Bears HC Ben Johnson explains why 'Good, Better, Best' chant returned

Chicago Bears head coach Ben Johnson explained why his "Good, Better, Best" victory chant returned in the 2026 season.

Chicago Bears head coach Ben Johnson revived the popular "Good, Better, Best" chant that dominated the league last season. Johnson's victory chant reverberated across the NFL and locker room after every win, but he was unsure if he would continue it in the 2026 season. However, after the team's win over the Carolina Panthers last Sunday, social media buzzed when Johnson reintroduced the chant.

Johnson explained that the chant's return was driven by its powerful message and the enjoyment it brings to the team. Johnson revealed that introducing this chant was his vision when he took the helm a year and a half ago, and it remains a great rallying cry for the team. The Bears' fans and players have embraced the chant as a reason to look forward to victories, and it continues to maintain its impact as long as the team keeps winning.
