Yahoo Fantasy Football on Keenan Allen
From the article
The 34-year-old continues to add to his fringe Hall of Fame resume, as he's commanded at least nine targets in three straight games since the Alec Pierce injury. During this time, Allen's averaged over six catches, 60 yards, and nearly 15 fantasy points per game. This is the week to stop riding that wave.
STACKED’s take
Allen's 9-target streak ends vs. Vikings' elite defense and pressuring Jones.
Allen, 34 years old, has commanded at least nine targets in three straight games since the Alec Pierce injury and averaged over six catches, 60 yards, and nearly 15 fantasy points per game during this stretch. However, Week 7 is the week to stop riding that wave. The Vikings have shut down every wide receiver this year except Christian Watson and Matthew Golden, who boast elite speed which Allen lacks and benefit from Jordan Love, a far better passer than Daniel Jones. The Vikings defense is No. 1 in pressure rate, and Jones has been one of the NFL's worst quarterbacks when pressured, with a completion rate under 50% in these situations and just one touchdown to three interceptions with a 52.9 rating under pressure. Saquon Barkley recommends flexing a tight end like Tyler Higbee over Allen.
