Top 30 fantasy scorers: Week 8

It was a huge week for fantasy totals with 26 players putting up 20 points or more when all was said and done. The Week 8 list is led by Steelers' quarterback Ben Roethlisberger who posted over 500 passing yards and six passing touchdowns for a ridiculous fantasy day. Some surprises this week include Bills' signal caller Kyle Orton along with some unexpected rookie performances. Find out who else made the cut below and follow along all season right here. This list is based on NFL.com's standard (non-PPR) scoring system that rewards four points for touchdown passes and six points for all other touchdowns scored.
