Allen was actually pretty good in coverage this past season from what I seen and by all reports.  Which games are you referring to where he "wasnt very good"?


I think the issue is more that he wasn't asked to go out in pass coverage often since he's usually blitzing on passing downs. From the games of his I've watched, he did fine every time he did cover someone, however, if he wasn't blitzing it was more often a run play. Now Allen is very good in run support because he elongates his body side-to-side very quickly and he's a sure tackler.
