Before two weeks ago, someone saying "Mark Sanchez" would usually provoke a thought about a butt fumble, a girly headband or tons and tons of turnovers. Well, he's performed remarkably well for the Philadelphia Eagles with two wins under his belt.
Fantasy football start/sit advice, Week 11: Mark Sanchez
Mark Sanchez is suddenly the Sanchise again. Should fantasy owners trust him yet?

Last week, he had one of his best performances of his career with a line of 332 passing yards, two touchdowns and no turnovers against the Carolina Panthers. Although it does come with a grain of salt with the Panthers being gashed in their secondary all season long.
This week, it's going to be a much tougher task against the Green Bay Packers. The Pack ranks as the seventh-toughest defense against fantasy quarterbacks and they just ate Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler for dinner in Week 10. The Eagles still do not have their offensive line all the way back and this game is on the road, so Sanchez is far from a safe bet.
Fantasy impact: The Packers have allowed multiple passing touchdowns at home just once on the season, so it’s hard to get excited about Sanchez. He’s a QB2.
