But as I posted on anther thread there's no coincidence that the defensive ranking from 31st to middle of the pack and back to 31st this year corresponds directly with the development and departure of Jared Allen. Still believe he covered up a lot of the inadequacies of Gunther Cunningham and a general lack of talent in this squad.

If you're right, the trade was even greater than you could ever imagine, because having such a terrible defensive line is one of the big reasons why we're about to have a new GM, new coach, and new top 3 draft pick.
