Detroit has given up the 4th most sacks in the NFL this year. Know how many sacks Allen had against them in two games? One.
Pittsburgh and Seattle are in the top 10 of sacks allowed. Know how many sacks Allen got against both of those teams combined? Zero.
Cleveland and St. Louis are just outside the top 10. Allen was shut out against them too.
Its obvious that no one has paid attention to this. People can laugh it away all they want, but the numbers dont lie.

How often does the top two games of production of a good DE come against the same team? And how often are the rest of his games as average as Allens have been?

The point of my post was not that Hali is doing well. Its how disturbingly close to his sack numbers Allen would be without the Packers games padding his stats. But Hali only had 1.5 sacks against the Raiders and Redskins combined. His others were against NYG and Baltimore.
Incidentally, though, Hali has 26 QB pressures on the season. Allen has 19.
