Steve's Week 7 Rankings

16 ranked teams - Steve Dugas - records through Week 6
Older Newer
High 5'n White Guys 6-0 Top 3 - 6 Weeks

Weekly scoring has been trending down, but looking at their schedule I now think they can get to 11 wins.

Point Diff. +112

Cuban Refugees 6-0 Top 3 - 5 Weeks

Also have a great shot at 11 wins and have been consistently putting up big weeks. I still think they are being a bit too complacent by sticking with Siemian.

Point Diff. +97

Fightin' Mallards 3-3 Top 5 - 2 Weeks

Carson Wentz's 94 points through the first 6 games have pushed Ryan right off the roster. His reckless style of play does make him a big injury risk. This team should get on a nice roll.

Big Boys 3-3 Top 5 - 3 Weeks

No shame in losing to the Refugees. Should be able to get back on track versus the Merry Men this week.

Ludke's Merry Men 5-1

5-1 start is great but entering a brutal 6 game stretch. Boys, Refugees, Bear, Dragons, Eaters, Buddies before finishing up with the Thugs. Likely need to win 3 of these games to make playoffs.

Burger Buddies 3-3

With the way the RBs and Watson are playing I think it might be time for them to go all in and get a WR and become a full fledged title contender.

Apple Eaters 2-4

Finally broke that 4 game losing streak. Not much room left for error this season.

Snapdragons 2-3-1

Matt Ryan is not going to replace Aaron Rodgers by any means, though the Falcons do have the NFL's easiest remaining schedule. Perhaps Ryan gets traded again if the Dragons drop a couple more games before the deadline.

Mexican Beans 3-3

The best part of the homepage gif this week is Bobby having no idea Mike called him out.

Chunky Chickens 2-3-1

Haven't won since week 2 and Nick hasn't texted me in weeks. I hope he is ok. Also these Nicks picks are getting so brief I'm ready any week for each one to be less than a full sentence.

Bear Poop 2-4

2-0 when Brady has 3+ TDs. 0-4 when Brady has 2 or fewer.

UCornn Huskers 2-4

It was decided you can just cut Joe Flacco Kevin, and we weren't sure anyone would claim him on waivers.

Memphis Brothers 2-4

Thanks to Palmer they were able to knock off the Thugs despite starting Beckham who broke his ankle a week earlier. Palmer to the Refugees?

Asian Orangutangs 1-5

Schedule isn't easing up but Dak should be able to keep them from losing 10 games.

Market Thugs 2-4

Staying well ahead of the the points scored pace for worst team in modern scoring era, but a few more weeks like last week and we will have to put them back on the watch list.
