Ben Johnson says Chicago will be the coldest place the Rams have played this year

Our Summary

The weather forecast for the Rams-Bears game on Sunday night predicts snow and temperatures around 20 degrees, a situation that Bears coach Ben Johnson finds favorable. Johnson acknowledged that this will be the coldest game the Rams have experienced this year, noting that while Matthew Stafford has previously performed well in cold conditions, the weather could still impact the Rams' passing game. Johnson, with prior experience as the Lions' offensive coordinator, emphasized the importance of acclimating players to cold weather by practicing outdoors, a strategy he doubts the Rams can easily replicate. The Bears are hoping the cold Chicago weather will be a disadvantage for their Southern California opponents.
