I liked Allen he was a nice guy, he was good defensive coach, infact some credit him with innovating the modern day defenses, as Greg Williams put it everyone is running some form of George Allens defense. But he missed the boat on personel, he traded away our future for what became known as the over the hill gang, when they didn't win it all it was all downhill, guy's to old to play and no draft picks to rebuild it was an ugly time after his first few years, all you heard constantly was that we had no draft picks for years to come. We were better than average but you alway's knew we couldn't beat the best teams out there, allthough we did compete, in the end it was the same old story we would lose. He gave it his best shot and was a heck of a likable guy, but in the end his philosophy failed.
