Another week of football is in the books. Before we kick everything off again Thursday night, we have a chance to look a little deeper at the snap data.

As you know, the league now makes limited snap data available to everyone in for every game, but only Pro Football Focus can take you far deeper into those numbers and tell you what players were doing on any given snap, where they were lining up and what it means.

So let's take a quick spin around the league and look at some of the more interesting fantasy football stories from the PFF data pile.
