Moving residences and stuck without a computer for a short period of time. I will try to get this up within a day or two.

This ranking is loosely based on fact and largely based on opinion. Thanks for reading. Please post and comment!
1. All Pro Falcons (1) - At this point both All Pro and FGC deserve #1, but All Pro has the best combo of victories over Crib and Taz. All Pro gets 3 easy wins in a row before the fight starts with Subversive and drags on the rest of the way. All Pro is a lock for a top 2 seed in my eyes, but they still have some difficult games ahead. Game of the year will be the All Pro and FGC match-up later in the year.
2. Fighting Gamecocks (3) - FGC now can claim at least one great victory over Itsply's squad and some pretty good ones over Dotball and Birdman. This is a pretty dangerous squad and could overtake FGC as the top team if they keep winning. I still see this coordinating combo as being one of the best in PW, but the competition is steep this year at the top.
3. Crib Midgets (6) - Despite losing to All Pro in week 1, Crib has since dominated with victories over SoA, EastWest, OffTopica, Jonesboro and Epic. The Midgets week 1 loss doesn't look too bad on their resume with All Pro performing at such a high level. Crib still must face Straight Cocks, Gerr's Bears and SBWL but this team is on track for a high seed in the West. Crib should now be recognized as a top team at this point in the year.
4. Epic Holiday (2) - Epic may have lost their first game, but this is still a very dangerous team and a potential top seed in the West. Epic has some nice victories over Jonesboro, Gerr and Straight Cock so the resume is pretty solid. If Epic can get victories over SBWL and SoA they would put themselves in contention for the top seed.
5. Subversive Education (7) - Itsply recently said in a post that he is being contributed for a great season because he isn't facing the great boosters early in the season... Nay Nay. Subversive has defeated Taz! Andddd managed wins over Dotball and Requiem. Subversive is rolling toward a solid seed but will have to fight hard to get victories over some tough competition late including Little Ohio, All Pro and Birdman. I am slightly excited about their matchup this week against Friendly City although I am picking Subversive pretty heavily.
6. Straight Cocks Homies (7) - Straight can now claim a very solid victory over Gerr's Bears as well as decent victories over Jonesboro and OffTopica. I still see this team as a bit of an enigma, but I am giving them the benefit of the doubt early. I don't know if Straight can defeat SBWL and SoA late, but we will see!
7. Short Bus Window Lickers () - Despite the maybe surprising loss to Jonesboro, SBWL is still a solid squad. SBWL has been defeated once and tied once, but is still able to claim two super close victories over EastWest and OffTopica.... Wait... What? Lets see where SBWL is after they get to face Epic, Crib, Straight and Gerr.
8. Chicago 85' Bears (9) - Gerr has a few fairly decent victories and two losses against pretty solid teams. I'm still debating whether or not this is a typically elite Gerr squad or if he forgot that the season started earlier. I guess as with a lot of teams this year, time will tell. Some squads like SBWL, Gerr and Taz have all started pretty well but maybe not as well as normal.
9. Requiem Revolver (6) - Frankly RR is in this ranking soley based on the fact that they are 7-1. RR defeated a pretty mediocre Columbia team by 1 but does have a decent win over Birdman. RR has played only one top opponent and looked absolutely awful. RR still must face some pretty solid teams the rest of the way. We will learn a lot about the quality of this team over then next few games.
10. Friendly City Psychopaths (10) - Well that was a nice streak FCP, but I wish you the best with your first few losses. I wouldn't be shocked if this team can get maybe 2 more wins, but I don't see more than 3 the rest of the year. This is probably a playoff team, but they will need to beat Rock City and pull out a victory over Little Ohio or Dotball. Outside of those 3 games, I don't see any other victories for this squad.
1. All Pro Falcons (1) - At this point both All Pro and FGC deserve #1, but All Pro has the best combo of victories over Crib and Taz. All Pro gets 3 easy wins in a row before the fight starts with Subversive and drags on the rest of the way. All Pro is a lock for a top 2 seed in my eyes, but they still have some difficult games ahead. Game of the year will be the All Pro and FGC match-up later in the year.

I made several changes this off-season, so far, they are not working as well as I had intended. Will ride the season out and see how they do later in the season.

That is really all that matters too. If I made a ranking of my opinion of the best title contenders, these would look different. These rankings are intended to be based on current events rather than long term outcomes
