Start: Robert Woods, Los Angeles Rams

@ San Francisco 49ers

The Los Angeles Rams figure to be without Cooper Kupp for the next few weeks which likely means more targets for Robert Woods. Jared Goff already heavily targets Woods and should look his way more often with Kupp out of the lineup.

This week the Rams face a porous San Francisco 49ers defense. They are currently allowing just under 280 passing yards per game.

Look for the Rams to attack through the air early in the game and then grind out the clock with Todd Gurley.

Sit: Keenan Allen, Los Angeles Chargers

@ Tennessee Titans

The Tennessee Titans might have an extremely sluggish offensive attack, but their defense is keeping them in the playoff hunt. This unit has limited opponents to just 17 points per game. Tennessee’s defense is excelling in all aspects of the game.

This doesn’t bode well for Keenan Allen who has failed to meet expectations this season. Allen was drafted as a WR1 in most fantasy leagues, but just isn’t holding up his end of the bargain. Things wont be any easier heading to Tennessee this weekend.

Another factor hurting Allen’s fantasy production has been the success of Melvin Gordon. The Chargers have made Gordon the focal point of their offense. This includes a lot of usage in the passing attack.
