Tier Two (0-1)


17. Atlanta Falcons- They lost 20-13 to the Chiefs but no need to panic as the Chiefs are one of the elite teams as well. They look to rebound against the Broncos.

18. Arizona Cardinals- They lost 27-17 to the Seahawks and need to cut down on turnovers. They play the Patriots in Foxboro this week where they cannot fall to 0-2.

19. San Francisco 49ers- A very disappointing start to the season as they were on the wrong side of a statement game in a loss to the Packers 33-14. They face the Lions this week on Sunday Night Football.

20. Houston Texans- Their passing offense looked strong but their turnovers killed them against the Dolphins. They look to get back on track against the Jaguars.

21. New England Patriots- Almost pulled off a comeback against the Titans. They look to improve to 1-1 this week against the Cardinals which should be a good game.

22. Dallas Cowboys- Disappointing loss to start the season to rival Giants. Next week doesn't get easier where they face the Seahawks.

23. New York Jets- Tebow-mania is no more after 4 INTs. Next week they face the Steelers.

24. St. Louis Rams- Looked strong in their SFL debut and if it keeps up expect them to become higher in the standings. They face the Redskins next week.

25. Denver Broncos- Their SFL debut ended in a loss to the Steelers. Next week doesn't get easier against the Falcons.

26. Cincinnati Bengals- Held their own against the Ravens but lost 17-10. Next week they face the Browns.

27. New Orleans Saints- Their offense was held in check and their defense made RG3 look like a veteran. If they run more against the Panthers then they should get it done.

28. Cleveland Browns- Lost 26-29 against the Eagles in their debut. They look to get their first win against the Bengals this week.

29. Jacksonville Jaguars- Lost 35-23 against AP and had trouble stopping the run. Next week wont get easier against Foster and the Texans.

30. Carolina Panthers- More like 0-16 as they lose to the Bucs. They try to get their first win against the Saints this week.

31. Chicago Bears- Looked awful against the Colts in their 37-10 defeat. Forte needs more touches for success. They face the Packers on Thursday Night.

32. San Diego Chargers- They were winning but due to a disconnect we ranked them last this week. They face the Titans next week.

This was a really good read. Hopefully you keep these going for the remainder of the season. Everybody that's 0-1 still ain't Tier One though! Lol. Good write-up.

One of the reasons I love this league, the contribution and creativity from users who take the time out of their day just to make this league more enjoyable by writing up stories, things like Monday Night Football, Sideline Illustrated (looks like that died, I'm looking at you Quazi) SFL Season Previews, Pardon the Interruption, etc.

Couldn't have said it better. I've lost every game I've played here so far but this is the most fun I've ever had with a league. Thank you guys for your hard work and dedication.

Looks like the Redskins will remain at #1. AC has that defense playing very well.

I like how you did this, Andrew...

It keeps it organized how you did it all in one post but kept the link for the original with the Spoiler.. Before I saw that I was going to say you should keep replying with the new week's PR so we can look back and see how teams climbed / fell during the season


By the way, I'll have that Power Rankings SFL graphic done tomorrow afternoon

Lol, i had a DC my 1st game, shut down CJ2k, won that game 31-21, yet still low, and the titans were ranked above me. Just like in real life, with that east coast media bias, looking like im going to have to keep winning to try and earn some regard around here.
