Ryan Poles mismanaged the Chicago Bears' roster with these two colossal mistakes

We have seen the Chicago Bears perform on many different levels this season. In Week 1, the team was lucky enough to have the defense play at an elite level while Will Levis struggled. That was an ugly win as Caleb Williams threw for less than 100 yards. In Week 2, the Bears lost to the Texans in what ended up being a fairly close game. Week 3 was the worst, though, as the team lost to the Colts in a game where coaching decisions, play calling, and personnel choices caused problems. A game they should have won. Now, the team seems to have found an identity as they won three straight.

Even while riding a three-game winning streak, not everything has been coming up roses for the Chicago Bears. Sure, the offensive line has looked better during this span, but can they be trusted to execute against better competition? Caleb Williams continues to develop and progress, but that doesn't mean the team is without holes.

Many Bears fans are split on their opinions regarding Ryan Poles. It is not like Poles has been perfect, but he has also put together a strong team on paper. Despite this, the Bears sit in last place in the NFC North. Now, to be fair, that is because the NFC North is currently the most dominant division in the NFL with a collective record of 19-6.

One cannot help but wonder if the team would be tied for first had Ryan Poles not made these two colossal mistakes with the current roster.
