New Orleans Saints fans had to hear all offseason about how Dennis Allen, their former head coach and defensive coordinator, was going to help turn the Chicago Bears defense around in 2025. It got old fast, to say the least.
Well, people might not be so high on Allen after his Bears defense got absolutely smoked by the Detroit Lions in Week 2, surrendering over 500 yards of total offense and 52 points. This was to a Lions offense that, by the way, looked inept in the first game of the season.
Allen was the Saints defensive coordinator from 2015 to 2021 and did a nice job in the role.
