Ryan Poles mismanaged the Chicago Bears’ roster with these two colossal mistakes
The Chicago Bears are off to a great start in 2024, but this team has a few areas of concern. The biggest weakness is the interior of the offensive line. Ryan Poles made two major mistakes in previous drafts that could have helped the current roster if the Bears went in a different direction.
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.
