Makes perfect sense. In an ideal world McCarron's and Peterman's camps would place them as the second and third best quarterbacks in the league, only to be blown out of the water by Allen who steals the job by profiling as the greatest quarterback of all time.
Obviously that's hyperbole designed to generate groans and laughs, but if you stop and think about it of course we want Allen to win the job. It would validate the pick even further, and give the fan base hope that our "QB purgatory" is finally over.
