Up to this point, this fantasy season has been anything but consistent through the one-quarter mark. One massive superstar has been hurt since week 1, other stars are finding it hard to get their season’s going, and rookie running backs are having their way with the top of the leaderboard at their position. A sure-thing player hasn’t been a concept thus far and, quite frankly, it’s made things a bit more exciting.
Who knows what anomaly is going to happen next? The suspense is killer.
As for the standings, Richard and Lou find themselves as the last two undefeated teams in the BFTB staff league. However, Lou has an 80 point chasm between him and Richard which is a lot of separation. Three teams stand at 3-1. This includes me, Jason, and Roger. Derrick and Daniel are sitting at 2-2 on the year while Thomas, Max, and Cody are stuck at 1-3. Aaron and Ruben are locked in the cellar with matching 0-4 records.

- Ezekiel Elliott - 29.90

- Devin Funchess - 26.00
- Houston Defense - 19.00

- Drew Brees - 19.02

Top Players for Max
- Aaron Rodgers - 23.06
- Keenan Allen - 18.80
- Jared Goff - 18.10
