Week 11 Rankings (Playoff Mode)

Image
With the deadline rankings last week, we have entered the stretch run in the Boys League, where the games carry more meaning, not from a mathematical standpoint, but the pressure is building in the minds of our fantasy owners, and each win or loss is vital to their playoff chances and mental wellbeing. In accordance with tradition, the dreaded playoff percentage number returns to the rankings, and will keep track of the status of each team every week to see where they stand, both in terms of 'making it to the dance' and potential playoff seeding. In the words of one fantasy owner, things are about to get "spicy spicy". 1. So...what's going on? (0) The WGO continued their winning ways this week, maintaining an undisputed state of dominion over the rest of the Boys League. Joe Burrow (29.04) and Jameis Winston (26.6) continued their strong fantasy production (both in disappointing losses) and Breece Hall (31.1) lead the team with his two touchdown performance on Sun...

Week X Rankings (And Trade Deadline Analysis!)

Image
We have hit the double digits in matchups in the fantasy season, and are fast approaching  the trade deadline. With such a convergence, you had best believe I was going to acknowledge it with a semi-spefual edition of the Power Rankings. This week, I will provide a look at each team's notable transactions (sponsored by Fox's Fun Facts), as well as a rudimentary address of each team's glaring weakness/biggest need. After Friday, such needs can only be able to be addressed in waivers and prayers to the football gods. Let's get into it, shall we? 1. So...what's going on? (+2) The WGO continued their winning ways this weekend, thanks to the charitable lack of point contribution s from their opponent. The greatness of Joe Burrow (33.72) and Chase Brown (22.4) on an electric TNF was followed by what can only be described as textbook mediocrity. Still, one cannot deny the team the best record and sole possession of a division title it's flowers, so here they sit in our...

Pat's (Belated) Spooktober Rankings

Image
As you might have guess from seeing the title, this article is the work of our own Pat Caughron. Bestow unto him the necessary praise. Spooky season has come and gone, but there are still plenty of things to be afraid of: election outcomes, Justin’s “fun” fact(s) of the day, a white cornerback, Daniel Jones, and always, without fail, the slow, inevitable, inexorable march of the Chief’s towards a three-peat and an undefeated season. In honor of the ghastly, this week’s power rankings will be done based on the “spook factor”* of each team. * Spook factor to be determined to mean whatever the author decides it will be, and may or may not be arbitrarily based on heuristics which the reader may disagree with. To those who disagree with the author, all the author has to say is “boo.” 1. The Pouncing Chubbs Though they do not hold the best record in the league, The Pouncing Chubbs are the only team this season with two performances of 190 or more points (both performances also happened to...

Week 9 Rankings

Image
Now that the Midseason has come and gone, every week brings us closer to the playoffs. Now is the timez gentlemen. Now is when the foot is to be put to the pedal. When backs are put to the wall. When time is said to have a 'crunch' to it. Where the action of push meets with shove. Where you give your Get One for the Gipper speeches, your Miracle monologues, your Remember the Titans rally cries. Where hope and desperation join and become one on the nuptual bed... Wait, no that's Week 13... This segment was supposed to be used in Week 13, dammit. Useless PoS editors, I swear... [Note from the Editor: Dear writer, you forget yourself. You think you are irreplaceable, but I know of two league members who have shown themselves capable of producing respectable power rankings. You'd do well to remember that the power dynamic between us is not one of equals] 1. Got vax? (+1) I'll leave 'em up here, until I can't. Weird to move up a team that lost, and in disappointi...
