Power Rankings
After 2 games, a lot is still unclear. But, there's at least something to go by more than just salary. Below are the power rankings, sorted by 1) Team's Average Rating; 2) Record; and 3) PD. The average rating is done by averaging each rating on a per game basis, and then averaging the games. I take the base rating (for example, average=6, respectable=7) and use the secondary as a decimal (low = .25, medium= .5, high= .75). Still doesn't tell the whole story, but we're getting there...
1) Exclpze (6.854, 2-0, +14): He has the roster, and they're playing well. Good purchases and he'll be tough to beat.
2) Extra Crispy (6.479, 1-1, +16): Tough away game vs. Ozark, but played with lower ENTH.
3) Natellio (6.417, 2-0, +27): Shocked that my rating is 3rd. I'll take it! Glad I'll at least be competitive.
4) Updog Brewers (6.333, 2-0, +21): Good win away, with equal ENTH, against last year's runner-up.
5) Schrodas Shootas (6.313, 2-0, +33): The early favorite hasn't disappointed. Looks strong.
6) Broken Aarow Tornados (6.292, 0-2, -5): Could very easily be 2-0. Got caught on TIE last game at home.
7) 2 Left Feet (6.271, 1-1, -1): Ratings look good, but had a tough game @Shrodas.
8) Ozark Tigers (6.208, 1-1, +3): A little one dimensional, but will always have the best inside numbers.
9) Toronto Traptors (6.065, 0-2, -29): Two tough opening games, but the rating is ok and the enth should be building.
10) Drons Wolfs (6.063, 1-1, -2): Has played with higher ENTH both games. Staying very competitive.
11) East Gary Eagles (6.063, 1-1, -14): Had a tough away opener with lower ENTH, but is back on track.
12) Boston Constructs (5.938, 1-1, +17): Put more into last game than the Eagles and still lost by double digits. Great opening game keeps him up high in the early standings.
13) Lake Charles Creoles (5.917, 0-2, -20): Last season's runner up is struggling early.
14) Conneticut Cresleys (5.875, 2-0. +34): This is where the ratings may fail. Cresleys are killing teams early, but with low ratings. But has normaled both games.
15) Baltimore Barnburners (5.646, 0-2, -32): Look to need some help early on.
16) Steel City Cyborgs (4.792, 0-2, -60): Doesn't look like they can compete yet and will need some help.
**Just edited the ratings format to give more emphasis on the secondary ratings. Rather average (high) being 6.3 and respectable (low) being 7.1, it is now 6.75 and 7.25, respectively. The smaller difference should have a better reflection on actual performance. It did slightly change the rankings.
