The Eagles are turning to Mark Sanchez this week, but are still favored over the Bucs. A look at some more early lines heading into Week 11 of the NFL season.

Week 11 of the NFL season could prove to be one of the more interesting cards of the year, with several uncertainties surrounding the quarterback position. Oddsmakers have their work cut out for them this week as they look to duplicate the success that they had in Week 10 in taking the public to the cleaners.

Four games on this week’s card will see teams start quarterbacks who did not start for them the week before. 

Tony Romo is expected to return for the Cowboys as they head to Miami to battle the Dolphins. This game is listed as a betting pick'em at sportsbooks monitored by OddsShark.com, and the Dolphins will look to avoid a letdown as they’re just 1-6 straight up in their last seven games after a win.
