Matchups We Hate

Chargers TEs

Gerald Everett and Donald Parham Jr. are sharing the tight end role. The offense does need a red zone threat, so they'll maintain that opportunity on a weekly basis, but that's really their only appeal at this point. Everett is still the starter if you're looking for someone this week.

Keenan Allen (WR, LAC)

Allen was so close to a monster day. Justin Herbert overthrew him on a sideline play that would've likely gone the distance. He still finished with seven grabs for 85 yards and a score, but there's a chance for him to beat that this week. Kansas City has a talented secondary, but Allen lines up all over the field, so he'll be just fine. Joshua Palmer was doing his best Mike Williams impression, making contested catches downfield. He averaged 20 yards per reception, which is valuable utilization. He slots in as a top-36 wideout. Quentin Johnston looks like a bust at this point. It's not as if another receiver played ahead of him because they have no one else to turn to, but finishing with zero receptions is unacceptable. He's unstartable for the foreseeable future.
