Hold onto your helmets because the NFL coaching carousel is about to hit top speed. And right now, the Detroit Lions are absolutely dominating with a 15-2 record. They have reached the summit of the NFC North. Bow down to their coaching staff, creating quite the buzz in the market. Especially Ben Johnson, the Lions‘ offensive coordinator who’s been turning defenses into Swiss cheese all season long. Now, teams are lining up to snatch him up for their head coach gig, and the New York Jets are the first in line.

According to National Reporter, Albert Breer’s recent Twitter post, Ben Johnson is planning to take interviews with the Chicago Bears and New England Patriots. Yep, you heard that right! These teams are officially in the run to chat with the guy pulling the strings behind one of the NFL’s top offenses. Johnson’s not just handing out interviews like free samples at Costco, he’s serious about finding the right fit.

Why Johnson, you ask? Well, imagine you’ve got a rusty old car barely running. Now Johnson’s the mechanic who can make that thing purr like a brand-new sports car. The Jets have been struggling to execute decent offense for years, and Johnson’s track record of flipping a team’s offensive playbook into pure gold is exactly what they need. The Jets are hoping he’s the key to fixing that problem, and honestly, who can blame them? The guy’s a wizard.

It’s not just Johnson the Jets are after. There’s another Lion on the radar, and it’s none other than Aaron Glenn, Detroit’s defensive coordinator. Glenn’s got a reputation for building tough, opportunistic defenses, and the Jets need that edge. Now, with both of Detroit’s top coaches getting attention, the Lions have a bit of a dilemma. Their playoff dreams are alive and well. The real question is whether they can hold onto these guys long enough to finish the job. Only time will tell.

Who else is going head-to-head with Ben Johnson for the job?

Just when this race couldn’t get any more interesting, the Jets are also squeezing in a visit with the Chiefs‘ offensive coordinator Matt Nagy. Bill Johnson might be grabbing all the headlines, but Nagy’s experience could make him a very dangerous opponent. I mean, he literally was a part of Andy Reid‘s high-powered offense for years. If the Jets want stability, he’s got the resume to back it up. Coming from a winning system, the Jets might want to go the route of a proven coach and if so, Nagy could very well be the ace in the hole they need.

So, the coaching carousel is spinning faster and faster, and one thing is certain, the Jets are not playing around. The focus is on Ben Johnson and the Jets, whose rumored desire for a super staff sets the stage for little musical chairs. No matter the result, this is one battle of coaches that will have us all on the edge, and it could very well reshape the NFL landscape, with the Jets potentially setting a new standard for how to build a championship team.
