This week’s NFL games had plenty of surprises in the first seven games of the day which started at 1:00. In one of the least surprising results, the Cowboys rolled over the Jaguars in London with big games from Tony Romo and Dez Bryant.  On the other end of the surprise spectrum, the Jets shocked the world as they beat the previously red-hot Steelers.

For your fantasy football team, these are the players who stepped up and turned in the top scores from the seven early games:

Dez Bryant-WR-Dallas Cowboys

Bryant went off in London against the Jags scoring a pair of first-half touchdowns on his way to 158 yards on six catches.  He repeatedly ran over the Jaguars picking up huge yards after the catch and putting up to top score of the week to this point.

Justin Forsett-RB-Baltimore Ravens

It took the Ravens a while to get things going, but they ran all over the Titans run defense led by Justin Forsett.  Forsett ran for 112 yards on his 20 carries while finding the end zone twice in the Ravens 21-7 win.

Josh McCown-QB-Tampa Bay Buccaneers

The Bucs didn’t avenge their earlier embarrassment against the Falcons, but McCown and the offense looked pretty solid. McCown threw a pair of touchdowns and 301 yards while adding 39 yards rushing and throwing an interception in the closing seconds of the game.

Tony Romo-QB-Dallas Cowboys

Romo overcame his back injury and threw for 301 yards in the Cowboys win in London.  He connected with Dez Bryant for a pair of touchdowns and a third touchdown pass which went to Jason Witten.  Romo’s three-score day was his sixth multi-TD day in his last seven games.

Jimmy Graham-TE-New Orleans Saints

Graham’s “Hail Mary” at the end of regulation was disallowed, but he still turned in a great day for his fantasy owners finishing with a pair of touchdowns on his ten catches while piling up 76 yards.

Martavis Bryant-WR-Pittsburgh Steelers

Bryant continues to produce fantasy points despite not catching many passes.  In week 10, he saved his fantasy day with an 80-yard touchdown finishing with 143 yards on his four catches.

Drew Brees-QB-New Orleans Saints

Brees had three turnovers in the Saints loss to the 49ers including a fumble at the end of the game to set up the game-winning field goal for San Francisco.  He did throw for three touchdowns and 292 yards finishing with a solid stat line.

Mike Evans-WR-Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Evans continues to emerge as a top receiver and a change at QB didn’t affect his production.  He finished with 125 yards and a touchdown on his seven catches while drawing nine targets from Josh McCown.

Calvin Johnson-WR-Detroit Lions

Megatron is back! After missing three complete games with his injury, Calvin Johnson caught seven of his 15 targets for 113 yards and a touchdown.  He’s clearly an elite WR1 and should be started in all formats.

Jamaal Charles-RB-Kansas City Chiefs

Charles led the Chiefs to a 17-13 win over the Bills in Buffalo.  He scored a rushing touchdown while totaling 98 yards on 15 carries and added 20 yards on his three catches.

Matthew Stafford-QB-Detroit Lions

Stafford welcomed back Megatron and led the Lions to a big come-from-behind win over Miami.  He threw the game-winning touchdown as part of his 280 yards and two touchdowns while also throwing an interception.  He’s a solid QB1 at this point going forward.

Denard Robinson-RB-Jacksonville Jaguars

One of the biggest surprises of the season has been Robinson’s emergence as a true lead-back in the Jags attack.  He had a pair of rushing touchdowns in London against the Cowboys while totaling 60 yards on 15 carries and 10 yards on a pair of catches.
