Bears GM Ryan Poles is wooing Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson So is Tom Brady, who owns 5% of the Raiders. Only one of them, though, will have an open microphone and a captive audience Saturday night.

After former Tennessee Titans head coach Mike Vrabel agreed to a deal to be the next coach of the New England Patriots, Johnson becomes the most sought after name of all available candidates. For Waddle, he believes there is no better answer to the Bears' coaching woes than Johnson, especially from an offensive standpoint.

With the New England Patriots officially hiring Mike Vrabel on Sunday, Detroit Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson remains the top candidate to land a head-coaching job this offseason. Over the last three years under Johnson's watch, the Lions' offense has finished in the top five in total yards and points per game.
