BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues
OWNED IN: 3% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills shocked the football world Sunday by going into Minnesota and handing the Vikings a 27-6 beat down. Allen put up 27.74 which is the most fantasy points Minnesota has allowed to a quarterback since the beginning of 2017. Some of Allen’s total was fluky as we can’t expect him to rush for two touchdowns every week, but he still had a 111.2 passer rating and averaged 8.9 yards per attempt. Those rushing touchdowns could become passing touchdowns in future weeks and at the least Allen should be a bye week fill-in or 2-QB league option.
Allen has a good matchup next week against Green Bay. The Packers have allowed 262.3 passing yards per game thus far along with six touchdown passes. After the matchup against Green Bay Allen has more favorable matchups, taking on Tennessee, Houston, Indianapolis, and New England in the four weeks following that. Tennessee is the only team that should make an owner think twice before starting in that group. We’ll find out what Allen is made of in those starts and in deeper leagues now is the time to pick him up.
