🥇 Tier 1 — Championship-Ready
Elite cores, depth, and matchup-proof flexibility.
1. Forge Flyers (Chris) — 5-5, 1066.5 pts
• Why #1: Highest points scored in the league. Mahomes + Bijan + Etienne + AJ Brown + Diggs is a nightmare core. Depth with Javonte and Stevenson means he can absorb injuries.
• Outlook: Record is deceiving — this is the most complete team on paper. Built for December.
2. Great Scott (Geoff) — 10-0, 996.5 pts
• Why #2: Undefeated, anchored by Herbert + CMC + Nacua + Marvin Harrison Jr. + Odunze. Kamara and Kittle add veteran depth.
• Outlook: Slightly less explosive than Chris’s roster, but consistency and balance keep him dominant.
3. Gridiron Gang (Naithan) — 5-5, 1011.0 pts
• Why #3: Lamar Jackson is surging, Gibbs is ascending, Cook is steady, and TreVeyon Henderson adds explosive upside. WRs (Tucker, Wan’Dale) are matchup-dependent, but Jefferson’s return will elevate the roster.
• Outlook: Dangerous playoff team once healthy. Depth makes this roster flexible and resilient.

🥈 Tier 2 — Playoff Locks with Cracks
Strong builds with room to grow or trade into Tier 1.
4. Buccing the Trend (Michael) — 6-4, 1059.0 pts
• Why #4: Chase heating up, Jacobs is a volume monster, Pickens is a sneaky WR2. Prescott is steady.
• Outlook: High floor, but ceiling capped unless he adds another elite piece.
5. Tom’s Tyrants (Tom) — 6-4, 965.9 pts
• Why #5: Barkley + Achane is explosive, Allen + Godwin provide WR stability, Metcalf adds depth.
• Outlook: Needs QB consistency to push higher, but roster is playoff-ready.
6. The Dream Team (Vivek) — 5-5, 937.3 pts
• Why #6: Hurts + Adams is a strong core, RBs (White, Spears, Charbonnet) are young and ascending.
• Outlook: Needs WR consistency to climb, but dangerous if rookies pop.

🥉 Tier 3 — High Variance
Capable of big wins, but vulnerable to volatility.
7. I KNOW SOMETHING (Ben) — 5-5, 973.3 pts
• Why #7: Taylor + Kyren is strong, Addison is emerging, DJ Moore is volatile.
• Impact: Burrow’s season-ending injury is a huge blow — QB streaming caps ceiling.
• Outlook: Still competitive, but no longer Tier 2 without a stable QB.
8. Patistan (Patrick) — 4-6, 974.4 pts
• Why #8: Amon-Ra + Olave are elite WRs, Jeanty is promising.
• Impact: Skattebo’s season-ending injury gutted RB depth.
• Outlook: Needs a waiver miracle or trade to stay alive.
9. Stokes Bay Stackers (Ross) — 5-5, 864.6 pts
• Why #9: Allen + Kelce give positional advantage, Flowers is flashing WR1 upside, Henry still dangerous.
• Outlook: Middling supporting cast keeps him volatile week to week.

🚨 Tier 4 — Rebuild / Salvage Mission
Short on balance or depth; need aggressive moves or lucky pickups.
10. Bear Necessities (Dave) — 2-8, 877.2 pts
• Why #10: Deebo + Worthy are fun, but RBs are thin and QB volatile.
• Outlook: Needs trades to salvage; otherwise spoiler role.
11. Oakland Golden Bears (Freddy) — 2-8, 836.6 pts
• Why #11: Hall + Walker + Pacheco is solid RB trio, but WRs unreliable and Nix risky.
• Outlook: Needs WR1 to climb.
12. Make Kitchens Great Again (Ollie) — 5-5, 749.2 pts
• Why #12: Despite record, points scored are lowest. WRs (Waddle, Lamb) are strong, but RB/QB holes limit upside.
• Outlook: Needs bold trade to stay relevant.

🧠 Final Thoughts
• Top tier (Chris, Geoff, Naithan) are built for December.
• Middle tier (Michael, Tom, Vivek) are playoff locks but need one more move.
• Ben & Patrick took major hits with Burrow and Skattebo out — they’re now volatile wildcards.
• Bottom tier needs trades or waiver miracles.
