right. if you win. which means it doesn't take into consideration if you've played REALLY strong teams, and not won.


If you played strong teams then you get credit for that in the rankings.

Look at New Orleans Golden Kangaroos.

2-3 record but they are #10 in the Power Rankings because they got beat by a #1 team, a #2 team, and a #6 team.

Same thing for the Bruins at #11. We are also 2-3... losing to the #2, #3 and #15 teams. One loss was by 1 (to the #15 team), another was by 3 (to the #3 team).

You'll find the loss to the #15 team will look good later in the season. Only losing by one will seem like a win. I think we finally got a handle on the AI's, no excuses, just fact. Here come All The King's Men!

I think a few of us were having AI issues, early in the year (I know we've gotten better each week). That said, you guys are a good team... just like the majority of teams in this league.

I honestly believe that whoever has the more dedicated coaches will do the best this season. The talent level is very, very close. Scouting and game-planning will be winning the day more often than not.

We do have the #7 sack leader though. Plus we kind of helped you out last game... holding Julius Pepper to only a single tackle against us

UPDATED AS OF 11/21

On a separate note, anyone ever notice Hollywood misspelled their name?

I vouch for the Bruins being good, they will be in the playoffs!

I appreciate it, but we won't even have a winning record if we can't figure some things out soon

Not sure I'd call that a "flaw". It's no different than a real world situation where a team plays second stringers for the 3rd QT on, or a coach saves big plays for better competition. No poll or ranking, real life or otherwise, accounts for scrub time and mercy plays.

Spreadsheet can be found here:

What I meant by flaw.. is that because of this, there is no way for this to ever be even close to a good accurate way of doing a ranking until basically the last few weeks, but by then everything will be sorted out pretty good already.

Woot, 24 straight!

am i really wasted all the time cause i dont get the rankings numbers, then again, im not gonna spend time trying to understand them either.
