Power Powell Rankings: Week 4 - Movers and Shakers

Well that's another nail biting week of fantasy in the books fellas. The level of competition this year is the main difference I'm beginning to notice. Looking at the records in the middle of the pack it's only the points scored that is separating a team from being the second best team in the league and the sixth (and final playoff spot) ranked team. Even the 1-2 teams have a shot at a week 14 berth based on their points for and roster potentials. It's going to get a little chippy down the stretch. Let's see the ups and downs:

1. The Fear Boners (Last Week 1): I'm having a fantastic year thus far, but my record in the Bi-Annual, Bi-Sexual Boner Bowl typically has me pegged in for Mike top/John bottom. We'll have to see if I can escape a Boner Bowl already caked in Bye Week Blues.

2. The Keith-glorious Basterds (Last Week 4): Keith is back to the cream of the crop this week. I had a short conversation with him before the season about how boring/unwatchable I felt that his keepers were, it was totally my opinion as most fantasy analysts had his RB duo as top ten backs and Stafford as a top five QB. This week seemed to favor my opinion as three of his four keepers combined to score the 18.24 points, the exception being Antonio Brown and that's a player I have to admit I didn't have a clue at all about. The point I'm trying to make is that despite not keeping the greatest players, Keith's strategic draft allowed him to plug in the right players to put up 120 points. Keith may have the best balance of role players and upside potential in the league.

3. Oh That's Nasty (Last Week 5): Dawson is consistently putting up triple figures and has the roster (outside of my own) that I love the best. Green/Bryant at WR, an emerging Bell at RB and Matty Ice at QB. Those are all players I love to watch and they ought to keep other owners on notice. I say that as it's only a matter of time before Dawson has the first 200 point team total in one week in the history of TFLOEG!!!!!!!!

4. Aaron "Primetime" Clapperton (Last Week 9): Well, the walking/talking practical joke of TFLOEG is a contender that demands a certain level of respect this year. He's winning and whether or not this was some soul-trading contract made with Lucifer in summer or simply finding a four leaved clover in Ireland it appears he's the real deal.

5. SideLiners (Last Week 2): Steve lost a heart breaker to Aaron (or ASP) thus he's after him in the rankings, but Charles' progress through injury should put him back into the win column soon.

6. NINERS (Last Week 6): Stan's in the six spot for the third consecutive week and I'd be completely mentally deranged if I didn't recommend at this point that Altus Geomatics dip in to the slush fund and find an exorcist for the building. Blame un-evolved parenting (Adrian Peterson situation), injuries and bye week issues for Stan's troubles if you like; however my money is on Aaron's Satanic Pact (ASP) I mentioned earlier.

7. NFL OWNER (Last Week 3): Last Minute Tampa Tinkering... It sounds like a Friday night for James Franco's character Alien in Spring Breakers. Even though it lost him this week the thing I find unusual is Aaron Rogers. What's happening to the NFL? Every consistent law we thought was set in stone is crumbling.

8. RW Throws A Sexy Deep Ball (Last Week 7): As this is the first post referencing ASP I need to beat this fact to death (in the same fashion Aaron did to a leprechaun in Ireland during some druid black mass): Aaron has brought curses and magik into Altus Geomatics (TFLOEG by way of association) and he is a necromancer that must be stopped at all costs! On what planet does McCoy/Sproles combine for five points, Kirk Cousins become the greatest quarterback since Joe Montana and have Larry Fitzgerald fumble? A planet tainted by Aaron in his War-Room, check that, Warlock-Room.

9. What Are The Chances? (Last Week 8): Curt's team is not putting up points needed to win, but he's still putting up more then...

10: BISP (Last Week 10): He's the worst, but he has a high probability of bringing me down this week and I don't want to tempt fate (or leprechaun death curses) by talking too much smack.

There you have it fellas, an ancient evil has been awoken and it's up to each of us to find a way of setting the world right! Set your week four lineups for the purity that comes from faerie magic and let's cleanse this unholy scourge back to whence it came (Last Week 9).
