Defenses rose up in this past week and not only were key players in many games, they also kept the scores lower than in recent weeks. No team cracked the century mark.
In week 6, only the Detroit Lions and the Dallas Cowboys managed to win fantasy games they lost in real life.
High score of the week goes to the Chicago Bears, who scored 94 points against the hapless Minnesota Vikings.
Low score falls to the Minnesota Vikings at 35 points, who were unable to score enough fantasy points to beat the real 39 points Da Bears dropped on them.
Closest Game of the Week: Detroit Lions 73, San Francisco 66. The Lions continued their winning ways despite losing their real game in the final seconds against the 49ers.
Fantasy Stars of the Week: Ahmad Bradshaw, 30 points. Bradshaw paved the way for another Giants victory with his impressive 3 touchdown day against the Buffalo Bills.
