If you’re a fan of surprises, week 6’s action had more than its fair share to keep you entertained. From Brandon Jacobs entering a 2007 time machine to Thad Lewis outscoring Peyton Manning and Tony Romo combined, it was definitely a week of unexpected outcomes. That can only mean it wasn’t the easiest week for the experts to predict (43 TEs outscored Jimmy Graham, after all!).
With that in mind, let’s take a look at the top 10 experts (out of 131) from week 6 to see who handed out the best advice. You can also check out the accuracy portion of our site for ratings by position.
