I was never sold on Brandon Allen but Joe vouched to keep him a job likely. If I were the starter I would too because its job security if I'm in a position of leverage.
Many people here think that with this team reaching a SB last season means that it just magically appears again because Joe said he won't tolerate losing. I'll say it again. I love the new additions along the offensive line but the current backups played the music last season along the offensive line.  All if not most of those guys played deep into January. (2nd season)
Who got better?

Sometimes it's about the backup being able to see things from the sideline or film room and help relay that information, like having an extra QB coach in your pocket.  I'm all for getting a guy with better talent onto the PS and teaching him the system to see if he can unseat Allen, but I don't know that I am for making a change to a guy who has zero experience in the system and can't really help from the sideline.
