I know you've watched this team for as long or longer than me, and my memory goes back for about 3.5 decades.

It can always get worse...and my memory is getting worse the older I get, too.

The Broncos defense were in the bottom half of yards allowed, ranked 23rd, but were 5th in the league in sacks in 2011

As coach:

Texas A&M (GA) (1996–1999)
Tulsa (secondary) (2000–2001)
Atlanta Falcons (defensive QC) (2002–2003)
Atlanta Falcons (defensive asst.) (2004–2005)
New Orleans Saints (asst. DL) (2006–2007)
New Orleans Saints (secondary) (2008–2010)
Denver Broncos (DC) (2011)
Oakland Raiders (2012–2014)
New Orleans Saints (Defensive Coordinator) (2015–present)

The first Dennis Allen thread?

How were his defenses in Atlanta, Denver?

Not so hot, it appears.

Be interesting to see if he has the respect of the players or will they not buy in to what he's gonna try to accomplish

We have plenty of 4-3 guys. We have more 4-3 talent than 3-4.

Absolutely correct. We actually have quite few pieces suitable for a 3-4. We are missing a true two-gap NT, 3-4 Ends and I think Kikaha for one is more suited to play in a 4-3.

Kikaha; Anthony; Dunbar; Humber; Mauti are all better suited to be in a 4-3 defense...
