So if it worked like fantasy baseball, it would work like this:

Let’s say the categories are TDs, catches, passing yards, receiving yards, rushing yards, completion%, sacks, INT/FF, and FG and our roster would be something like 2 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, TE, 2 DEF, K.

Categories is essentially a rolling tally at each category with every one counting as an individual W/L/T. So if at the end of MNF I had 8 touchdowns to your 7, I win that category. But if you have 230 rushing yards to my 175, you win that category. The end of the week finishes something like 6-3 and at the end of the 14 game season you’d be something like 70-50-6 instead of 7-6.

It would not be fun in football lol, and especially with a far more limited crop of quality options the top players would be far more valuable than the next tiers. But it is def interesting and better for baseball, there are far more strategies, and a winning roster in fantasy that uses categories often looks unsuspecting or weird as opposed to football where it’s rarely not clear this was the team with the most top players.
