1.) Da Moon’s Huge Craters
Overall Record: 7-1
Divisional Record: 4-0
Total Points Scored: 769.4
Position Last Week: 1
Notes: The Craters take down the #2 seed in dominant fashion on the heels of another dominant Matt Stafford performance and a two touchdown performance from Joe Mixon who has played his way into top 5 RB status.
2.) Lin Sanity
Overall Record: 6-2
Divisional Record: 3-1
Total Points Scored: 733.3
Position Last Week: 5
Notes: Lin Sanity takes the biggest leap in the power rankings jumping all the way to #2 and seizing control of the vaunted FFC West with a strong win over the juggernaut Pool of the Dead and claim a very important head to head tiebreaker that may have implications down the road.
3.) Gandalf the Goat
Overall Record: 6-2
Divisional Record: 3-1
Total Points Scored: 719.3
Position Last Week: 2
Notes: There was nothing bad about this game from the Goat but they just simply ran into one of the few teams who scored more points than them. Look for Josh Allen and Darrel Henderson to continue driving this team to the playoffs.
4.) Korriban Warriors
Overall Record: 5-3
Divisional Record: 3-1
Total Points Scored: 733.7
Position Last Week: 7
Notes: The Warriors victory launches them into a three way tie for the division lead and due to their strong head start keep them atop the pack for now. Jonathan Taylor’s explosion in year 2 is starting to look like an elite first round running back for many years to come.
5.) Sacramento Wolf Pack
Overall Record: 5-3
Divisional Record: 3-1
Total Points Scored: 687.9
Position Last Week: 4
Notes: The Wolf Pack have their first real bad week of the whole season in Week 8 and it cost them a top 4 seed, but I expect such a well balanced team to bounce back and stay competitive in the division race until the end.
6.) Pool of the Dead
Overall Record: 5-3
Divisional Record: 2-2
Total Points Scored: 810.4
Position Last Week: 3
Notes: The most devastating blow to bloody Sunday was the loss of Derrick Henry for 6-10 weeks. As the King rests his foot for an NFL playoff run, the biggest question of Week 9 is how will the Pool of the Dead playoff aspirations shift with this news?
7.) Jedi Knights
Overall Record: 5-3
Divisional Record: 1-3
Total Points Scored: 625.1
Position Last Week: 6
Notes: An impressive stat to show how resurgent this team has been: the Jedi Knights are the only team to sweep the other division 4-0 in intra-divisional play from Weeks 5-8.
8.) Hot Pocket Hot Locket
Overall Record: 4-4
Divisional Record: 2-2
Total Points Scored: 567.2
Position Last Week: 9
Notes: It was ugly but a win is a win and HPHL stay on the wildcard bubble with a close win. Justin Herbert, a few games removed from his 50 bomb in Week 5, will look to bounce back in a good matchup against the Eagles.
9.) Bruce Almightys
Overall Record: 4-4
Divisional Record: 1-3
Total Points Scored: 682.7
Position Last Week: 11
Notes: With Baker Mayfield’s decline this season and injury potential, managing the quarterback matchups and possibly utilizing rookie QB Justin Fields down the road will be the ultimate x-factor for this squad’s rest of season outlook.
10.) Uur UPS
Overall Record: 4-4
Divisional Record: 2-2
Total Points Scored: 692.3
Position Last Week: 8
Notes: The more I see of Austin Ekeler and Najee Harris this late into the season, the more I like this team’s core to be the strongest of the entire league.
11.) Ernie’s Rubber Duckies
Overall Record: 3-5
Divisional Record: 2-2
Total Points Scored: 652
Position Last Week: 12
Notes: The third year breakout of Deebo Samuel continues to carry this team and it was nice to also see a big game from Amari Cooper.
12.) SLAM BALL 2K21
Overall Record: 3-5
Divisional Record: 2-2
Total Points Scored: 587.3
Position Last Week: 10
Notes: 2022 draft looking really nice right now.
13.) Elk Grove Spartans
Overall Record: 2-6
Divisional Record: 2-2
Total Points Scored: 633.7
Position Last Week: 13
Notes: The Spartans have dropped four in a row and the outlook looks bleak with the Aaron Rodgers “immunized” debacle jeopardizing his status in the immediate future.
14.) Mahomies Deezflated Nuts
Overall Record: 2-6
Divisional Record: 1-3
Total Points Scored: 642.6
Position Last Week: 14
Notes: Tough loss for the MD Nuts who saw Dak Prescott as a late scratch in the week.
15.) Dr. Jenious
Overall Record: 2-6
Divisional Record: 1-3
Total Points Scored: 545.6
Position Last Week: 15
Notes: Not much to look forward to besides a potential Patrick Mahomes come back for the ages in the second half of the NFL season.
16.) Philippines Garbage Dumps
Overall Record: 1-7
Divisional Record: 0-4
Total Points Scored: 443.6
Position Last Week: 16
Notes: The PGD may have found their solution at QB with Daniel Jones but without some big Dalvin Cook games this team is going nowhere fast.
