Hello everyone! Things are really heating up in the A-Town Fantasy Football League. All but three teams are still within 3 games of the division lead. We have ten teams that are .500 or better. The second half race is really heating up. This week I went back and looked at where I have ranked every team each week so far this year. This will show you each teams trend and show you who is really on a roll right now and who has the most inconsistent teams.
1. Pat
Previous (9,3,5,2,4,8,3,2)
Pat has been one of the most consistent teams this year. He has put up the high week in three straight weeks now. I will halve to check the archive but I believe that is a A-Town record. Pat’s team seems to have no weakness. The only thing that could derail this team is the Saints bye in week 10.
2. Chris
Previous (8,12,6,6,6,3,4,4)
Chris has been on me to get him in the top 2 for a long time now and in week 9 he finally gets his wish. I have no choice but to believe in this team now. In our most competitive season yet, Chris has won 7 in a row and has a 2 game lead in his division. Will someone ever take down Chris?
3. Dan
Previous (1,1,1,1,1,2,2,1)
Dan is a lot like the Colts. You give them credit and respect all the time because they are always one of the top teams. I realized this and have ranked Dan out of the top two for the first time all season. I understand that Dan was missing White and Smith last week. I am just not convinced right now that Dan’s team is who they were at the beginning of the season. On a positive note, Matt Stafford looks like a very adequate replacement for Romo.
4. Garret
Previous (2,6,3,3,3,7,5,3)
Garret has been a top team all year. His team is very talented and has plenty of depth. Marshall needs to start finding the end zone and the emergence of Arian Foster has taken away from Schaub’s pass attempts. Garret had a rough game in week 8, but I look for him to bounce back strong in week 9.
5. Logan
Previous (7,9,9,9,13,14,11,5)
Logan has scored the least amount of points and is 13th in CBS power rankings. Yet I have lost my mind and ranked him in the top 5 for the second week in a row. Logan started out very slow, but he made a great trade for McFadden and Lloyd, two of this year’s most surprising and best players. The Kenny Brit injury is going to sting, but Jackson will be back this week after suffering a concussion. Logan also has a very favorable schedule coming up.
6. Alex
Previous (13,11,14,14,14,13,9,7)
Alex has won 4 in a row and is a team to be reckoned with. I feel embarrassed because of where I ranked him the first 6 weeks of the year. Alex told me he was going to use that as fuel to be a top team and that’s exactly what he’s doing. Alex has some tough bye week guys this week so it will be interesting to see if he can fight through adversity and get that winning streak to 5.
7. Pop
Previous (14,14,12,8,5,5,7,9)
Pop’s doesn’t have the most talented team in the league, but he finds guys that can be productive. He has a very strong defense and the hottest kicker in the league. A lot of teams don’t worry too much about their defense and kicker, but it can make all the difference on Sunday. This team is very scrappy and will give you a fight every week.
8. Clay
Previous (10,4,4,7,7,6,8,10)
Clay started as my 10th team then hung out around the top 7 and last week went back to ten. It looked like I had Clay pegged right from the beginning, but last week’s trade has brought him depth and optimism. It is going to be very important for Clay to choose the right players on a weekly basis. I hope he’s paying attention and his skills are sharp.
9. Kristen
Previous (11,13,11,5,2,1,1,6)
Nine might be a little too low for this talented team. That saying, Kristen has lost three in a row and dropped to 4-4. Kristen’s entire team was on a bye in week 8, but if she wants to get back in my top five she needs to step it up and put up a big number in week 9.
10. Jeff
Previous (4,2,2,4,8,4,6,8)
This is me officially giving up on my favorite team heading into the season. Jeff came out strong and looked so promising. However, recently his team has vastly underperformed and had some bad luck. Jeff has scored a lot of points, but has lost a lot of close games. It’s still possible for this team to make the playoffs, but they are going to have to go 4-1 in the last five matchups.
11. Gill
Previous (3,5,7,10,10,9,12,13)
Once upon a time the strength of this team was its depth at every position. Now Gill has literally no depth and a major problem as Torain went down with a hamstring injury last week. Despite the 5-3 record this team is still one of the weakest teams in the league.
12. Mike
Previous (12,10,13,12,11,11,10,12)
I have talked with Mike a lot about his team and we both agree that his team is very solid. Mike has a lot of quality players and puts up a god amount of points. He just can’t find a way to win. If he doesn’t win I will have a hard time ranking him inside my top ten. I would approach this team with caution; Mike never gives up.
13. Shawn
Previous (5,8,8,11,9,10,13,11)
This is officially not Shawn’s season. Every time he puts up a big number his opponent has their best week of the year. I honestly believe this team is better on paper than Chris’ and Alex’s teams who are in my top 6. Shawn just can’t get any luck and I have accepted that.
14. Anton
Previous (6,7,10,13,12,12,14,14)
Will Anton win a game this year? The odds are still in his favor, but I am starting to get a little worried. The best part about finishing last is that you usually get to choose first where you want to draft next year, except in our league the winner of pick um gets that honor. Tough year for Nor Cal Flyin Fish.
