I'm working late tonight so this will be brief. A few teams made moves that don't seem to match up with the week 6 results because the rankings were also affected by the removal of the second preseason game. One of the more obvious examples is WWR continuing to fall despite winning two in row. Their 3-1 preseason record helped prop up their ranking during a 1-3 start to the season.

Yeah, might as well gut now.

I could have used your team as the example but I picked the Rhinos since they noticed it last week too. If we assume preseason games are mostly meaningless, you guys should have started lower and kept climbing instead of making a big jump to the top 10 and then falling. The rankings will stabilize in a couple more games anyway.

Again, thanks for the post Doc! You keep it interesting for us!

I have nothing against you or your team so don't take this the wrong way, but I needed a team whose move was in an unexpected direction. I'm pretty sure nobody expected ABD to remain at #3 or #4. Besides that, mentioning ABD tends to take threads off-topic, and as Parab00n so eloquently put it in the derailed Week 5 thread:

I hope I'm in context with what you are asking for. My team has lost their last couple and we keep moving up. Last week was a +1 and this week a +3. I would have expected us to move down.

Keep up the good work. I like to read what you post and it seems to be accurate for what you pick on game day.
