It’s fair to question the strength of Dennis Allen’s job security. The New Orleans Saints head coach has come out of Week 7 with a 2-5 record for the second time in three years; last year at this time he had them at 3-4. After getting beaten badly by his former boss Sean Payton (whose Denver Broncos enjoyed a 33-10 rout on Thursday night), it’s valid to question Allen’s status.

That’s what Richard Sherman did on the Amazon Prime said at halftime, suggesting the poor effort he was seeing from good players on the New Orleans defense would lead to Allen getting dismissed from his post. The Saints had been outscored 16-3 at that point. They were outscored 17-7 afterwards.

After the game Allen said he disagreed with Sherman’s assessment, but when asked if he was concerned about his job security, he glanced down at his podium and responded with a curt, “No.”
