Eagles-Packers fantasy projections featuring Jordan Matthews, Aaron Rodgers, Jordy Nelson

We break down the Week 11 matchup between the Philadelphia Eagles and the Green Bay Packers.

The Week 11 matchup between the Philadelphia Eagles and the Green Bay Packers should be a closely contested shootout. We've got the fantasy projections for you courtesy of numberFire.

Philadelphia Eagles

Few would've predicted the blowout loss that the Eagles handed to the Carolina Panthers last week, but that's exactly what happened. The Eagles' victory was thanks in large part to the team's defense and special teams, but quarterback Mark Sanchez also did a great job managing the game, and he put up his fair share of stats. Through two games worth of limited action, Sanchez has 534 passing yards to go with four touchdowns and two interceptions. It looks as if he may be able to repair his career under coach Chip Kelly now that he's no longer with Rex Ryan in New York. Fantasy owners can go ahead and start Sanchez knowing that he will have to do a lot to offset the offensive juggernaut that is the Green Bay Packers.

If Sanchez does have a big game, it likely means that rookie wide receiver Jordan Matthews will have stabilized his fantasy value just in time for the stretch drive. The two had a great rapport in training camp and Matthews was regarded as one of the best receivers in the NFL draft this past offseason. If Matthews can follow up on the 138 receiving yards and two scores he posted against the Panthers last week, he will have officially arrived in the fantasy community, that's for sure.

Green Bay Packers

Believe it or not, quarterback Aaron Rodgers was upset following the team's blowout victory over the Chicago Bears last week. He was upset, of course, because he would've loved to stay in the game and been given the chance to tie Peyton Manning's record for touchdowns in a game with seven. Still, Rodgers had the game of his life against a horrible Bears' defensive effort, throwing six touchdown passes in the first half. Philadelphia's defense absolutely tore apart Carolina last week, so that performance is unlikely to be repeated by Rodgers, but that doesn't mean he won't have another huge game. He's had a lot of huge games this season.

That only means more touchdowns for his favorite target, Jordy Nelson. Nelson caught all six passes thrown his way last week and turned in 152 receiving yards and two scores. He's one of the best receivers in the game and catches his passes from one of the game's best quarterbacks. There's no reason not to start him against the Eagles, and expect more touchdowns considering that Nelson has scores in all but two games this year. Fantasy owners better get him in their lineups... that goes without saying.
