Yahoo Sports NFL on Braelon Allen
From the article
the nearly 250-pound Allen should step in and shoulder the load. Running backs have found success against the Bears both on the ground and through the air, so expect 15-18 reasonably efficient all-purpose touches for Allen.
STACKED’s take
Allen set to lead Jets backfield against Bears' weak run defense in letdown spot.
Allen faces the Bears, who are allowing a generous 4.9 yards per carry to running backs this season. The Bears just held the Eagles to seven points on Monday Night Football and have only six days to recover, creating a classic letdown spot for their defense. With Breece Hall set to miss the next couple of games, the nearly 250-pound Allen should step in and shoulder the load. Running backs have found success against the Bears both on the ground and through the air, so expect 15-18 reasonably efficient all-purpose touches for Allen. In the betting and prediction markets, his total yards prop is sitting at 71.5 yards, and his odds to score are nearly 50-50. The source prefers Allen over Omarion Hampton as a start.
