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 Orleans Saints won the 2011 Roto Champ with 1598.9 points, 107.1 ahead of the New England Patriots. Drew Brees led the way with 394.0 points, 25 percent of the lineup. The lineup leans on its tight end more than most: 15 percent of the total, about 43 percent above what that slot gave the average team this season. Their flex spot went to a running back, Mark Ingram. Take running back out of it and the result flips: that slot alone was worth 169.2 points, more than the 107.1 between them overall.
