Your analysis was just on the second half of the chargers game and you saw that he was beaten twice on run blocking snaps. That's two bad plays out of 12 snaps in half a game. There's 7 and a half more games to analyze if you want to accurately detail his entire season production thus far.
You said Allen had, "2 bad plays and 1 mental error for the entire season. How the hell does Allen suck?"
Touche! The season hasn't completed yet.
And you just reminded me of an error I wrote here. I forgot to say I haven't watched any of the games we lost. Losing is painful for me. So I haven't watched the replay against the Chiefs(27 snaps) or Panthers(9 snaps).
I have watched ever other game, I just did not write down notes of Allen because his blocking was solid aside from that mental error he made where he went for the wrong gap or something. Can't remember the game. I only started documenting each of his snaps because of the hate on Allen.
Do I think Allen needs to improve as a receiver? Yeah, probably considering he hasn't had any catches. The knock on Allen according to Clots fans is he can't catch the ball. And we saw this in training camp BB getting on him about it. But his run blocking is really solid. So it's not like he sucks, we just need to give him time and hope he improves, and if he doesn't, find someone better in the off season or ask him to take a paycut. But we need to give him a chance. There are not many good blocking tight ends in this league who has the potential to go out and catch a ball.
