Power rankings are not standings. Standings tell you what happened. Power rankings attempt — with only partial success, per the model's own confidence interval — to tell you what is actually true. The methodology below weighs record (30%), points scored (25%), points allowed (15%), scoring trend over the last three weeks (20%), and upcoming strength of schedule (10%). The result is a ranking that agrees with the standings in some places and argues with them in others.
| Rk | Team | Prev | Mvmt | Rec | Analyst Take |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Nguyenning | 1 | — | 4-2 | Boring, efficient, and still the best record-plus-points combo in the league. |
| 2 | Bass To Mouth | 5 | ▲3 | 3-3 | Leads the league in scoring trend over the last three weeks. Record hasn't caught up yet. |
| 3 | Javaris Jamarr Javarison-Lamar | 2 | ▼1 | 4-2 | Stephen says he's the favorite. The model says top three. Split the difference. |
| 4 | Rashee-d For Speed | 3 | ▼1 | 4-2 | Worst output of the season in Week 6 costs the Commissioner a spot. |
| 5 | The McGriddle Stack | 4 | ▼1 | 4-2 | Quietly 4-2 with nobody talking about it. The model noticed anyway. |
| 6 | Dart Side of The Beer Mile | 8 | ▲2 | 3-3 | Blowout win over the Commissioner is the best single result of the week. |
| 7 | Chasing Last Place | 7 | — | 3-3 | Still chasing. Still hasn't caught it. The irony remains undefeated. |
| 8 | All Gas No Drakes | 6 | ▼2 | 4-2 | Two straight losses and a league-leading shotgun count, but the record is still a game over .500. The dynasty is sweating, not sinking. |
| 9 | Myers Diggs Type GFYS | 9 | — | 3-3 | Dead even in points for and against. The definition of a coin flip. |
| 10 | Dakstreets Back, Alright! | 10 | — | 2-4 | Second-worst points-against mark in the league. The defense is the problem. |
| 11 | Achane Reaction | 12 | ▲1 | 1-5 | A win is a win, even at the bottom. Tony immediately started shopping. |
| 12 | Sacrificial Lamb | 11 | ▼1 | 1-5 | League-worst scoring differential. The name fits better every week. |
