Week 11 Fantasy Rankings: Carson Palmer and QBs You Must Start

Oakland Raiders quarterback Carson Palmer has finally shaken the rust off of his right arm and is ready to lead your fantasy football team to a league title.

Palmer is one of several quarterbacks with favorable matchups this week. Knowing which quarterback to start can make or break your week, and with the fantasy playoffs approaching, you cannot afford to make the wrong roster decisions.

Let's look at three quarterback you must start in Week 11 of the NFL season.

1. Eli Manning, New York Giants

New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning faces an overrated Philadelphia Eagles defense on Sunday, a unit he beat in Week 3 with a four-touchdown performance.

Manning has the NFL's second-best fourth-quarter rating at 116.5, and is ranked fifth in touchdown passes with 17.

Manning's previous success against the Eagles in addition to the fact he has several quality receivers to throw to such as receivers Victor Cruz, Mario Manningham and Hakeem Nicks make the Giants QB a smart play this week.

If Arizona Cardinals quarterback John Skelton can play well against the Eagles and beat them like he did last week then so can Manning.

2. Matt Moore, Miami Dolphins

Yes, you should start Miami Dolphins quarterback Matt Moore if you play in a fantasy league that starts two quarterbacks.

Moore has played well since becoming the Dolphins starting quarterback, and has thrown four touchdown passes with just two interceptions in the last four games.

The Buffalo Bills allow 261.4 passing yards per game and have lost two straight games. Moore has some quality receivers to throw to plus he will be able to check down to running back Reggie Bush for some easy completions.

Moore is a dependable start this week against a defense that allows a lot of passing yards.

3. Carson Palmer

After two shaky starts to begin his Oakland Raiders career, Palmer played very well in a win against the San Diego Chargers last week.

Palmer looks much more comfortable in the pocket, and he threw just one interception last Thursday night.

Against a poor Minnesota Vikings pass defense that allows 272.8 yards passing per game, Palmer will once again lead the high-scoring Raiders offense.

Palmer has a great chance to go over 300 yards passing with multiple scores this week against a defense whose cornerbacks are quite small.
