Jay Cutler,
02:55the franchise has struggled to build a cohesive and dominant offensive line.
02:59Chicago has drafted linemen, signed free agents,
03:02and experimented with different schemes, but nothing has truly worked.
03:06That's why Devan's presence is so important.
03:09He brings a fresh approach and a deep understanding
03:11of how to mold an offensive line into a dominant force.
03:14If he can help establish a consistent, disciplined unit,
03:17this offense has the potential to be dangerous.
03:20Now let's talk about the second hire, Matt Aponte.
03:24If you don't know his name, you will soon.
03:26At just 28 years old, Aponte was the offensive coordinator
03:30and quarterbacks coach at the University of San Diego,
03:33making him the youngest offensive coordinator in Division I football.
03:37And he wasn't just a name on a list.
03:40He was making waves.
03:42In fact, he was named to Coaching Network's 30 Under 30 list,
03:45a sign that people inside the game see him as a rising star.
03:50The Bears clearly see his potential,
03:52and they're giving him a shot at the pro level.
03:55This is a big leap for him, but considering his success at USD,
03:58it's not surprising that an NFL team is taking a chance on him.
04:03So what does Aponte bring to the Bears?
04:05He's got a reputation for being an excellent developer of quarterbacks,
04:09and if there's one thing Chicago desperately needs,
04:11it's someone who can unlock Caleb Williams' full potential.
04:14Williams is a generational talent, but he's still young,
04:17and the NFL is a different beast.
04:19Having a guy like Aponte in the room,
04:21someone who specializes in working with QBs
04:24and tailoring offenses to their strengths,
04:26could be a huge difference maker.
04:28The Bears have struggled for decades to develop a franchise quarterback.
04:31If Aponte can be the guy who helps turn Williams into an elite passer,
04:35this hire will be one of the most important in team history.
04:39Beyond just developing Williams,
04:41Aponte's influence could reshape how the Bears approach offensive strategy.
04:45He's known for his creativity in play design
04:47and his ability to maximize the skill sets of his players.
04:51In San Diego, his offenses were efficient, dynamic, and well coached.
04:55He understands how to scheme receivers open,
04:57create mismatches, and put quarterbacks in a position to succeed.
05:01If he can bring even a fraction of that innovation to Chicago,
05:04it could be a game changer for this team.
05:08It's clear what Ben Johnson is doing.
05:10He's surrounding himself with smart, young, hungry coaches who can develop talent.
05:14This is the blueprint that teams like the San Francisco 49ers
05:17and Philadelphia Eagles have used to find success.
05:20Load up on promising coaching talent,
05:22build an innovative system, and let the players thrive.
05:26The Bears have tried the old-school, hard-nosed approach before.
05:29Now, they're trying something different.
05:31And when you consider that Chicago has been stuck in an offensive rut for years,
05:36change is exactly what they need.
05:39But let's be real.
05:41Hiring good assistants doesn't mean instant success.
05:44The offensive line still needs to improve.
05:47The defense still needs to generate more pressure.
05:50Montez Sweat only had 5.5 sacks last year.
05:54That's not going to cut it.
05:55If the Bears want to be competitive in 2025,
05:59they need more than just good coaches.
06:01They need execution, discipline, and results.
06:05This was actually a disappointing performance for Deep,
06:08and a lot of excitement and hype for the coaching system to grow.
06:13The foundation is being laid, but now it's time for the players to step up.
06:16The good news?
06:18This is a young team with a lot of talent.
06:20DJ Moore is a legitimate No. 1 wide receiver.
06:23Romo Duns showed flashes of greatness last season.
06:27The running back room is solid.
06:28And if the offensive line improves,
06:30the Bears could have one of the most explosive offenses in the NFC.
06:35The weapons are there.
06:36Now, it's about putting it all together.
06:38And that's why these coaching hires matter.
06:40They're the missing pieces to a bigger puzzle.
06:43For years, the Bears have been searching for the right formula.
06:46We've seen regime after regime come and go,
06:49but something about this group feels different.
06:52Ben Johnson is a rising star in the coaching world,
06:55and now he's surrounding himself with the best young minds in football.
06:58If it all clicks, the Bears could finally build something sustainable,
07:03something that lasts.
