Power Rankings
1. Forge Flyers, 7-1 (1): Even in a week where this team was missing 6, count them SIX, players to byes, they still won. No, it wasn't a pretty performance, you'd struggle to do that being down so many players. But the fact coach Leach's side still put up an ok score and brought home the win makes you think this could be a team of destiny. With a 3 game lead and only 6 to go, they've nearly locked up a trip to the dance.
2. Burdettinators, 4-4 (2): Another dirty win, but they all count, and Coach Burdett deserves a few of them considering how the season started for them. Still, the dodgy last few weeks are a bit of an eye raiser. They have the players on the bench, so ultimately you'd expect them to consistently score well, but it's something we're going to have to keep an eye on.
3. Tanky McTankface, 3-5 (7): Coach Merritt moves up to the high spots again, but they still lost last week, and they're running out of chances. At 3-5, I think the team is great. They're finally delivering what we've seen on paper since the draft. However, they're currently 2 games behind the division and the wildcard spot. While not insurmountable, with many competitive teams still above them, they might need a lot to go there way to make the playoffs.
4. ADRZ, 5-3 (9): Boomshakala. That's all I have to say really. But ADRZ's score this week was not only their season best, but a league wide season best. It all fell right for them. And while I think they're a good consistent side, everything fell right for them last week and I'm not sure this is sustainable. But when they're not scoring 155 points, they're still pretty good and have a good chance at playoffs.
5. Patistan, 4-4 (3): Last week was a major down week for Coach Allen, one that has been really out of kilter of their season so far. I expect them to bounce back though, they've got too many good players to be scoring like that each week. Patistan on paper look like a team who should be scoring buckets of points each week, I think they'll get it together.
6. IKSAN, 5-3 (4): This team has changed narratives about 4 times already this season, and here's another: the last 3 weeks IKSAN have been goooood. I was going to put this team at 3 this week because I think they're hear to say...until I woke up to seeing Elliott has been suspended again. While they're certainly more than just Elliott, there's no doubt he's been a pillar of this team, and it takes them down a notch.
7. Gridiron Gang, 5-3 (5): Gridiron Gang have had a lackluster last couple of weeks due to a QB injury and some poor play. That will probably continue into next week with 4 players on a bye and another still out injured. Despite that, Coach Stubbs Jr. has managed to cobble a competitive side together and they remain firmly in the hunt for a playoff spot.
8. The Dream Team, 3-5 (6): It's gone a bit under the radar, but Coach Nathwani has lost his last 4 games now, only topping 90 points in one of them. It's definitely a concern, and a problem we foresaw when Beckham went down. I don't want to say they're out of it as they still have 3 wins at this stage and an ok team, but I just don't think the team has the firepower required to make a comeback at this stage. I think they'll finish well but ultimately just miss out.
9. Bear Necessities, 4-4 (8): So unfortunately, as we all expected, Aaron Rodgers was the straw that broke the camels back for this team. While Big Ben has filled in admirably in his absence, this team needs a great QB to support the rest of the roster. They had a lot of byes this week which didn't help, so they're not quite flat lining, but the prognosis is about 50/50 at this point.
10. Tom's Tyrants, 2-6 (10): Just after we thought Coach Barnes was triggering come back mode...the power got cut in the building. A dismal day, in which the light at the end of the tunnel may have dimmed for this team. 3 games behind in the division and in the wildcard race, I don't think team has the potential to overcome it. They will probably have some good weeks, but I think it's time to hand the fork to Coach Barnes. Stick a fork in 'em, THEY DONE.
11. Cash4Gould, 5-3 (12): Another week, another sub 90 point outing for Coach Gardner. In other news, another win. Go figure. QB has been a problem child for this team so far this season, but inconsistency has been the problem child's big brother. They have some nice shiny players that just aren't delivering the mail, and the supporting cast hasn't picked up the slack so far. Still, at 5-3, they're in a good spot to get hot and roll to the finish.
12. The Southampton Narwhals, 1-7 (11): Coach Nunn's only goal at this point is to win as many games as possible, and avoid having the losingest season of all time (which I believe is either 2-12 or 3-11). They're certainly not hapless. Last week was a bad week, but they've done a really good job of getting a decent amount of points each week. They need an infusion from somewhere to help them though.
