Brawlers and Warriors only lost to undefeated teams, so if he really thinks those undefeated teams are better than the Romans, I could see it.

But the Toreros lost to a 7-1 team... seems like a bit of a stretch to say a team that lost to a team that is clearly not the best, is better than an undefeated team who hasn't played the best.

Power Rankings are based off of a math formula. My opinion doesn't play into this at all. Personally I'd change these a bit but like I said Power Rankings are based off of math. I just input the numbers and post the results.

The formula has been good at deciding the top teams so far. Most of the movement and losses in the predictions are in the middle levels. This upcoming week will be interesting to see how some things work out.

As for the Romans and Titans being low it has to do with strength of schedule. So far they have the easiest schedules in the league. The formula takes into consideration the strength of an opponent and how well they did against them.
