Power Rankings Thru Week 17

the charger has compiled this week's numbers and, as always, refuses to feel any particular way about them. brett sits at #1 despite a 9-8 record that would embarrass a coin flip, propped up by 83 all-play wins and 2085.22 points for, tops in the league. he's also carrying 24.96 points a week on his bench, which is either depth or malpractice depending on your priors. joe and scott round out the top three with all-play win totals in the high 70s, though scott's doing it on $0 faab, a monk's approach to roster building.

david is this week's mover, jumping three spots to #5. the record is a pedestrian 7-10 and the all-play wins (65) are unremarkable, but 1950.71 points for and a leftover bench of only 19.3 suggest a lineup that's mostly being set correctly, which apparently counts for something now. meanwhile boyer, jordan, and josh all slid one spot each. boyer's got $80 in faab sitting untouched, which is either a war chest or a monument to indecision. jordan's bench is leaking 25.92 points a week, the worst mark in the league not attached to a last-place team, and josh is starting lineups with an average starter rank of 100.0 flat, a number so round it feels intentional.

at the bottom, chu and mike are still auditioning for a different sport. chu's 37 all-play wins and 1649.01 points for are both fourth-worst by a comfortable margin, and mike's average starter rank of 107.4 suggests he is, on a weekly basis, starting players who do not exist yet. both are sitting on $0 faab, so whatever gets fixed here will have to be fixed with vibes alone.
