Tom Brady is pushing for the Raiders to pursue Detroit Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson to fill their head coaching vacancy

Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson has been the most coveted head-coaching candidate in the NFL the last three Januarys, and the Bears interviewed him Saturday morning via videoconference.

The Chicago Bears have interviewed Detroit Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson for their head coaching position, the team said on social media Saturday. The Lions earned the No. 1 seed in the NFC playoffs this season after leading the league in points per game and finishing second in yards passing and total yards per game.

After losing the first regular-season game in league history pitting teams with a combined 28 victories, the Vikings (14-3) hit the road for wild-card weekend, visiting the NFC West champion Los Angeles Rams (10-7) on Monday night as the most accomplished fifth seed in NFL history.

The NFL playoffs are upon us, which means Super Bowl LIX is just a few weeks away. Fourteen teams remain alive after they battled for months to make the playoffs and are set to embark on a month-long sprint to try and earn a berth in New Orleans and hoist the Lombardi Trophy.
