2023 Week 13 Rankings

NotGreatBob (NotGreatBob) [10-3]

Change From Last Week: +1

Grrouchie's Ranking: 1

"NGB is coming into this week as the Number 1 seed and in order to hold onto it they need to beat Scotch n Whiskers.  Scotch is playing for their playoff hopes (and they need some help) so they are looking for the Upset victory.

NGB is guaranteed a 1st round bye no matter what so lets see if they have the willpower to come out firing to keep ScotchnWhiskers out of the playoffs."

BaileyOwen's Ranking: 1

"The champ keeps on rolling strong. This turns out to be their 5th win in a row, and NGB guarantees a bye in the 1st round. The Carr was broken down again, but the backup in Bananarama wasn't much better. Mike Evans and Ja'Marr Chase helped to put the team on their backs as they both nearly put up 150 yards and 1 TD in monster performances. The win could have been better with Chuba putting up 22.4 and Achane had 23.8 both on the bench. This is a team with big boom potential that will be scary to face in the playoffs."

Michael Scott's Tots (BaileyOwen) [8-5]

Change From Last Week: +1

Grrouchie's Ranking: 2

"The Tots currently hold the 3 seed in the playoff race and are playing 1-Putt as pretty heavy favorites.  If the Tots win and Pads lose, the Tots would take the #2 seed and get a first round bye.  This is a very important matchup to watch because it could help influence the shape of the playoffs!"

BaileyOwen's Ranking: 2

"I tried everything in my power to keep Scott's Tots as the #3 ranked team in the league. However, the Tots beat the former #2 team and has the chance to steal the bye from Pads in week 14. Throw in a higher PF on the year and this squad ends up in the 2 spot. The Geno Smith trade turned out to be a great move as he put up almost 36 points. Add in Devonta Smith putting up almost 100 yards and a TD and then the Smith's combined for 56 points. Kamara decided to score enough to make up for the lack of production from Ekeler. Unfortunately this team loses Tank Dell for the year and will look for more depth to replace his production. This team could make some damage in the playoffs and might end up sneaking into a bye."

Get Out (Pads) [9-4]

Change From Last Week: -2

Grrouchie's Ranking: 3

"Pads currently controls the #2 seed for the playoffs but I have them Ranked 3rd because they lost last week.

If Pads wins and NGB loses then Pads could take the #1 spot back and secure their first round bye.  If they win they have a bye no matter what.

However, if they Lose and the Tots win, then the Tots would take over the #2 spot and Pads would be forced to have to win 3 in a row to take the championship."

BaileyOwen's Ranking: 3

"Pads is still in line for a bye, but that could change with a loss in week 14. CMC hit his usual 20 point threshold. Montgomery, Kupp, and Etienne pulled their own weight this week. However, the rest of the squad lacked production and could not crack 100 points on the week. Will the injury to Rhamondre cost Pads in the long run? Do they have the depth to overcome it? Does Calvin Ridley start to produce more with Kirk being sidelined? These are all questions we're going to have to wait and see. Pads might have fallen in my rankings, but they still hold strong as the 2nd seed in our league."

Scumdogs (grrouchie) [8-5]

Change From Last Week: +2

Grrouchie's Ranking: 4

"Currently sitting in 4th place  and having an up and down season. The Scumdogs and the Tots lose then the Scumdogs could take 3rd place heading into the playoffs.  If the Tots lose and Pads loses and the scumdogs score 65 more points than Pads (hahaha) then the Scumdogs could propel themselves to the #2 spot and earn a bye.  Very long shot, but kinda worth mentioning since I'm a Scumdogs Homer.

If the Scumdogs lose the worst case is that they fall to the 5th seed.

This week they play Shiva who has had an amazing run this season but they are looking for one last spoiler game."

BaileyOwen's Ranking: 4

"The Scumdogs came out with a monster performance and didn't leave any doubt in this week 13 matchup. A solid 69 (nice) point win can help the locker room morale with only a week left until the playoffs. Mixon, Pitty City, Puk Nukem, and James Conner all put up over 20 points and combined for 92.5 points. This would have still won the week by nearly 20 points. It was an absolutely dominating effort from this squad. It's surprising that Sutton, JT, and Justin Jefferson were all on the bench. What will the score look like when the squad gets more healthy? Definitely a frightening team to face in the playoffs."

