For me, it had something to do w/ Allen's philosophy. When we hired him, and I did research on his time w/ Raiders... I noted that he preferred veteran teams. Most of his starters were guys w/ skins on the wall. When the defense was young (2017-2021), it challenged him more, and we built some good defenses, but after a while he went back into his natural habitat and seemed reticent about having young guys at certain positions.
