Power Rankings

Week 9


It’s been far too long my lovelies, and I truly do apologize for my absence. I have neglected my poor minions, and they have pined for my written word. But! Wait no longer for I have returned with beautiful words for all. This season hath been a rollercoaster of scoring and suffrage so far. We are careening toward another great playoff race and I couldn’t be more thrilled. For this version of The Commish’s Special Power Rankings Inc., I’m also including each team’s current playoff seeding based on standings at the bottom of each ranking. I can smell the controversy brewing already! But please try to ease your mind with the fact that these rankings are based on a super complex formula created by the Commish inside the greatest super computer he could possibly ever obtain… His brain.


#1

Jeremy (6-2, 1st Mountain)

I have three words to help sum up this team’s dominate performance so far: Jaxon Smith-Njigba. There is a decent amount of depth on this roster, but without JSN’s staggering 30.0 PPG, Weiner Dog Man would be sitting in a much different position in the standings and rankings. I will also give credit to this team’s three-headed RB monster of D’Andre Swift, Jonathan Taylor, and Bucky Irving who have also helped spark the current 4 game winning streak. We’ve seen Jeremy in this position many times in the regular season, so despite this ranking I’m still a bit skeptical if he can keep it up.

Playoff Seeding: #1


#2

Chris (5-3, 2nd Mountain)

I think this truly might be the most dangerous team coming down the stretch toward the playoffs. Ew… I can’t believe I just wrote that out loud… But nevertheless it’s true. The Shitheel has built himself quite the squad of scorers led by Kenneth Walker III and Ja’Marr Chase. AND any time Chris sports Mahomes on his roster, it’s usually a fruitful marriage. He’s currently on a little 2 game win streak, blowing out his opponents by 40 and 60 points respectively. The only real problem I see is that he does sport quite a few players from the same teams. Hopefully those teats don’t run dry!

Playoff Seeding: #4


#3

Scott (6-2, 3rd Mountain)

Why would I put Chris ahead of Scott if they played and Scott already won??? Well that’s because this is Power Rankings NOT standings, and I said so!!! And, that game was weeks ago before Scott started to underperform. This squad is also one I have my eye on as a contender down the stretch. Brock Purdy and Puka Nacua are definitely the anchors of this team, but Javonte Williams has been clutch in big games as well this year. Oh yeah I almost forgot that he also has the Steelers D/ST which has scored below 20 only ONCE this year. I think this roster top to bottom might be the most steadfast and consistent. AJ Brown was a huge swing and miss so far though so suck on that!

Playoff Seeding: #3


#4

Josh (5-3, 1st Pacific)

After a HOT start by Joshy GM, the engines have seemed to cool a bit and brought him back to reality. His skill players are off the chart led by Bijan Robinson, Aman-Ra St. Brown, and Justin Jefferson. BUT the QB position has been oh so hit or miss for this squad. I never thought I’d have to say that Justin Herbert might have been a bust of a draft pick. What reality are we in??? Josh started the year 4-1, but has dropped 2 of his last 3 games including a humiliating defeat to Laura where he only scored 135 measly points. I do think this team has one of the highest potentials for a playoff run, but will the stars ever align for him to reach that ultimate goal?

Playoff Seeding: #2


#5

Commish (4-4, 2nd Pacific)

The Commish has begun his late season surge at the seemingly perfect time. No, he has not beaten any of the top ranked teams this year yet. But, a slew of victories over the bottom-feeders has given him 3 wins in the last 4 games and kept his confidence high. His quest for immortality to repeat as Champ and be the first to secure four league championships is still well within reach. The last time Commish rostered the Tiger King, Joe Burrow, it was the beginning of his dynasty. He also has his MVP from last year’s championship run, James Cook. Seems like the perfect little storm, eh?

Beware… Winter is coming…

Playoff Seeding: #5


#6

Laura (4-4, 3rd Pacific)

Twas a disastrous season last year for the Witch. But, the winds have changed, and she has seemingly conjured some more fruitful fantasy magic and better management practices for her team this year. After an 0-2 start and a stretch where I think literally every player on her roster carried an injury designation, Laura has won 4 of her last 6 games and squarely in the middle of playoff positioning. This squad is really top-heavy with Jahmyr Gibbs accounting for a staggering 33.0 PPG, and the high ceiling scoring combo of Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb. After that it’s really a mixed bag. There’s a lot of potential for a playoff run, but depth is going to be tested down the stretch. Also, under my own will with absolutely no coercion I think she’s actually my favorite to win it all this year.

(HELP ME)

#7

Jake (4-4, 4th Mountain)

The Wizard again finds himself in the land of mediocrity as he tries to convince himself otherwise. AND, back to back losses against the household of the Commish and the Witch has got to be brutal to the psyche. Ok, ok, this team isn’t that terrible. It is bottom 3 in scoring to this point, but he honestly has a lot of explosive players with big scoring potential including CMC, Jayden Daniels, and Christian Watson. Jake also did secure huge wins this year so far against each of the top three in these rankings to show maybe his team does have a chance once the playoffs roll around. Never count out a Billings Boy!

Playoff Seeding: #7


#8

Kyle (3-5, 5th Mountain)

Kyle is barely hanging on to a playoff berth right now, but with how bad the other two teams are below him he might be ok. Actually, he’s currently 5th in scoring thanks in part to winning 3 of his last 4 games whilst averaging over 200 PPG. And that was after starting the year 0-4! Trey McBride also might be a cheat code at TE. Lamar Jackson was a big loss to this squad, but Kyle decided to finally draft depth at QB, and he should be just fine with Drake Maye and CJ Stroud at the helm for the rest of this year. I’m kind of talking myself into picking this team as my dark horse contender for a deep playoff run. That’s a crazy person decision, right???

Playoff Seeding: #8


#9

Nam (1-7, 5th Pacific)

Poor Nam. Despite actually drafting live for once, and getting one of the best QB combinations with former MVPs Josh Allen and Matt Stafford, he hasn’t won a damn game since Week 2! He also has Travis Kelce, Saquon Barkley, and George Pickens on this cursed team! How has it not won any games??? Truly mind blowing. I didn’t rank Nam dead last because when the planets finally do align he might score so many points that they are coming out of his ass and mouth at the same time. There’s a sliver of hope for this big red dog yet.

Playoff Seeding: #10


#10

Austin (2-6, 4th Pacific)

Is Krampus Magic dead??? This might be one of the most putrid teams I’ve ever seen on a fantasy football field let alone just Austin’s worst output. We might see the lowest scoring team in a season ever if Krampus doesn’t awaken from his seasonal slumber soon. I’ll level with him here, it’s the kid ain’t it? Not so easy to set a lineup or finish elaborate write-ups with a little gremlin to take care of huh??? The only player worth mentioning on this team is the Iceman, Caleb Williams. At least he got that right!

Playoff Seeding: #9


Who will reign supreme this week and boost their ranking??? Who will fall??? Only the football gods know. May the odds be ever in your favor…
