Steve's Week 4 Rankings

16 ranked teams - Steve Dugas - records through Week 3
Ludke's Merry Men 3-0 Top 3 - 6 Weeks

3-0 and could be on cusp of trotting out their ideal starting lineup for a game or two before bye weeks kick in.

Snapdragons 3-0 Top 3 - 3 Weeks

Boy that was weird when Lawrence took a knee at the one yard line instead of scoring with 8 minutes left in the game.

Asian Orangutangs 2-1 Top 3 - 7 Weeks

Memphis Brothers 2-1 Top 5 - 28 Weeks

How often do you think Bri looks at the 2023 draft and sees he could have had JSN instead Anthony Richardson? I know I still look back to 2021 and wonder what made me take Javonte Williams over Jamaar Chase.

Achane injury is just an absolute stomach punch. Seems like every season NFL injury woes get worse and worse.

Herbert and Montgomery are holding this team back and some changes are going to have to be made. Cutting Cousins and Penix this summer is looking like a terrible idea.

Llamas just have to weather storm one more week and Williams should be back. Even a loss this coming week to the Brothers and I think Llamas will be ok in the end.

The "is Puka Nacua injury serious" discourse has to be driving Kurt nuts.

Not sure which 2024 first rounder is busting worse right now, Odunze, Harrison, or Thomas?....The answer is none of the above, its Worthy.
