Broncos132 350 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 He could honestly do well against Dallas and Pitt(auto start this week obviously). I'm not as scared of those matchups like most are. I'm trying to upgrade at that position myself, but if I have to ride this out then so be it. If I make it to Week 16, I am absolutely trying to avoid him tbh. Anyone riding it out till then? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I've had him as my starting QB all year, but I was always going to spot start my 2nd QB for matchups down the stretch. I picked up Foles hoping he picks up his gunslinger ways. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think Allen is better in rough matchups, with gamescripts similar to the Browns game. I guess we'll see Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think even in subpar matchups he can produce with his legs so there's always upside Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kraftwrk_5 656 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 No real blowup games, but he’s at least had a decent floor. Likely gonna roll with BDN Foles in the playoffs over him though. His playoff matchups are downright tasty. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SenatorSpaceman 2,523 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 Allen has had a very steady floor and has been my starter on multiple playoff-bound teams since Buffalo's bye. However, I'm cutting bait after this week's game vs. Miami. His schedule ROS is an absolute nightmare. I was able to grab Brissett to replace him and am hoping that he can supply a similar floor upon Hilton's return. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Evincar 1,719 Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 I think people here are getting a little too nervous with regards to Allen's matchups. Only one that truly scares me is New England in Week 16. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Only one that truly scares me is New England in Week 16. From Week 12 to Week 16, Allen’s opponents are 3rd, 5th, 10th, 8th, and 1st against fantasy QBs respectively. Why roster him if you have any other reasonable option? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hell he went for 25 last week with no passing TDs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

owenmills 5,327 Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 Say what you will in real life but he is pretty money in fantasy, especially 4 point passing TD leagues 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PlayTheWaivers 1,886 Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 He literally loves destroying the Dolphins. his high watermark for the season for sure. Biggest regret was dropping him against the Pats... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PizzaBeerFF 760 Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 I used him this week to fill in for Wilson on the bye. Worked out great. Will have to look at match ups now to see if he might be a better start than Wilson. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm still planning on rolling with Wentz, but I might try to hang on to Allen just in case. I already locked up a bye so I really only need a QB for weeks 15 and 16 and Allen is @PIT and @NE those weeks. I can't imagine anyone starting him there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JJ1223 1,849 Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 This guy is absolutely saving my season after a couple failed draft picks at QB. With that said, looking at Denver's numbers against opposing QB, I am scared to death for next week. Who is starting him? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cousins just torched the Broncos defense, albeit in the 2nd half of the contest. I think Allen presents a good enough floor with his rushing to start him again next week. Rolling him out there over Wentz, just can't trust Wentz right now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

daethfromabove1979 874 Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 The only dud he’s had all year was against New England where he got hurt and also threw 3 interceptions but still got 11.72 fantasy points. He’s got one of the better floors at QB. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
