Chicago Bears Start Season 0-2 Under Coach Johnson After Heavy Loss

The Chicago Bears are struggling under new offensive coordinator Ben Johnson, losing 52-21 to the Detroit Lions while quarterback Caleb Williams shows inconsistency after a promising start. Despite early promise, Williams' performance declined amid turnovers and penalties, prompting Johnson to pull him late in the game. In collegiate sports, Missouri State's men's soccer team secured a commanding 4-0 win over Temple, highlighted by Fumiya Shiraishi's NCAA-leading goals per game, while the Missouri State women's soccer team narrowly defeated Central Arkansas 1-0 in a tightly contested match. Meanwhile, volleyball teams faced tough losses: Morgan State fell 3-0 to Georgetown in a closely fought Battle of the Beltway series, and California's Golden Bears were swept by Cal Poly at the Mustang Invitational despite strong individual performances. These results reflect ongoing challenges and competitive efforts across both professional football and collegiate athletics.
