Jared Allen Is Still Bad Ass
Did you watch last night's Bucs-Vikes game?
Allen gets into it with Tampa Bay tackle, gets his head gear ripped off and his nose bloodied. Next play he blows past the guy and sacks the QB. That's a football player. Classic motor on this guy. I understand we got Charles and Albert in the trade for him, but Day-um, what a bad ass. Watch it here: http://tinyurl.com/8lm5ocp |

He'd 'take up blockers' by being a nightmare matchup for LTs, forcing the LG to help, unlike Dorsey who takes up blockers by running into them and hoping they bother to double team him. Look, I understand the reasons for the move and am happy with the return. But don't try to trump up that trade by arguing that Allen wouldn't be a monster here. He'd be to this defense what Richard Seymour was for the Pats.

Allen was never very good in run support. And my responses in this thread aren't about a hatred for Allen. I was and am still a fan. People just need to be realistic. He was a pretty one dimensional player for us and could be shut down quite often when the game was on the line. How many sacks did he get in the 4 th quarter of a close game?

Still cant believe they lost that game at home.
I went 15-1 last week, nearly bulletproof... and yet they have the nerve to crap on my parade this week like that. |

he disappears quite often in games and IMO isn't physical enough to handle a double from a tackle and guard consistently enough to be very good in run support. He would definitely be a pass rush upgrade though. Posted via Mobile Device |

I too miss Allen getting all of his sacks when it didn't really matter.
When sacks come are probably more important than how many. Allen has always been the master at racking up sacks when shit didn't matter. I mostly remember him getting his ass totally handed to him in the NFCCG by a rookie. Dominated him in the pass and run game. Biggest game of his career and he was a total non-factor. He's always been the epitome of an anti-clutch player. Never liked him, he's overrated as hell. And he didn't have 24 sacks last year you ****ing idiot. |

He could get himself to 290 fairly easily, IMO. No, he couldn't slide into the nose like Seymour could do on occasion, but as the down to down 5-tech, he'd have been a monster.

That might work - might - if we ran a one-gap scheme. We don't. He'd be eaten alive at 290 playing two-gap.
