Power Rankings WEEK 4!!
And here we are... 25% of the way through the season and some things are very clear... Neal is running off with the lead and a 4-0 start. And is starting to pull away from the rest of the pack with some very good performances.
Yes sir. Its looking tough to beat the old Fightin' Calvins these days, yet on the other side of the spectrum, Jon and Monica together own just one win thus far... the lone win coming from Backus in a showdown with Monica. Looks like Fantasy Football doesn't mix well with Hockey and... well I'm not quite sure what Monica's excuse was this week...
The rest however is still up in the air, as Josh, Colleen, Eric, Kevin and Jared are all separated by a mere 6 Power Points in the latest poll... meaning these five come next week could get re-jumbled up, once again.
All we can really dictate are trends. Colleen is on a .500 looking pace, but still getting some valuable point production. Josh, other than a loss to Colleen in what was a monster weekend for her, is cruising now, with solid back-to-back wins, and Eric really blasted out this week with a 139 point performance, the largest thus far into the fantasy football season.
Despite a loss, Kevin is still putting up some valuable points. The real question in this group is how Jared is going to fare down the stretch. The lowest ranked of the so-called "Jumbled Five," the run game is inept, and WR's talented, but shaky where fantasy point value is concerned.
Either way, this promises to be a tough stretch in the coming days, and the Jumbled Five will get a chance to knock each other in the mouths in the coming weeks, jumbling this poll even further.
1. Neal (4-0)
Credit given where its due, this team just seems to keep doling the points every single week. Just when you thought Ray Rice struggled and the Calvins looked fairly beatable, in marches Matt Ryan and AJ Green to save the day.
2. Josh (3-1)
Amazing to think Josh was a CJ Spiller raping away from being undefeated too, but to his defense, his team hasn't looked bad all season, putting up at minimum 99 points in every single game.
3. Colleen (2-2)
Colleen's team did just enough to beat a team that, save Aaron Rogers and Texans D performances, looked pretty suspect in Week 4. But 114 points is hard to turn your nose up at. Watch out for the Pet it it Grews next week against Monica in the first ever Estrogen Bowl, presented by Monistat-3!
T-4. Eric (2-2)
Holy San Francisco D!! But it didn't end there. The run game was extremely solid, the recievers were stellar and RG3 went RG3 on Tampa Bay. Great momentum type win for the Vicks in a Box, going up against a struggling one-win Backus Squad.
T-4. Kevin (2-2)
Scoring over 100 points in a contest and STILL losing blows, no matter who you are. None the less, Kevin gets to set his sights on Jared next week in a match up with a Glicked-Up squad that's dropped two in a row.
6. Jared (2-2)
Its never fun to lose to your girlfriend in fantasy football. Whats worse, she really has no idea how it happened, and that it just happened because your team was just bad enough. The running game was and could continue to be atrocious. Back to the drawing board...
7. Backy-Man (1-3)
The decision to play an NHL season or not couldn't come any sooner for Jon. This team, that started out with much promise behind stars like Tom Brady, Adrian Peterson and Andre Johnson has started to decline over the last couple weeks, and a match up with Eric off a 139 point game is NOT what the Doctor ordered.
8. Monica (OH-FER)
Technically, this wasn't even a terrible game. She still put up 84 points and had a decent showing from Matt Stafford. But arguably her best week comes at the hands of a 139 point winner, and still was the least amount of points scored league wide... Poor luck Zeebie.
