In defense of Allen (gulp)

Ah, the tired old trope that the Raiders were a dumpster fire. What a worn out lazy thing to say, so lets look at the dumpster fire.

He was given a 3rd season, and started 0-4.

The last thing we want to talk about is facts though. Yes, DA was 8-28 with the dumpster fire. The 2 years before DA took over? the Raiders were 16-16. The 2 years after he left? 19-13.

2 years before DA - .500
2+ years with DA - .222
2 years after DA - .594

So both before and after he left, the Raiders were a .500+ organization. But just the Allen era they were a "total dumpster fire"
Maybe they should have given him more time to turn it around. In any case your take is weak and reactionary.
