Message: [QUOTE="samspann1, post: 3237828, member: 1568"] I suspect that those who tout the defense's performance don't like Allen, whether they are willing to admit the same, or not. It goes without saying that, aside from the Bills, no defense allowed 19 points in a half during WC weekend (to 16, for that matter, if you want to absolve the defense from liability for the points allowed following the Allen fumble). Fact is, we played some really horrid offensive teams/QBs this year (Haskins, Brandon Allen, Duck Hodges, Eli (sorry NYG fans), Mariota, etc.), and we won a few games in large part due to missed FGs. The defense didn't look so impressive when we faced teams with a semblance of a passing game. [/QUOTE]
