Touchdown Dance Denise came out swinging and grabbed the AFC Week 1 scoring crown with a massive 149.96 points. Kenneth Walker led the charge with 32.6, while Jonathan Taylor added 23.6.

And Denise could have done even more damage — Jalen Coker scored 29.8 points while sitting on the bench.

COMMISSIONER NOTES

Week 1 gave us huge scores, superstar disappearing acts, monster bench performances, and one nail-biter.

It’s only Week 1. Nobody panic.

Well… maybe Richard can panic a little about Ja’Marr Chase.

Good luck in Week 2!
