Fantasy Index Blackout

Todd Voorhees and "Borrachos" drunk on Blackout victory

But let's talk about the Gronkowski problem

Despite a starting lineup that included Rob Gronkowski -- it was known on Saturday that he didn't travel with the Patriots -- Todd Voorhees outscored the rest of us this week. Click through to see his winning lineup and the overall standings -- and to learn how to sub out an injured player.

Todd hit four maximum points players (Jameis Winston, Kareem Hunt, Emmanuel Sanders and Trey Burton) on his way to the week's highest score. We're sending him a $25 Fantasy Index gift certificate in recognition of his intellectual superiority.

Even though Todd was the best this week, he still could have been even better.

We were disappointed to see that Todd was among the 22 percent of you who started Rob Gronkowski in Week 7, even after news broke on Saturday that he wasn't traveling with the team.

You can change your Blackout lineups after you submit them, folks! Here's how: Go to your entry and find the player you want to swap out. Grab the handles on the left side of his name, and drag his tile over to the list of players on the right. Then find the player you'd like to sub in, and drag him from right to left. Easy! You can make swaps right up until gametime. This would have helped Todd be even more superior. (Or maybe one of the 76 other Gronk-starters would've made a lineup switch and overtaken Todd.)

Enter now for Week 8!

And once again we have a lead change at the top of the season-long contest. Steven Math of Austin, Texas finished 10th overall this week, and moved clear of the field. But here's a question: If your name was Math, would you call your team Math Mania? No. You'd call it Voodoo Math or Math Olympiad or Drill and Kill or Barbie says Math is tough.

Help Steven rename his team! Leave your suggestion in the comments.
