Who Should I Start? Keenan Allen or Keon Coleman

Tuesday, December 17, 1:34 AM

Chicago Bears wide receiver Keenan Allen caught six of 13 targets for 81 yards and a touchdown in his team's 30-12 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. The veteran was Chicago's lone bright spot on Monday night and has been superb over his last few outings. After a horrendous start to the year, Allen has had four TDs in his previous four outings, and at least 73 yards, and eight targets in three of them. Since Week 9, the 32-year-old has racked up 65 targets to fellow wideout DJ Moore's 61. However, the latter has out-caught him 43-36. With quarterback Caleb Williams chucking it all over the yard on nearly 60% of Chicago's plays (59.03), there will surely be plenty of opportunities to go around. Still, they're not of the highest quality. Allen and the Bears will square off against the Detroit Lions in the fantasy semi-finals next Sunday.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Keon Coleman was quiet in all but one play (a 64-yard reception) against the Detroit Lions. Despite his lackluster usage, the rookie was on the field for 63% of the snaps in his first game back from a wrist injury. That was more than any other Buffalo receiver. Coleman may play the most but Buffalo often rotates their receivers and Josh Allen spreads the football around. Khalil Shakir, who mans the slot, is the most reliable of the group. The Bills are favored by 14 points, which could lead to more rushing attempts rather than downfield throws, an area where Coleman shines. The second-round pick is in the WR5 range in the rankings this week.
