Editor’s note: This post will take a look at the top Fantasy Football Week 14 scoring leaders and top performers from the early games.

There were nine early games this Sunday in the NFL with some surprises, some huge divisional games, and another walk-off win for the Vikings.  Here are the players that have gotten their owners the most points so far this week:

Le’Veon Bell-RB-Pittsburgh Steelers

Bell led the Steelers in their second-half surge past the Bengals.  He piled up 185 yards rushing on 26 carries while scoring a pair of rushing TDs.  He added 50 yards on his six catches while finding the end zone a third time through the air. With his 41 points in standard scoring, Bell leads our week 14 scoring leaders.

Cam Newton-QB-Carolina Panthers

Newton led the Panthers into New Orleans where they dominated the Saints getting a 41-10 win. Newton threw three TD’s completing 21 of 33 passes for a total of 226 yards and adding 83 yards and a rushing touchdown as well.

Ben Roethlisberger-QB-Pittsburgh Steelers

Roehtlisberger threw for 350 yards against the Bengals finding the end zone three times and also completing a two-point conversion.

A.J. Green-WR-Cincinnati Bengals

Green put up a huge game in a losing effort to the Steelers.  He caught 11 passes for a monster 224 yards and a touchdown.  He continues his late-season surge and is definitely a WR1 going forward.

Andy Dalton-QB-Cincinnati Bengals

Dalton threw all those yards to Green and put together a solid line even though his team got doubled-up. He finished with 302 yards passing and a pair of touchdowns and 22 yards and a touchdown on four rushes.

Joique Bell-RB-Detroit Lions

Bell had his best fantasy game of the season finding the end zone twice against the Bucs.  He ran for 83 yards and a touchdown on his 18 carries while adding another 50 yards and a touchdown through the air.

T.Y. Hilton-WR-Indianapolis Colts

Hilton and the Colts scrambled from behind and edged out the Browns in Cleveland.  He hauled in ten passes in the Indianapolis comeback finding the end zone twice and piling up 150 yards.

New York Giants D/ST

The Giants defense returned a fumble for a touchdown while holding the Titans to just seven points as they rolled 36-7.  They forced three turnovers and added eight sacks to turn in the biggest game from any team defense this week.

Matthew Stafford-QB-Detroit Lions

Stafford threw three touchdown passes as the Lions cruised past the Bucs.  He totaled 311 yards and had over 20 fantasy points in standard scoring for the second week in a row.
