Ben Johnson has every Bears player practically begging for a trick play

About halfway through the season, Chicago Bears head coach Ben Johnson has this fan base raving about his offense. It's felt oddly unsatisfactory, though, as the Bears have not been scoring touchdowns as much as they might like to.

What's been especially fun to watch, however, is Johnson's usage of trickery at times. In some games, he's avoided the trick play altogether. In other games, he's pulled them out for multiple snaps. Take last week's victory over the Cincinnati Bengals, for example. Four different Bears players threw a pass, and if recent Bears practices are any indication, it sounds like everybody wants to get in on the action.
