I've haven't seen enough of Allen's play to make an educated speculation on whether he's capable of carrying the team. I don't think anyone has. I agree with NYC, let him run with the 1s next week for a few drives and see how he handles it. Bortles is incorrigible at this point. Like Henne, consistency is a glaring issue. Yes, both are capable of playing well, but for how long is the question because each will sharply regress at any given moment and take the team with them. Both are proven to be untrustworthy and should no longer be even considered as a future component of a starting team. 
If Allen proves to be incapable, then the FO needs to start looking in earnest for someone serviceable to play the season. It's time for the fans to realize that our recovery ain't happening this season. As it stands now, we do not have a QB...nor a kicker. Our two biggest points making positions remain unfilled with two games to go before the season begins. While it's not quite time to panic, we are faced with a dire situation.
