Premier League Power Rankings - Week 1

Good evening everyone, welcome to the inaugural Power Rankings. Over the course of the season, we'll see how each team is doing. Rankings are based on current and past performance, as well as expected future performance. Injuries, suspensions, etc. all factor into the Power Rankings.

Week 1 is always pretty vanilla - I won't argue with the Yahoo standings until at least Week 2. So without further ado:

Power Rankings - Week 1

1. All Day Long (1-0, NR) - Adrian Peterson did me dirty after carrying me to back to back regular season titles. Mike Bell is also proving to be a short term fix.

2. TalentedMr.Gnomo (1-0, NR) - The other monster fantasy performance, Drew Brees was the only true standout for BG this week. Still looks to be a solid team going forward.

3. ObamanationWOOT (1-0, NR) - Tony Romo sans TO and Greg Jennings carried Chadwick to victory. Not much else from the rest of his team, but sometimes you just need to grind out a victory.

4. theTOshow (1-0, NR) - Reggie Wayne looks to be a top performer for the next several weeks while Anthony Gonzo recovers from his knee injury. Hopefully Santana shows up a bit more next week.

5. The Blaugrana (1-0, NR) - The lowest scorer of the winners, J Mo rides Darren Sproles on MNF to victory. Not a convincing victory by any means, but I'd be glad to switch spots with him.

6. The New Yorker (0-1, NR) - The biggest loser, Alan would've beat Jamie or J Mo. Pretty steady production across the board, which is what you're looking for.

7. Creative Name (0-1, NR) - Despite getting no shows from Berrian and Gonzalez, Shaun still was within a whisker of getting a win this week. He'll need Breaston or Austin to step up for the next several weeks.

8. ERock (0-1, NR) - Eric didn't get a standout performance from anyone this week, and nearly got a goose egg from Greg Olsen. Don't expect that to happen again - I had Olsen as the #6 TE, so I think he'll get back on track soon.

9. Ruining Football (0-1, NR) - Wank performances from most of my top players (Forte, Jacobs, S. Smith), and an injury to McNabb mean I have my work cut out for me. Hopefully Joe Flacco can keep up his strong start until McNabb gets back.

10. Child Plz (0-1, NR) - The most promising thing for Chris' team is his pickup of Carnell Williams - he's put together a nice stable of RBs, and I would think they'd be better than they were this past week.

That'll do it for this week's Power Rankings. How'd I do? Comment below.
