Predictions and Power Rankings Week 10
Predictions
Another week down and another Skittles week for me falling farther back. With 2 weeks left it looks like it is between Willie and Jon for first and unless I pick it up, I’ll be last.
Jon, if you have to go in and make a few games a forfeit so Willie doesn’t win, no one on the Media team will have any issues with that. Now to this week’s picks in bold like always.
Division 1
Outlaws vs Gros Coqs
I don’t trust the Outlaws defense at this point to stop or even slow Dom and his offense down.
Centurions vs Iron Wolves
They score more and give up way fewer points.
Division 2
Jagerbomb vs Pocket Rockets
Just my gut telling me that Simon gets the job done in a near perfect game.
Thunder Buddies vs Idaho Udapimp
They will have the better roster at least in this game.
Marvels vs Spritz Gang
They have the better athletes and the better players.
Division 3
Douilles Molasses vs RawSauce
They need it more and will pull out all the stops to get the win and have any chance at the playoffs.
Double Dippers vs Average Joes
Without a QB, Double Dippers don’t stand much of a chance.
Red Cats vs Mustard Tigers
Avery should be back and will give them a boost on offense and get their defense straightened back out and playing at an elite level.
Double Dippers vs Phoenix NA
I don’t pick my team’s games.
Bines vs Pocket Rockets
They have the bigger stars and the better players.
Division 4
Villains vs Bouchers
They are the better team with the better players.
Drama Club vs Iron Wolves
Simon is banged up and might have some issue throwing.
Udaho Idapimp vs Black Diamonds
Udaho is by far the better team at most positions and Black Diamonds will struggle in this one.
RawSauce vs Bines Low Fat
They have the better QB.
Cyclones vs Airborne
Guillaume is the more experience QB and with Alex not playing receiver means the Cyclones offense is weak and might struggle to move the ball.
Division 5
Los Pollitos vs Improbables
If they can stop Sam, they win this game easily, but I think it will turn out to be harder then they expect and be a close game.
Bear Hood vs Mimosa Crew
I was thinking this would be a close game, but with the players missing from Mimosa Crew I won’t be surprised if it was a 2 or 3 score difference.
Phoenix vs Sour Peeps NA
I don’t pick my team’s games.
Weekend Warriors vs Titans
They have the better QB, way less experience, but the better athletes, plus I’m not sure if Ben will be there for Titans this weekend.
Jungle Squad vs Big Booties
They will be more organized, and they also have Max.
Los Pollitos vs Legendaries
They have to many weapons on both sides of the ball not to get this win.
Titans vs Kiss My Pass
Even though they will be lacking in the speed department they will make up for it with have the more complete team.
Chili Hotdogs vs Bear Hood
They are the better team, and it looks like Chili Hotdogs will be missing their QB with Goldrick filling in.
There you have my picks. If my picks are like the last few weeks I only got half my games right, so you pick which ones they are.
Power Rankings
With 10 weeks in the books the rankings look a lot different then when the season started. After last week’s games I mixed a few things up.
Division 1
1- Gros Coqs
2- Iron Wolves
3- Outlaws

3- Villains
Division 5

2- Mimosa Crew
3- Improbables
There are your rankings and I’m sure some changes will be made after this week.
Final Thoughts
Every gamer knows what time of the year it is and if you don’t it’s Madden Rating time. Every year Madden puts out the same game with a few little tweaks here and there and everyone says how much better it is. Then it comes out and is glitchy as a silly goose and they Yankee Doodle up a bunch of things and they’re doing updates for months. Madden used to be great, now it is just ok (ed’s note: what a hot take!).
I’m waiting for NCAA football to come back out so I can take a team like North Texas and win it all after 2 seasons. I will need a season to get recruits and to get Georgia, Bama, and a few other top teams on my schedule, but we must wait until at least July 2024 before it comes out, if it ever does.
Before I let you all go, please remember we’re playing a game, so go out, have fun, and don’t kill anyone. Good luck to everyone this weekend and see you all Saturday.
