Nov 11, 2013 12:24 PM EST

The NFL and fantasy schedule is moving into Week 11 after the Dolphins and Buccaneers play on Monday night football and that means owners will be looking for the best available football players on the market and some of the best names includes Nick Foles, Mark Ingram, Giovani Bernard, Keenan Allen and Case Keenum.

The fantasy season is now pushing towards the playoffs and teams in need of replacements for injuries or poor play has some options, especially for QB Aaron Rodgers, as both Case Keenum and Nick Foles are solid pickups. Foles has been fantastic this season since taking over for Michael Vick and now he has won four of five games for the team and he now has 16 touchdowns this season and no interceptions and he looks like a solid fantasy starter the rest of the way this season, especially in Chip Kelly's offense. Foles had seven touchdowns last week and he now has 10 in the past two games and after going for over 400 yards last week he had 228 on Sunday and completed over 65 percent of his passes, making it for 63 this season and he now has over 1,200 yards in a short time period of starting.

Foles has been very good with players like Riley Cooper and DeSean Jackson and he has a penchant for the big play and that should continue, especially with the Washington Redskins coming and they have been terrible against the pass, ranking as one of the worst teams in the league this season. Foles his Jackson on a nice pass in the game and with Vick out with an injury, it looks like Foles will be the starter for the rest of the season. He had a terrible game in the loss to the Cowboys, but other than that he has been brilliant and with no turnovers coming from him, the Eagles have a chance in every game.

After dealing with trade rumors and other issues with being inactive and injuries, Saints RB Mark Ingram had his best game of the season and his career, as he was over 100 yards for the first time and had his best game of the year, in only his fourth game this season. Ingram went for 145 yards and made two catches for 15 yards and he also added a rushing touchdown and he basically almost totaled his season amount on one carry with a 34 yard run and now he could be a factor in the backfield going forward with Pierre Thomas and Darren Sproles. Ingram looked very good while averaging 10 yards per carry and that could mean he is active heading down the rest of the season, even with the 49ers coming up, as he had double digit carries for the first time this year as well.

Giovani Bernard couldn't get the yards when it counted in overtime, but he has continued to be a productive running back in fantasy, as he finished the day against the Ravens with over 20 touches, up from 13 last week against the Dolphins. Bernard had 58 yards rushing and eight catches for 37 yards and a receiving touchdown and that makes three TDs now in the past two games and he has been excellent catching the ball, making nearly 40 catches for over 300 yards and for owners in PPR leagues, Bernard is a fantastic option going forward as long as he remains healthy. Last week he had 79 yards rushing on less carries so that was down, but he will play against the Browns once again next week and that could be a good matchup for the Bengals.
