2012 Power Rank - Week 8

Week: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8

	RANK (prev)	TEAM	REC	COMMENT
	1 (2)	Hustla	6-2	Still getting dividends from the Gronkowski trade of 2011. I'm not sure how this team has survived with the rash of running back injuries dating back to week 1, but they are sporting the top record in the league.
	2 (3)	One Angry Gook	5-3	I'm still debating if this team is the number one ranked team. I really like the RB's and the WR's and Tom Brady is doing very well. Perhaps I could change it to rank of 1a and 1b.
	3 (1)	Buckwheat	5-3	Three top receivers on this squad and can you believe Calvin Johnson is the slug of the team? As for the running backs, there ain't much to talk about here....
	4 (4)	Crippled Monkeys	5-3	If this team was getting more consistent scoring from their players, I'd probably rank them higher. Not much higher, but there are some weeks they are rock stars and other weeks, you are thankful some players are not on your team.
	5 (5)	Dynasty	4-4	What can you do? You score enough points to beat most of the teams, 4th in All Play Record, yet there is much frustration when they face a higher scoring opponent. Six of eight weeks they've scored 117 points or more, which is outstanding, but what can you do with the crappy schedule?
	6 (6)	Thunder Choads	3-5	In the coulda, shoulda, woulda category, this team could have three more victories with the right lineup. Week 8 was an awful week with Fitz, Cruz, Charles and Bradshaw combining for 25 points.
	7 (10)	Dragons	4-4	Currently ranked 11th in points scored and a virtual tie for most bench points. However, they only are ranked 8th in potential points. Had a great week 8, but what about next week?
	8 (8)	Short Bus All Star	3-5	Has this team turned the corner now that Wes Welker and Chris Johnson are scoring the points that were expected on draft night?
	9 (10)	Stickboy	4-4	A crushing victory on the team you trade with the most, I guess it is fitting to show off your newly acquired players. Okay, Doug Martin was huge for you, who am I kidding?
	10 (9)	Grease Slappers	5-3	Sure, you've won four weeks in a row and are first in the East, but you're leading in the least points scored against category. Not to mention, you're low weekly score totals. Welcome to the dream schedule!
	11 (7)	Top Notch	3-5	The demise of the receiving core of this team is really hurting each week. Not that there is much on the waiver wire to help. Now a threat of Michael Vick heading to the bench....
	12 (12)	Rutting Bucks	1-7	There was a blip of hope in Week 8, Michael Crabtree and Rashad Jennings help move this team out of the low score of the week. The question is, will this team join Grease Slappers and Thunder Choads in the 1 win season column?
