North Carolina Football Faces Quarterback Uncertainty with Max Johnson Stepping Up

The Chicago Bears offense, led by head coach Ben Johnson, showed significant improvement in Week 3 with efficient ball movement and minimized mistakes, though their running game still struggles. Johnson attributes the run game issues to team chemistry and execution rather than personnel, emphasizing that it takes time for new players to gel and understand the system. Meanwhile, North Carolina football faces quarterback uncertainty due to Gio Lopez's injury, with backup Max Johnson stepping in effectively during two games, showing readiness and poise. Despite Lopez's flashes of strong play, his recent performances have lacked consistency, and his injury has led to calls for Max Johnson to start moving forward. UNC's offense overall has struggled this season, prompting discussions about a quarterback change to improve results under new head coach Bill Belichick. Johnson’s preparedness and impact in relief suggest he could be a better fit to lead the Tar Heels' offense as they seek to turn around their poor start.
