AthX Top NFL Teams, Skill Players & IDP (October 26, 2026)

Week 7 ended with Minnesota the last unbeaten club, Kansas City taking its first loss, and Dallas remembering how to hand the ball off on Monday night. Chicago had already won Thursday. Tampa Bay ran for 258 on Sunday. Cincinnati climbed out of 13-0 in Baltimore. AthX Engine (our projection and scoring system) already has the weekly lines. The team board is blowouts. The player board is still a Titans back who scored three times and lost.

Thursday in Chicago is already up. So are six Sunday recaps from Monday's batch. This Top 10 covers the rest of the week through Dallas at Philadelphia. Vikings-Colts waits for a leftover run.

Top team fantasy scores

AthX Engine team points pay a win, then points scored, then points allowed. A 43-13 game jumps the board. A 16-10 slog in Paris does not.

Tampa Bay's 119.25 is the week because 43 points and 13 allowed still pay even after a 1-5 start. Cincinnati is next on a 35-point second half. Dallas's Monday night is third: 38 points on the road after two losses. Cleveland's 27-24 (65.50) sits just outside. So does Detroit's walk-off (56.75) and Pittsburgh's Paris win (55.50). Those games are in the recap list anyway.

Top skill players

QB, RB, WR, TE, K only. The IDP board is the next table.

Pollard ran for 129 and three scores in a 27-24 loss. That is the skill board being honest: volume counts when your team does not. Smith-Njigba had 150 and a score in a 20-3 win. Burrow threw four after halftime. McBride caught 10 for 111 in another Cardinals home loss. Maye's Thursday night still sits fifth.

Nix's 62-yard scramble and 52-yard screen are 48.01. Higgins had 148 in Baltimore. Javonte Williams ran for 155 on Monday. Flowers piled up yards in a Ravens loss. Willis started for Miami because Tua Tagovailoa is a Falcon this season. Luther Burden III (42.25) is next.

Top IDP

Sacks and takeaways move this board more than tackle volume.

Adebawore's two sacks in Minneapolis lead the entire Week 7 player board, skill included. Cashman matched two sacks for the unbeaten Vikings. Singleton's 12 solos and a sack in Glendale are third. Bates had the takeaway night in Atlanta. Nohl Williams picked Sam Darnold in a 20-3 loss. That is the IDP card: you can wreck a pocket in Seattle and still sit behind a Colts tackle in a 16-10 defeat.

Chase Young (46.50) is next, from Paris. Tykee Smith (46.50) already led the Buccaneers recap.

From the Week 7 card

Six recaps from this leftover-and-Monday batch:

Monday's Sunday recaps are already up: Buccaneers 43, Panthers 13, Bengals 35, Ravens 13, Falcons 29, 49ers 20, Rams 35, Raiders 21, Giants 27, Texans 21, Seahawks 20, Chiefs 3. Thursday night: Bears 30, Patriots 24.

What stood out

Three things, not fifteen rows.

First, the team board is the 40-point afternoons. Tampa Bay's 119.25 is not a rounding week. Cincinnati and Dallas are the next two because they scored and they covered. Miami's first win still sneaks 10th at 66.75. Paris does not.

Second, the skill board split between losing volume and winning explosives. Pollard, McBride, and Flowers all cleared 44 in losses. Nix, Smith-Njigba, Burrow, and Javonte Williams did it in wins. Willis's first Miami win is 10th on a night Tua Tagovailoa was not in that huddle.

Third, AthX Engine still pays the interior line and the linebacker table first. Adebawore at 71.00 is the weekly leader, not Pollard. Singleton at 67.00 did it in a 30-16 win. If you only read passing yards, you will misread this marketplace.
