Undefeated in real-life does not translate to being undefeated in a fantasy setting. Apparently great comebacks only work for real wins as the NFL's week 4 action turned up a few surprising fantasy results.
In week 4, the Philadelphia Eagles, Carolina Panthers and the Dallas Cowboys all managed to win fantasy games they lost in real life.
High score of the week goes to the Green Bay Packers, who scored 119 points against the Denver Broncos.
Low score falls to the New York Jets at 31 points, who were unable to score enough fantasy points to beat the real 34 points the Baltimore Ravens scored against them.
Closest Game of the Week: Dallas Cowboys 83, Detroit Lions 81. Even though the Lions staged quite the dramatic comeback on Sunday, Dallas' role players generated enough stats to swing victory the way of the home team in this epic matchup.
Fantasy Star of the Week: Aaron Rodgers, 45 points. Nobody else even came close.
