So is Dennis Allen doing well with sub-par talent,
Or is this defense talented but he's just not getting it done?

This defense isn't good, but most of our top guys missed significant playing time.

For Dennis Allen to coach a bunch of street free agents to a defense ranked in the mid 20's is outstanding to me.

Imagine what he could do with some talent.

Please, please tell me what other team(s) are knocking down the door for Vitt, Johnson or Allen? Can't can you? Tell me they have produced enough to warrant being here? Tell me they are top notch at their positions? Their D's have never been good, that's how they roll.

This ^^^^^^^^^.

I also think Allen has done well in spite of all the unfortunate injuries in 2016.
