IcePhoenix posted:Jared Allen had 11.5 sacks last year and only 1.5 (I missed the half sack game against Washington) of them came on a grass field. The Vikings play on Field Turf because they were in a dome. Eh, I call bullshit. He played 10/16 games on turf, which is gonna skew that number anyway (not to mention 8/10 of those at home, where the defense performs better in general, benefiting from confusion on the line due to crowd noise.)

Aniki posted:As for Allen specifically, I did feel like he slowed down a bit last season. There were definitely some plays where he was half a step slow that it seemed like he would have made in the past. His run defense also dropped considerably to the point where I think he should be used more as a situational player, but he doesn't like taking snaps off, though he may be more willing to accept that now. Yep, this is what I've been saying since last season. And what I said in this (and the preview!) thread. I just feel that the contract he was given is too much for a situational pass rusher, which is entirely opinion based, and if he's used as an every down guy then I think it's a bad contract because I don't think he can do it anymore. The grass thing I just threw out as a thing because I found it interesting. Chilichimp posted:Eh, I call bullshit.

The grass thing I just threw out as a thing because I found it interesting. The Market sets the prices of what players are worth. He got more than what J-Pep got and less than what Demarcus Ware got. In a Bubble sure. He probably got paid too much. But in comparison with his peers he got paid the right amount. See QB contracts for reference.

Agreed, you don't sign Peppers, Allen, or Ware without paying a few million more than they're probably worth in production. Don't like it? Draft better, rear end in a top hat.

Much like people forgetting how to drive in snow year after year, fans tend to forget that free agents get overpaid year after year. DE was a position of need for Chicago, especially after letting Peppers go, so they signed the best one available...get over it.
