Yes, those bars mean next to nothing. They don't take into account SA's, equipment, and its the average between all players on the team. So if you have say a level 20 DT, level 22 NT, level 15 DT, and a level 16 DT, it will look bad on the ratings compared with just a 22 DT and a 19 NT

I find the power bars a bit distracting. It penalizes teams for depth.

Do you mean the overall rating?

And I looked at plenty of different factors in coming up with this such as win/loss record, quality of wins, quality of losses, points scored, (didnt really look at pointas against that much because sometimes teams place their scrub d when they get up big), overall rating. I also took into account how some teams did last year in relations to others when I was comparing two teams that were both here last year.

Yeah, like I posted above your rankings seem pretty spot on. The example above clearly indicates the problem I have with the power bars though.

I use this only for basic info... not really accurate and usefull.

Just the overall with a +6 overall you can give up hope (experience speaking!)

Here's a little thing I've thought about doing for a while, the team rankings in some important offensive and defensive stats. Now that we're 7 games in we can start to see some true rankings for the league. It's easy enough to find, so it's also easy to make on my own, so I figured I'd put it all in one place every week for people to view it easily. I'll put it in the zeta power ranking threads. Should give a better idea about some teams' true strengths.

I like what mena just posted really shows everything

Ofcorse those stats like the original power rankings dont really work, why? Because of games like these:

http://goallineblitz.com/game/game.pl?game_id=42281

Net yards for london 637. Net yards for wildcats 15.....

Its proves something it doesent prove other things.

If we look at londons passing 19/23. Thats good, they gained 250 passing yards, personally i would have passed the whole game. They rushed 61.

Im not here to attack london, i love them as my enemies. Personnaly i love real life football rivalries, the kind that you can goto a party that week and show off a ring to a player from the other team. I cant really make my CB angry and want to hit someone really hard. Stupid sims...

Yeah, games like that definitely skew some stats. But by the end of the year and as more teams play a team like Cedar it'll all even out. That's why I didn't post them any earlier than now.

LOL look our team must be 13th not 15th!!! LOL

why would you of passed the whole game? You run the ball to kill the clock.

Id pass the whole game cause they gained 250 yards in 19 completions, now imagine if they tried to pass the whole game, Run the clock? Why? I would like just stat pad from teams like this.

But you have played a team like this, actually, the same team and rushed more then london did.
