SD WR Keenan Allen - Week 14, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 14 - Allen vs. New England

Keenan Allen continued his torrid pace over the last three games, adding 11 catches for 121 yards and two TDs last week as the Bolts had to come from behind to knock off Baltimore.

Last week was a pretty favorable matchup coming in as teams tend to struggle to run the ball on the Ravens, so after falling behind Rivers and company took to the air. The matchup is more difficult this week as teams tend to struggle to throw the ball on the Patriots. Allen could very well see a lot of Darrelle Revis this week and the Pats have always been good at taking away whomever they chose from an opponents' offense.

So, the Pats could very well choose to take away the red-hot Allen who has averaged a line of 8-95-1 over the last three weeks. He's also averaged 13 targets in that span. He comes in ranked 20th this week despite those numbers.

SD WR Keenan Allen - Week 13, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 13 - Allen vs. Baltimore

Owners of Keenan Allen finally got what they were looking for last week as Allen busted out for six catches, 104 yards and his second TD of the year. All came on nine targets. It was only his second 100-yard game of the season, and his first since Week 4 against Jacksonville when he went for 10-135. It was his first TD since Week 8 against Denver.

This week's matchup appears to be another favorable one, as teams that can't run against the Ravens end up taking to the air. Baltimore is near the bottom of the league in allowing fantasy points to WRs as a result. Allen still has fantasy consistency issues and comes with risks, but can at least be used as a solid WR3 option who's seeing over 10 targets per game over his last five.

SD WR Keenan Allen - Week 12, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 12 - Allen vs. St. Louis

Last week, Keenan Allen caught eight balls for 63 yards on 13 targets. Allen has averaged over 11 targets the last four games but outside of that the fantasy production just hasn't been what owners hoped for when drafting back in summer.

This week, Allen gets a much better matchup, taking on the Rams who are ranked 24th in allowing fantasy points to WRs. Still, Allen comes in ranked 31st this week, so even in a good matchup he's just a high-end WR4 in a 10-team league. His ranking likely also takes a hit thanks to news about a potential rib injury for QB Philip Rivers.

SD WR Keenan Allen - Week 11, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 11 - Allen vs. Oakland
Coming off a big game vs. Denver in Week 8, many thought Keenan Allen was back, but the whole team threw out a clunker in Week 9 in Miami before the bye. Allen finished with just four catches for 47 yards but did have nine targets.

Allen takes on Oakland this week, but when you play the Raiders there isn't always a lot of need to throw the ball. So, Allen falls to a WR3 this week outside of our top-20. He just hasn't been a good play and because of the matchup remains risky even against the Raiders. The good news is he's averaging over 10 targets per game his last three contests, so those continue to climb.

SD WR Keenan Allen - Week 9, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 9 - Allen vs. Miami
Keenan Allen may be starting to show signs of life. He finished with nine catches for 73 yards and a TD last week as the Bolts were trying to keep pace with the Broncos. He was targeted a season-high 13 times in the game.

Allen now has 15 catches and 23 targets his last two games. This week's matchup is a tough one as Miami is 10th in allowing fantasy points to WRs and fifth allowing fantasy points to QBs. Allen comes in as a low-end WR2 this week on our list. Despite some life lately, it's tough to trust him, but as a low-end WR2 or high-end WR3 you may be able to live with that, and he could surprise a little.

SD WR Keenan Allen - Week 8, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 8 - Allen vs. Denver
Last week Keenan Allen caught six balls for 58 yards on 10 targets. It was the most in each category since Week 4 when Allen went off for 10-135-0-11 against the Jags.

Allen hasn't been a safe play this year outside of that big Week 4. And this week it's the Broncos who rank 15th in aFPA to WRs. In the recent past, the Bolts have tried to use a running game to keep Peyton Manning off the field and keep the game close. If that doesn't work and they have to play catch-up, Allen could be looking at a big day. But we have our doubts, ranking Allen just 30th on our list of WRs, which is low-end WR3 in a ten-team league.

SD WR Keenan Allen - Week 7, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 7 - Allen vs. Kansas City
Keenan Allen caught just three balls for 27 yards last week on six targets. He played 97% of the snaps but just hasn't put it together this season outside of one game against the Jags.

This week it's the Chiefs, who are again an average matchup for Allen and the Bolts. It appears after six weeks that QB Philip Rivers is looking elsewhere in the red zone as Allen is without a TD catch this season. This week Allen is ranked 28th on our list making him a WR3 play in typical leagues. He's just not a safe play right now.
