Week 1 Results (2013) ~ "If Real Football Used Fantasy Scoring..."

A wild opening weekend of NFL action has produced some fairly stable fantasy football results.

In week 1, only the New York Giants managed to win a fantasy game they lost in real life.

High score of the week goes to the Denver Broncos, who scored 145 points against the Baltimore Ravens.

Low score falls to the Jacksonville Jaguars at 17 points. They were unable to score enough fantasy points to beat the real 28 points the Kansas City Chiefs scored against them.

Closest Game of the Week: St. Louis Rams 80, Arizona Cardinals 78.

Fantasy Stars of the Week: Peyton Manning, 46 points. Clearly Manning knows how to throw the football and propel both his real team and his fantasy teams to victory.