PRESTIGE WORLDWIDE (lwinman) [7-6]

Change From Last Week: -1

Grrouchie's Ranking: 5

"Prestige faces Codycast in another important pre-playoff game.  If Prestige wins and the Scumdogs lose then Prestige could take over the 4th spot.

However, if they Lose and Fuzzy wins then they could fall to the 6th spot.

The only way for them to miss the playoffs would be for them to lose, Fuzzy to win and Scotch or Codycast wins and outscores Prestige by 50-70 points (not likely.

So, worst case for Prestige this game is for seeding.

Codycast has more on the line, however."

BaileyOwen's Ranking: 5

"Not the result that Prestige Worldwide was hoping for but they still sit in a playoff spot heading into the last week. This squad controls their own destiny because if they win then they are in. 3 points out of both RB slots is a tough bullet to bite with Royce Freeman only having 1 carry for 0 yards. Christian Watson was a nice glimmer of hope, but unfortunately might miss some time due to his hamstring injury. If you're having a bad week just remember that you scored the same amount of .5 PPR points than Royce Freeman AND Hollywood Brown combined!"

ScotchnWhiskers (ScotchnWhiskers) [6-7]

Change From Last Week: +2

Grrouchie's Ranking: 6

"Scotch is currently ranked 7th and has their work cut out for them.  SnW needs to win and have Fuzzy lose and they can overtake them and sneak into the playoffs.

They also prefer a loss from CodyCast because then they don't have to worry about points, but if CodyCast wins and scores enough they could overtake SnWhiskers, but it would be tough.

Scotch is playing NGB so they definitely have their work cut out for them to defeat the #1 seed in their attempted Playoff Push."

BaileyOwen's Ranking: 7

"ScotchnWhiskers came out with the 2nd highest score of the week and a fairly dominating win in week 13. DK went off on Thursday night to kickstart a solid week. Hurts and AJ Brown combined for 40 points while The Yeti also put up 102 yards and 2 TDs. Skyy Moore and Guyton didn't do much and we don't know how much a team can rely on these guys. Jaylen Warren didn't put up much with only 55 total yards but might see an uptick in production with Najee questionable. Anything can happen in the final week but Scotchn needs some help from other teams to make the playoffs."

Fuzzy Logic (Slattery) [6-7]

Change From Last Week: -2

Grrouchie's Ranking: 8

"While Fuzzy Logic currently control their own destiny, the last 3 games (all loses) seem to indicate that their opponents control their destiny.   Will They prevail against the Delta Squad..... Or will they find themselves on the outside looking in and tanking a promising season?"

BaileyOwen's Ranking: 6

"Fuzzy Logic went up against the #1 seed and could barely crack 100 points on the week.  Mahomes and Kelce are not producing like they have been in years past. Scary Terry put up a dud with a great cardio day. Tyreek Hill was the only guy who truly produced with his 157 yards and 2 TDs. This was loss number 3 in a row for Fuzzy Logic. They hope to pull out a win in week 14 because it seems like they will have the tiebreaker over other 7-7 teams. If they are able to sneak into the playoffs then this might be a team who can pull out some victories."

codycast (codycast) [6-7]

Change From Last Week: +2

Grrouchie's Ranking: 7

"CodyCast sitting as the 8th seed and they are technically not out of this but they do need a lot of luck to advance to the playoffs. 

CodyCast is playing Prestige who has been having a great end of season.

CodyCasts Playoff Scenerio:  CodyCast has to win.

Fuzzy has to lose and CodyCast has to outscore Fuzzy by about 150 points.

