Very tired. Must rest. 1. Flying Geckos (0) Playoffs: Clinched divison STUD: Dak Prescott 🤮 (32.24) DUD: Saquon Barkley (6.2) 2.

Week 11 Rankings

Football happened this week. Many much football occurred. So let's talk about it. 1. Flying Geckos (0) Playoffs: Clinched Division The Geckos took care of business this week, leaving no doubt as to who would wear the laurel of the East come Week 15. Rumor has it that the proud owner of this expansion franchise is all ready to hibernate his team come playoff time. So there's one interesting storyline to keep an eye on. STUD: Saquon Barkley (30.0) DUD: Deebo Samuel (9.2) 2. Got vax? (+1) Playoffs: 99 % Division:  41.9% The Vax reinserted themselves into the conversation with a victory this weekend (albeit a less than exciting one). With a little help from their friends, this squad pulled back into a tie for first in the West, and with a matchup against that very team, their destiny is in their own hands. They just need a new tight end. STUD: Brock Purdy (26.72) DUD: Mark Andrews (4.3) ðŸ’€ 3. Goff My Lawn Guy (-1) Playoffs: 98 % Division:  44.6% The Lawn Guys have hit some tr...

The Double Digits Special (Week 10) Rankings

Image
That's right, boys and girls , it's the 10th week of fantasy football in the books, which means the 10th edition of the power rankings is here, which means that things are finally heating up, even as the weather cools down. It has been a tradition in this time of the season  for me to add some spice to the late season stress and shenanigans by presenting every team's playoff odds for the remainder of the season. In the past, I have used somewhat faulty systems that were largely the work of other creators, which ended up giving certain individuals cause for great pride when they overcame seemingly incredible odds to reach the Promised Land (of getting bounced in the first round of the playoffs). This year, I have and am taking steps to make the numbers a better reflection of what to expect in the next few weeks, with the ever-obvious stipulation that much of these numbers are based up the projections of the Yahoos , so the proposed account presented here is exponentially mor...

Pain... There is Only Pain... (Week 9 Rankings)

Image
It was such a good run, getting these out to you guys without fail, every Wednesday. Unfortunately, circumstances came in the way this week. The streak is over. 1. Goff My Lawn Guy (0) But here is someone whose streak was kept alive this week, albeit not in the most impressive fashion. Nevertheless, a win is a win, and that makes 6 in a row for the Lawn Guys, who maintain their first place position while entering into a virtual tie for best record in the league. It's good to be the king . STUD: Josh Allen (25.72) keeps on keeping on, at least when it comes to fantasy production, as after 9 weeks he is still the QB1 in fantasy. It's good to be king . DUD: The Seattle Seahawks (Smith & Metcalf combined for 9.68 points) didn't give their fans or fantasy owners much to cheer about in a blowout loss. Oof. 2. So...what's going on? (+1) The WGO got back to their winning ways this week, even in a less than stellar performance. Back above .500 is a nice position to be in, e...

A Somewhat Spooky Rankings (Week 8)

Image
Happy Halloween y'all! As a proper send-off to the Spooktober month, we had a few Horror-ful results and Phantom-tastic performances, capped of by the NFL and fantasy Week 8. It was a week full of blowouts (it would be more and less appropriate to say that it was a week full of teams blowing, but I like to consider this a family-friendly rankings), and after some wound-licking, it is time to see how everyone started off the second half of their fantasy seasons. 1. Goff My Lawn Guy (0) While this team may have skeletons on their bench (and a few in their favorite college football team's closet to boot), the Lawn Guys continue to ride high after a fifth consecutive victory. Now in sole possession of first in the West, this team is now living proof that sometimes you just need a few (very) good apples to unspoil the whole bunch. STUD: AJ Brown (33.0) & Josh Allen (30.06) both had 30 point performances to carry the team to another victory. I hope they put ice on those backs dur...
