Nah - people compete for a variety of reasons. Allen competes because he loves the attention not the money. I don't think I've ever heard anybody question his motor before. He's not athletically superior in NFL terms, he's relentless and comes every down - which is why he's found success in the league and was overlooked in the draft - IMO.

Every down except for those pesky fourth quarter ones, it appears.

I know that his results fell off later in games but I still never doubted his effort. When you figure that a quality DE is going to get 10-14 sacks in a 16 game season, you can't whine too much when they all come in the early stages of games.

I don't know why anyone would not want Dorsey and JA on the same Chiefs squad. Sure would help that youthful secondary.

WHo was he traded for basically?? Albert, Charles and Dejaun Morgan?? Obviously it will take a few years to see what the full impact will be.

Everything ive read before said that he as had character issues since high school. Thats why he ended up in a small college and then got overlooked in the draft.

Opposing teams would do well by double-teaming Allen or having the QB bootleg away from him on most occasions in the 1st half. JA simply loses his legs/burst and the OT has his moves figured out in the 2nd half.

He was on his contract year last year. Lots of players play better then, I do not expect him to be as good as last year.
