So, what has happened to the #1 spot after this week?...
Power Rankings - Week 11
[Previous Rank in brackets]
1.
(8-2, 1126.00 pts) [2] - Justina gets the bump up not necessarily due to her team's performance this week, but more because of Jeff's team terrible week. As far as the trade, the addition of Stafford should be a nice addition (if he can avoid performances like this past week's), but I'm not sure if it'll make up for her loss of Forte. BJGE might work out, but she might need to look for other options. Honestly, I think the trade makes the rest of the season and upcoming playoffs that much more unpredictable / interesting.
(7-3, 1106.72 pts) [1] - Jeff scores the least amount of points this week. One could argue he should be bumped down further. I'll attribute it to a one-week fluke. I think his team still has umph. In spite of the fact that teams have figured out Wes Welker.
(6-4, 1060.92 pts) [4] - Aaron's team has been skyrocketing to the top with back-to-back high-scoring weeks. It sure doesn't hurt to have Aaron Rodgers, and this week it was Jordy Nelson that racked up big points. Aaron's team is peaking at the right time. Justina and Jeff, watch out.
(6-4, 991.42 pts) [3] - Tough week for Eric, and a big part of his future success rests in how Gore's knee holds up. I think his team can still put up big numbers, but we'll see if it actually will. A hurt Gore could put him in a rut.
(4-6, 1038.74 pts) [5] - Unbelievable. 3 games lost by 0.6 points or less. And my next three games are against Jeff, Eric, and Justina. Guess who might be the highest-scoring team that doesn't make the playoffs? I'm not bitter.
(5-5, 1018.86 pts) [6] - The Arian Foster trade is paying off big time. Nice Laurent Robinson pickup as well. Carson Palmer? No Aaron Rodgers, but it might get him by.
(5-5, 1006.34 pts) [7[ - I didn't realize Luke picked up Michael Bush in the draft and has kept him since. Nice. His 30 points definitely gave Luke the W this week (as well as MJD's 19 points), but will he be a long-term fix at the RB spot? Not sure about that one.
(4-6, 932.04 pts) [9] - David got the win, but only because he played Eric, the 2nd lowest scoring team this week. His team gets a bump up anyways because of the addition of Forte. It's amazing how much one RB can make an RB duo look so much better.9.
(3-7, 905.72 pts) [8] - A slight dip in the rankings. Does it really matter at this point?
(2-8, 893.24 pts) [10] - Sorry, I've run out of interesting things to say. Clearly.
