Keenan Allen, WR

The last player the Saints will need to plan for is probably the best player on the Chargers team. With Tyrod Taylor as the quarterback, the receivers were not much of a threat. However, with Justin Herbert at the wheel now; it is different.

In four weeks, Keenan Allen has 32 receptions on 48 targets. Those have gone for 327 yards and a touchdown. If anyone is going to beat you down the field, it is going to be Keenan Allen. His mix of speed and route-running ability makes for stardom.

As far as planning for him goes, it will lay solely on Marshon Lattimore, assuming he plays. If Jenkins and Lattimore are out again like last week it will be tough. The coaches need to be on their game preparing the secondary for Allen.

These three players make up the majority of the power of the LA Chargers. If the Saints are able to keep these three players in check, they are undoubtedly going to take home another win on Monday Night Football in front of the world.
