Roto Champ
Every NFL team scored as a roto fantasy team. The title the NFL never hands out.
▶How is it scored?
Lineup: every team is its best possible starting lineup by that season’s fantasy points. QB · RB · RB · WR · WR · WR · TE · FLEX, in ½PPR.
Scoring: football is a points game, not categories. The lineup’s total ½PPR points is the team’s score, and the highest total wins the title.
A team can be Roto Champ without winning the real title: that gap is the whole fun.

The New England Patriots won the 2007 Roto Champ with 1479.7 points, 184.5 clear of the Dallas Cowboys and never really pressed. It was largely a two-man job: Tom Brady and Randy Moss account for 49 percent of the lineup between them. The lineup leans on its quarterback more than most: 26 percent of the total, about 53 percent above what that slot gave the average team this season. Their flex spot went to a receiver, Jabar Gaffney. The title turned on receiver, where the New England Patriots were 225.0 points better, more than the 184.5 between them overall.
