Rewatch the Allen forced fumble play... trust me

[Bear_Assed]

This play has to go down as one of Allen's best plays of his career imo. Not only did he force the fumble on Kaperdick, but if you watch it again and keep your eyes on Allen the whole time, his first move is inside and he lays out the would-be ball carrier, then gets back up and chases down Kapernick for the tackle and of course the FF.

Oh and btw- remember when we signed him and all everyone kept saying was that he couldn't stop the run... :X:X:X

It's not that he can't stop the run its that he is not as effective......doesn't mean he can't make a play or two.....

Allen looked like shit the first game btw........I hope the second game is what we see from him going forward.

 

[Kekua Zombie]

First play I thought of.

 

[SiDe WaYs]

That's his best play ever.

that play was good but 2 plays prior Allen missed Gore on a 50 yard TD run

DUde..

He sat the whole friggin preseason. That's a month of literally no playing time. That's a lot of months off and going LIVE against an opponent. Not training camp.

He's just getting his feet wet.

J Allen was biggest offseason signing. Period.

 

[Desperado34]

Dats my guy right there.

Fuck Peppers.

The best thing about that "reach around" sack was the ESPN highlights. That game was horrible to watch. Horrible. They joked about the "reach around" and had to cut it out of later versions of Sportscenter. Awesome play though.

It's as if he's wrestling down a steer on that play.

I disagree. In the end I think Young will be our best addition. Allen has a habit of going dark for a couple of games. I like the Allen signing, but I just hope he has consistency.

As long as he fucks up less than Peppers did last season then I don't care. Young is the present and future.

The jared Allen strip of Kaepernick is not in that highlight video. Didnt find one on google either. Anyone got a link or gif of it?

we're talking about the jared allen who's played nearly 160 NFL football games, right? the guy's getting paid a LOT of money. don't make lame excuses for him. he's not as good as he used to be, because he's old. the bears paid him to much money, but he is what he is. he's still a player capable of making some impact plays, but he was bad in the first game and outside a couple plays didn't play particularly well sunday night.

houston and young are better players right now then allen. and it's not because he needs to get his feet wet. he's not magically going to start playing at a high level and cast away the inevitable erosion of skills that happens with all players as they age. he'll get some sacks, he'll make some plays, but he's the same guy he was in minnesota last season. a fading star.

Also, does Eli Manning have so little muscle definition in his dangly legs that he can't break out of Allen's death-hold grip?

I recall him breaking some similar jersey grips of Adilius Thomas and another guy in a time that mattered.

Somehow the link changed and now directs to the highlights of the game... stupid bears website. Heres the link to the NFL.com site with the correct video:

Allen basically looked like shit in the second game as well. He made a couple of plays but NOTHING like Young, and certainly not enough for what we are paying Allen.
