Ben Johnson had a testy handshake with Matt LaFleur
Johnson, 39, had a testy and brief handshake with Packers coach Matt LaFleur after his team’s win.
He then kicked off the Bears’ postgame celebrations with a declaration against the team’s NFC North rival.
“F*** the Packers!” Johnson said. “F*** them! F***ing hate those guys.”
Coach Johnson was joined by massive cheers from his Bears players.
His Bears claimed a 31-27 win against the Packers to advance to the Divisional playoffs.
They secured a crucial win despite freezing temperatures at Soldier Field.
The Bears rallied to score 25 points in the final quarter after going 21-3 behind.
Wide receiver DJ Moore, 28, caught a 25-yard pass from Caleb Williams, 24, to seal the win.
Johnson led the post-game celebrations with a curse-filled outburst in the team’s locker room.
He then went on to praise his team after an incredible comeback performance.
The Bears finished the regular season as the number-two seed in the NFC behind the Seattle Seahawks.
But they suffered back-to-back losses to the San Francisco 49ers and Detroit Lions to end their regular campaign.
Johnson has commended his team’s determination despite suffering significant setbacks.
“You go into the tournament coming off of two losses, man,” Johnson continued. “You look up at half-time and it’s 21 to three.
“No f***ing panic. Built for pressure. That’s you guys. And that’s the first one. That’s what we had to do.”
It was not all good news for the Bears as TJ Edwards, 29, has been ruled out for the season.
He suffered a fibula fracture during the Bears’ win over the Packers.
The Bears have now reached the playoffs for the first time since 2020.
They will face either the Los Angeles Rams or the Philadelphia Eagles in the Divisional playoff.
