Can anyone Challenge Texas Proud
Other than the one loss due in part to Bye week replacements, and a poor showing from key Players. Texas Proud has appeared totally dominant this Season. The good news is that they can be beaten. The better news is that the cream of the League has risen to the top. This week’s Power Rankings will reflect the sudden success of some of the higher scoring teams.
Power Rankings
1 – Texas Proud
Currently ranked 1rst overall with a 7-1 record, and 1007.23 total points for the Season.
Texas Proud is just flat out dominant. They have star Players at each and every position. At Quarterback they have Drew Brees. At Running Back they have Kareem Hunt. At Wide Receiver they have DeAndre Hopkins, at Tight End they have Travis Kelce. Even their Defence is solid with the Broncos. They obviously remain the team to beat.
2 – The Bottom Feeders
Currently ranked 6th overall with a 4-4 record, and 888.87 total points for the Season.
Don’t let their name fool you. The Bottom Feeders are stacked with top tier talent. They are the closest in roster quality to Texas Proud. Kirk Cousins at QB, Ezekiel Elliot at RB, A.J. Green at WR, and Zach Ertz at TE is enough to match up well against anyone. Picking the top two teams for this week’s Power Rankings was relatively easy.
3 – Raider in the North
Currently ranked 3rd overall with a 4-4 record, and 752.13 total points for the Season.
This was the first difficult position in the Rankings to figure out. With LeSean McCoy, Tyreek Hill, and Rob Gronkowski as their star players for the majority of the Season. Raider in the North is obviously competitive. It was the recent addition of Jerick McKinnon that has moved them up to number 3 in the Power Rankings. Do not underestimate this team. They have the potential to win it all.
4 – Cobe Life
Currently ranked 5th overall with a 4-4 record, and 897.05 total points for the Season.
Why am I ranking my team fourth? The only team that has scored more points than mine is Texas Proud. Tom Brady, Le’Veon Bell, and Chris Thompson have kept me competitive. Recent injuries have left me with a question mark at Wide Receiver. Can Fitzgerald, Diggs, or Garcon return to early Season form? At least one of them will have to if I’m to stand a chance at winning the championship. Still the Brady and Bell combination just scares everyone. Well everyone except Texas Proud, and The Bottom Feeders.
5 – Aegon Targaryan
Currently ranked 2nd overall with a 6-2 record, and 847.98 total points for the Season.
It’s all about their two Running Backs Todd Gurley, and Carlos Hyde. They have simply been stellar. Although they haven’t posted too many breakout games their Wide Receiver corps are sneaky good as well. All it would take is just one or two of them to start playing to their potential for Aegon Targaryan to win the championship.
6 – In Dak we Trust
Currently ranked 8th overall with a 3-5 record, and 769.88 total points for the Season.
How is it that I’m rating a team with a losing record so high. Well In Dak we Trust has Alex Smith, Mark Ingram, and Antonio Brown for starters. A fresh Doug Martin makes his team just a little stronger, and he has Christian McCaffrey as a solid backup, or flex play. They are so stacked at Running Back that it wouldn’t surprise me if a key trade can further improve this team before the Playoffs.
7 – Geezer Domination
Currently ranked 5th overall with a 4-4 record, and 787.03 total points for the Season.
Geezer Domination has had a very up, and down Season due to injuries, and quality acquisitions. Deshaun Watson, and Will Fuller make for a potentially strong 1-2 punch. Jordan Howard, and Devonta Freeman provide him with a strong duo of Running Backs. Another strong Wide Receiver might be all this team needs to make a strong push to go deep into the playoffs.
8 – Muh Feelins
Currently ranked 11th overall with a 3-5 record, and 695.43 total points for the Season.
Another team with a losing record that still has an outside chance of getting into the playoffs. Russell Wilson is just beginning to hit his stride, and Leonard Fournette should be ready to come back strong after a couple weeks of rest. Muh Feelins really needs to upgrade at Wide Receiver to hope to compete. If they can get into the playoffs there’s a slim chance that they could get David Johnson back from injury.
9 – Watch it Burn
Currently ranked 4th overall with a 4-4 record, and 700.18 total points for the Season.
The fourth overall team comes in at ninth in my Power Rankings! Well here’s why. The team is full of good players, but not great ones. Injuries have limited the potential success of some of their key players going forward. Although they are relatively well balanced, their team lacks big play Fantasy potential.
10 – Justice league of America
Currently ranked 12th overall with a 3-5 record, and 771.59 total points for the Season.
Yes they are the last place team in the league but that doesn’t necessarily make them the worst. Recent acquisitions have really bolstered their roster, and they actually have a very good group of Wide Receivers to go with Carson Wentz at Quarterback. When you have nothing to lose, you are free to make gutsy line up calls. A couple quick wins and Justice league of America could be right back in it. Keep in mind that their team has actually scored more points than half the teams in the league. Their record is not a fair representation of their potential.
11 – Breton
Currently ranked 10th overall with a 3-5 record, and 636.10 points for the Season.
Maybe the recent Ajayi trade to Philly will improve things for Breton. Outside of Dak Prescott, and Alvin Kamara there isn’t much to be excited about on their team. They are the lowest scoring team in the league. The only reason they aren’t at the bottom of the Rankings is because their team is healthier than the last placed team in the Rankings.
12 – Ball Breakerz
Currently ranked 9th overall with a 3-5 record, and 700.07 total points for the Season.
Somebody has to be last, and Ball Breakerz is definitely it. The highlight on their team is Aaron Rodgers, and well he’s basically done for the Season. His backup Quarterback is Matt Stafford and he isn’t exactly 100% either. His best Wide Receiver is T.Y. Hilton but without Andrew Luck feeding him the ball his ceiling is limited. Basically anything that could go wrong for Ball Breakerz has gone wrong.
It’s far from over
The reality is that not one single team is statistically eliminated. Everyone can still make the playoffs. Sure there are favourites, but this is football, and anything can happen. Make the right trade, or pick up the right Player off the waiver wire, and you could finish the Season as the Champion.