Better Luck Next year pal.  CodyCast is playing for Pride right now"

BaileyOwen's Ranking: 8

"Codycast had a good win over Delta Squad, but they might have gotten a little lucky facing 2 players on bye. They only won by 14 points and it could have very well been a loss with a few lineup changes across the field. Kirk went out after his 1 catch for 26 yards and will unfortunately miss the rest of the season. Higgins, Garrett Wilson, Gibbs, and Hunt were underwhelming and combined for just over 22 points. Will Jake Browning make a push to start (lol) for Codycast? Deebo went Threebo and put up 3 total TDs and 138 total yards to save the week for Codycast. Anything could happen in week 14 and Codycast does still technically have a chance to make the playoffs."

ShivaBlasts (jwv7244) [6-7]

Change From Last Week: -2

Grrouchie's Ranking: 9

"The ShivaBlasts are playing to hurt some feelings this week. There is no way for them to make the playoffs but they can put the Scumdogs in a worse position if they can pull off the upset."

BaileyOwen's Ranking: 10

"The win streak was snapped last week and another disappointing loss almost but guarantees missing the playoffs. They need Fuzzy Logic, ScotchnWhiskers, and Codycast to all lose their matchups OR outscore those teams by 262 points or more. Scoring under 75 points will not get you many wins in fantasy football. Dirty Mike took it to Shiva with a near 50 point win. It's not looking like a playoff push for ShivaBlasts and they will need to look forward to the possible 1.13 pick."

Delta Squad (OneTyrell) [5-8]

Change From Last Week: -1

Grrouchie's Ranking: 12

"Delta Squad has a lot of potential on their roster and they look like they could make a run next year if everything is clicking.  However, they get ranked 12 this week because their game against CodyCast was a tank job.  Starting two RBs on Bye instead of playing for the win drops them to the bottom of the power rankings and they get 10 lashes with a wet noodle.  Delta Squad, go sit in the corner and think about your decisions (and trade Amon Ra to the Scumdogs)."

BaileyOwen's Ranking: 9

"Well what could have been with a couple of lineup tweaks. Barkley and Cook were on bye but unfortunately still in the starting lineup. Move Pollard to 1 of the RB slots and then add Zeke and Doubs for 20 points. This could have been a very different result. 14 point loss is not fun and unfortunately almost eliminates Delta Squad from the playoffs. Luckily there is still something to look forward to with the possible 1.13 pick on the horizon. "

Dirty Mike & The Boys (HartyPGA) [4-9]

Change From Last Week: =0

Grrouchie's Ranking: 10

"Dirty Mike & The Boys have won two in a row and are looking to upset Pads and take away their Bye week.  They are playing for Pride and they having been really showing signs of life at the end of this season trying to build momentum for next year.

Two weeks ago they were marked for dead and the worst team in the league.  Now they are showing some Spunk and putting the league on notice for 2024."

BaileyOwen's Ranking: 11

"Dirty Mike and The Boys pull off their second win in a row with a solid score on the week. Purdy looks like a MVP candidate (and don't you dare call him a check down king) and could be a nice secret weapon going forward. Justin Watson had the same amount of fantasy points as you and me. Drake London only caught 1 of 5 passes for 8 yards and was abysmal. Luckily for Dirty Mike there was LaPorta's 25 points and Nico Collins almost putting up 30 points. This team will almost certainly look to play spoiler yet again in week 14 and could possibly knock Pads out of a bye."

September...08! (GhostDad77) [3-10]

Change From Last Week: =0

Grrouchie's Ranking: 11

"1-Putt is looking to Eat some Tots this week and kill all hope of the Tots getting a 1st round bye.  This is purely a play for pride game for the Tots as every member of this team is auditioning for their jobs next season. 

In the locker room I overheard GhostDad telling the team he would trade every M'F'R who didn't show up this week. He then threw a clipboard and nearly took off Musgrave's head.

Musgrave is on IR, getting examined."

BaileyOwen's Ranking: 12

"Any team could find themselves in the 12th spot in the rankings after they have lost 6 in a row. The points for aren't there and the wins aren't either. GhostDad is destined to have the best odds for the draft lottery and could end up with the 1.01. Unfortunately for this squad, they do not currently hold their own 1st round pick. There have been tedious efforts to try and reacquire that 1st pick, but some loser is hoarding it and won't give it up. All eyes turn to the consolation bracket and the prized 1.13 pick. How much will GhostDad try and shake things up over the offseason?"
