Keenan Allen, Los Angeles Chargers, $7,400

Stats: 996 receiving yards, 5 touchdowns 

What a Week 13 Keenan Allen had against the Pittsburgh Steelers defense. Allen caught 14 balls for 148 receiving yards and a touchdown. We don’t see a lot changing in Week 14 when he will go up against the worst defense in the NFL. What makes this matchup even better is his price tag. Allen has one of the highest floors in fantasy football. His targets per game ranks 10th and his receptions rank eighth in the NFL this season.

These boys are balling out in 2018. They made a statement to the Steelers and the rest of the NFL Sunday night. Allen will continue his productive ways against a Cincinnati Bengals unit that can’t stop a nosebleed this season. The Bengals who rank dead last in the NFL also have to travel to sunny California for this contest. Which only helps Allen and his Week 14 productivity. Look for Allen and the Chargers to get on the Bengals early and keep the pedal down.

Can you imagine how the Chargers feel at this moment? Coming into this game at 9-3? They just beat what many would consider a Super Bowl contender in their house. This game won’t even be close. Allen will score at least one touchdown and catch at least 10 balls. This is one of the best matchups all season long. We have seen crazier things happen in the NFL though (cough) Week 13. Allen and the Chargers will ball out no worries.

Prediction: 150 receiving yards, 2 touchdowns
