This game is a microcosm of why Dennis Allen will not last as Head Coach!!!!

Dennis Allen’s .300 coaching record came with the 2012-13 Oakland Raiders.

Go peruse those rosters, start here: https://www.pro-football-reference.com/teams/rai/2012.htm

and name the players you’d take off of the 2012-13 Raiders teams and insert onto this one.

I’ll reiterate my position here since it seems I’m being read as Allen-apologistic: I want him to have a chance to go outside of the organization to bring in an OC of his own choosing. Not go on with the Pete Carmichael continuity nonsense because it’s clear that’s a bust move. I want him to look a guy he’s worked with for several years in the eyes, say “thank you for your time, it’s not working anymore, I need to go a different direction” then open the chute under Carmichael’s feet. Just like Sean Payton had to do with his friend Gary Gibbs. Every one of us saw how that defense wasn’t getting it done in ‘07 and ‘08, just like we see this offense not getting it done in ‘22 and ‘23. If he doesn’t do that, his high-performing defense won’t matter, just as Payton’s high-performing offenses didn’t matter when bad defensive play limited the team’s potential.
