JFCS Power Rankings


The formula has been modified.  I think it's better.  Here are the new rankings:

12. Black Angus  - 7.396
There might be a new curse akin to the Madden or SI cover curse.  Being a running back owned by Spike.  Add Mike James to the long list of Spike’s RBs that have been injured this year.  With only 2 wins through 10 games in a season plagued by injuries, it’s time to start rebuilding for next year.  Hopefully at least one of his RBs will stay healthy.  Hey at least the Rams looked awesome on Sunday.

11. Reynosa El Torro Loco    9.092666667
Big win over Brady this week knocked Brady from 3rd to 8th in ESPNs playoff projection.  Matty B also improved from 11th to 10th in said rankings thanks to 18 points from the Giant’s D.  Andre Johnson seems to have turned it on lately, but it appears to be too little too late to rescue Reynosa’s playoff hopes.

10. Sandusky's Tight Ends   9.493333333
Steven Jackson sucks this year.  Injury to Aaron Rogers really hurts.  Randall Cobb’s been out for weeks.  Had to trade for Andy Dalton.  Unlucky year for Ty.  He had been putting up impressive wins, but this week fell from last-team-in to first-team-out.  Hope is not lost however, with a matchup against the worst team in the league this week.  The last week is an uphill battle, facing the second highest scoring team in the league: Little Chicago Criminals.

9. Skittles Taste Dwayne Bowe        10.01466667
Moved up from 10th JFCS team last week.  This week’s loss was a huge one for Mike.  Jamal Charles’ (#1 RB in the league) bye week ended up being a wedding gift to Rosey Cheeks.  With Romo on bye this week, it’ll be tough to get a needed win against Brady.

8. Houston Heat         10.67
Still in the playoff hunt, but it’ll be a tough road through Mike and Austin.  Moved down 2 spots in the JFCS and 5 spots in ESPNs playoff projections.  The current two game losing streak is really hurting Brady’s playoff chances.  It seems fair though:  He has 8th most points scored and just happens to come in 8th in both the JFCS and playoff projections.

7. Salt Lake Mountaineers    11.43466667
Fourth most points scored.  Ninth in ESPN playoff projections.  Regretting keeping Trent Richardson.  Obviously looking ahead to next year.

6. The Ansah  11.97333333
Bounced from 2nd to 6th in the JFCS rankings after a win, but still a player in the playoff picture.  New formula must not like Nick’s stats.  Honestly, Nick’s 5-5 record is impressive, considering he has more points against than 9 other teams in the league.

5. NSL Knights           12.04266667
Matt sits in first place in the weaker division with only 2 games to go.  Could he miss playoffs?  It’s certainly possible.  In fact, even two wins doesn’t guarantee a playoff spot since Jared could overtake him for first in the division and the stronger division could have 3 teams make playoffs.  The bad news? Matt plays the seemingly unbeatable Taylor this week. The good news?  Matt finishes the season against Spike, the worst team in the league.  The worst news?  Spike almost always beats Matt in head to head matchups.

4. Draft Champion    12.17666667
Previous ranking 8th.  Huge jump with the new formula.  Ranks second in the division but outranks Matt (the division leader) in the JFCS.  6-4 record is super impressive since Jared is the front runner for the pity award, by a lot.  His playoff hopes are very alive and there are a few scenarios that let him in.  He needs wins against Matty B and Mike for his best chance.

3. Auty 2 Hottie         12.90133333
Moved up two spots in the JFCS.  Huge win against Matt this week.  Good thing Matt’s QB threw all his TDs to Austin’s WR.  Ray Rice is bad, but it doesn’t matter with Zac Stacy and Stevan Ridley tearin it up.  Austin’s team is scary good going into the final two weeks of the season.

2.  Little Chicago Criminals   13.31166667
How is Dane 5-5?  How is he 7th in the playoff projections?  Dane is outscoring the projected number 2 seed by over 100 points this season but he is 3 games out of first in his division.  He could miss playoffs as the second highest scoring team in the league.  Problem is: he also has second most points against.

1. Attack of the Marshawns 14.328
This week Taylor broke 100 for the 4th time this season.  He is the only team that has clinched a playoff spot.  He has the most points for and the second fewest points against.  His lineup is ridiculously good.  With nothing left to play for in the regular season, and matchups against two desperate teams, it’ll be interesting to see how it plays out.  Unless something drastic happens, my money’s on Taylor.
