Sorry for the questions, just dont' follow the AFC as closely as the NFC.

Allen was traded because he hated Carl Peterson and said he would never sign a long term deal with the Chiefs. After his second DUI Peterson stated publicly that Jared Allen was a young man at risk. Which really bothered me since he had no problem signing other drunks or wife beaters.
Glen Dorsey, the fifth overall pick, has had a terrible rookie season. Tambi Hali, who looked great on the opposite side of Allen, has recorded one sack this season. Two of the other lineman are second year players, that are mediocore at best. Since the NFL has started counting sacks, the lowest sack total for an NFL team was 13 in a season. The Chiefs with two games left to play have sacked the QB 7 times in 14 games.
