Who Should I Start? Zach Ertz or Keenan Allen

Tuesday, October 14, 12:30 AM

Washington Commanders tight end Zach Ertz caught all six of his targets for 43 yards and a touchdown in Monday night's 25-24 loss to the Bears. After going without a catch for the first time since the 2014 season in last week's game against the Chargers, Ertz bounced back and led Washington with six receptions, including a red-zone touchdown. It tied his season high for receptions and marked his third touchdown of the year. It was good to see the veteran get back on track and be a reliable weapon for Daniels and the Washington passing attack, which has been beaten up with injuries. Ertz will remain in TE1 territory for Week 7 in a potential high-scoring matchup in Dallas.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen enters Week 6 as a clear high-floor option, leading the team with five catches on nine targets last week. The veteran faces a favorable matchup against the Miami Dolphins' secondary, which has allowed the ninth-most PPR points per target to perimeter wide receivers, a key area for Allen given his 23.1% target share. Allen is a high-volume receiver who often helps Justin Herbert by making difficult catches in crucial situations. If fellow wide receiver Quentin Johnston (hamstring) is limited or inactive, Allen's already high target share should only grow. RotoBaller ranks Allen as WR20 this week. He is a reliable low-end WR2 and should be started with confidence, especially in PPR formats.
