1. Nick Foles-QB-Philadelphia Eagles (10.3%)

The Romo-coaster may have some competition for the most up-and-down fantasy quarterback play. I guess we could go Foller-coster?… Anyway, this week was definitely a huge high for the young Eagles QB who tied an NFL record with seven passing touchdowns and threw for 402 yards against Oakland before sitting out much of the fourth quarter.

Foles has had two really solid starts now against the Bucs and Raiders but in between those two games had an absolute stinker against Dallas going 11-29 for just 80 yards. Foles also has to worry about Michael Vick eventually coming back although his situation was cleared up by the fact that Vick has already been declared out for week 10.

That means Foles gets another start next week as he faces the Packers who sill be coming off a short week after playing Monday Night Football. While I don’t think Foles will look nearly as good as he did in week 9, he still is a solid options if you need QB help since he’s shown his high’s can be lights out. He’s definitely risky and will probably continue to struggle with consistency, but overall he’s a great option for quarterback challenged teams since his upcoming schedule includes Green Bay, Washington, Detroit, Arizona, and Minnesota. Make sure you’re also aware that he has yet to have his bye week
