NFL Fantasy Football Podcast on Ben Johnson

From the episode

Ben Johnson, in terms of his success rate in the pass game as a play caller, on plays with motion is way lower against Flores than anybody else. Because a lot of the times when you're using motion, right, it's a formation indicator or rather a defensive structure indicator.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalMatchup

Johnson's motion-play success rate drops sharply against Flores' zone scheme.

Johnson's pass-play success rate as the Bears' play caller is significantly lower on plays with motion against Brian Flores' Vikings defense compared to any other opponent; motion often serves as a formation indicator (man vs. zone), but the Vikings play zone regardless, negating the deception value.
