With 241 points this weekend, Peter Richmond of Alexandria, Va. broke the Fantasy Index Super League scoring record. Peter played the two highest scoring QB's (Drew Brees and Eli Manning), the highest scoring RB (Todd Gurley) and the highest scoring wideout (Odell Beckham).
Peter broke the scoring record previously held by Michael Stolz of Great Falls, Va., who scored 236 points in Week 10 last year.
Peter scored 87.3 percent of the perfect score -- second best ever. (Ray McCutcheon of Nashville hit 87.4 percent in Week 4, 2013). What makes this score incredible is his selection of QB's. Drew Brees was chosen by only 9.3 percent of contestants last week; Eli Manning was chosen by 2.47 percent.
