POWER RANKINGS - WEEK 9, 2009
Week
Year

1

Thugs 11-2

Still the team to beat right now, despite losing to the Tangs. We’ll know what the real Thugs look like after these next three tough games...


2

Mallards 9-4

Did the Thugs have something to do with Daniels going down for the year? Why else would they pick up a second high quality TE, other than to keep him from their foe in the NFC?


3

Llamas 10-3

This title contender may not need RB depth at the moment, not when they’re getting TD passes from two different players (Brees and Addai). In reality: Depth at the RB position would help Gibby feel better about the coffee he’s brewing.


4

2
Refugees 7-6

Has Aceto acquired the final piece of the Refugees championship puzzle? Aceto pulls the right strings at just the right time and has a tough team in his corner.


5

1
Poop 7-6

Wake up Bri, last week’s nightmare is over. Brady was just off because of a bye, not an injury. The P#op train rolls into Thug town with a full arsenal, but is it enough without a real #2 RB and no TE?


6

4
Dragons 7-6

This team is baaaack. But can they survive an incredibly tough end of season schedule?


7

Eaters 6-7

Romo’s resurgence is keeping the Eaters in the playoff hunt.


8

White Guys 5-8

Still alive, for now. IF they can hold up without a QB this week, they could make things interesting in the NFC wild card hunt as their schedule has them not playing a team over .500 the rest of the way out.


9

4
Boys 4-9

Where did Eli go? This team needs a WR or two - playing with a weak group of WRs week-in-and-week-out can hurt, even with one of the best young RB stables. Rumor: Davidson brothers thinking of pulling another trade together.


10

4
Beans 6-7

A loss this week and they are back to earth, but for now, enjoy the ride.


11

Brothers 5-8

They don’t seem to want the NFC West crown even though it really is theirs for the taking.


12

Huskers 5-8

If this WR group that looks good on paper can start to perform on the field, the NFC West may be theirs when the music stops.


13

Chickens 8-5

Injuries, dramatically fading veteran stars, and now a nice trade on the surface looking sour after its first week... When is the 2010 draft again?


14

5
Buddies 6-7

8 points. 8 points. 8 points!!! Did Halloween help turn the Manning curse over to the Buddies?


15

Merry Men 4-9

Could be poised to make a run up the lower third of the rankings. It will be determined if that is true this weekend as the O-Tang Clan comes to town.


16

Orangutangs 4-9

Still hung over from last week’s celebrating. Does Percy Harvin have another sucker punch for Steve?
