However, a few plays later he tossed an ugly interception deep down the field that was picked off by Dean Marlowe.’

But I think the first couple days he tried to force something down the field, where now he’s like like ok, let’s make the right play, and I think when you start making the right play, you’re going to have more opportunities,” said Allen.’
