Keenan Allen

While a lot of eyes will be on Antonio Gates and Malcolm Floyd, Allen could have a big day by developing into one of Rivers favorite targets when everyone else is covered.

Allen had nine targets against Arizona and caught five of them for 37 yards.

He should get more targets against Seattle with Byron Maxwell blanketing him, but that could turn into a big mistake for Rivers and the Chargers.

Allen has a lot of speed and really good hands and could give Maxwell a run for his money in what could turn into another great outside matchup with Richard Sherman expected to battle Floyd on the other side of the field.
