Allen would do well to maybe play constant nickel and put KV up in the box on every play to cover the short passing game.


Remember how much he liked doing this with Malcolm Jenkins after he took him from a great rookie corner and jammed him into free safety and then failed to develop him?

1st I'd question who are Rappoports sources, he's been throwing shite against a wall hoping it sticks in regards to the Saints all year long

2nd I question the logistics of this idea....Rob Ryan calls the plays and correct me if I'm wrong but there is only ONE coach allowed to talk to the player receiving the play calls on the headset....So are we really supposed to believe that Rob Ryan calls in the personnel package and formation, and just leave the coverage open to whatever Dennis Allen calls out when he & Rob aren't even communicating with each other between every play?.....That really does not seem likely, and if that is the case, then no wonder our defense sucks if you have one guy calling personnel/formation/alignment and then another calling coverage.....That's like me buying ingredients for supper, then just dropping them on the table for my wife to cook without having spoken to her telling her what I want, it may work sometimes but not exactly the most efficient way to get the exact meal either of us want

You can say Rob sucks all you want (maybe he does) but that is a very telling revelation about Dennis Allen. Bill Johnson should have been shite-canned years ago.
The entire defensive staff needs to be fired. For once, a new DC should be allowed to put together his own staff rather than have Payton dictate that his friends must retain their jobs despite their incompetence.
