Title: From the WTF Files: Post by: TonyB0D on September 06, 2010, 04:03:52 pm Breaking news:
Sparano names Jason Allen as starter opposite Vontae. Title: Re: From the WTF Files: Post by: Tepop84 on September 06, 2010, 04:06:30 pm well sean smith sucks, what do you expect?
Title: Re: From the WTF Files: Post by: JVides on September 06, 2010, 04:37:20 pm I will say this: Jason Allen is physical as hell. Davis & Allen will be hell in run support...
Relax, Tepop...Smith will be fine. If he fails at corner, then I see a 6'4" safety coming right up. Title: Re: From the WTF Files: Post by: Tepop84 on September 06, 2010, 04:46:33 pm oh good, i was hoping that we would get a safety who gets burnt and never gets any turnovers.
Title: Re: From the WTF Files: Post by: Brian Fein on September 06, 2010, 07:12:07 pm I applaud this move. Jason Allen has skills. I don't know why everyone is so down on him. He's done nothing but make plays for this team.
Like Ted Ginn, its not his fault he was drafted in the first round. Title: Re: From the WTF Files: Post by: bsfins on September 07, 2010, 10:44:51 am I'm half on board with Jason Allen starting,I've never seen him afraid to stick his head in there to make a tackle (he's played mainly special teams),continuing with "We want to be a physical team". I think he's got ok ball skills (if memory serves me from a few years ago),but I question his cover skills....I can't see Sean Smith covering slot guys though....
Title: Re: From the WTF Files: Post by: Pappy13 on September 07, 2010, 10:56:53 am I don't look at this as a permanent move, it's just till Smith get's his head straight. Last year the kid was better just playing on instinct, this year he's thinking too much. Maybe a demotion is just what he needs. Besides it was only preseason, let's see what happens when the games start for real.
Title: Re: From the WTF Files: Post by: Phishfan on September 07, 2010, 11:16:08 am ^^^ This move is for when games are for real. There is no more preseason.
Title: Re: From the WTF Files: Post by: dolfan13 on September 07, 2010, 11:26:35 am well hopefully he's ready because the offense is going to throw to the guy he is covering on every pass play.
Title: Re: From the WTF Files: Post by: Pappy13 on September 07, 2010, 11:33:59 am ^^^ This move is for when games are for real. Which is based on preseason play for both players. I'm not convinced that it will stay that way for long unless Allen performs well and if he does, so be it.It's also possible that this move is based on the defense that Miami will play. Allen might be more of a press/blitz CB than Smith. We haven't seen the real defense that Miami is gonna play once the games count. Title: Re: From the WTF Files: Post by: Landshark on September 07, 2010, 01:52:35 pm The question is, has Allen's play really improved or has Smith been playing so bad that they're benching him until he gets his act together?
