TEAM
YOUR WAY TOO EARLY POWER RANKINGS EDITION
1
Coach Krayzie
Yup that's right the Vikings check in at #1 because lets face it. I have never been #1 in the ranks and I'm writing this article, so yes damn it, the Vikings at least for 1 week are #1. Gotta problem with it? Write your own Power Ranks!
2
Coach Remo
Da Bears check in at number 2 to show some love for the long time Bears fan and Vet MOF'er. Back with another season in Chicago. And Chicago couldn’t be happier. You wont find another owner in this league more well respected than Big Remo! Should come in at 1.......Cheers
3
Coach Jfon
My first ever madden league opponent many many years ago, and last editions NFC North rival who got the best of me. No one more in this league that I enjoy playing then Jfon. Long time Commish of the MOF. Back in the bay with his Buccs. Chef Steph and Devcode are unknowns but the longtime rivalry with Big Reg in ATL will continue
4
Coach Q
Talked me off the proverbial cliff multiple times, long time non-staff, staff member. Q is rolling with his hometown Cowboys for the first time in MOF since Tony Romo. It'll be interesting to see what he does with Dak and CeeDee
5
Coach MMX
MOF Gambling content creator extraordinaire. Pick ems and survivor has brought great fun to the league and we cannot thank him enough. MMX heads to San Francisco this edition and with one of the highest rated teams in the game will be a contender out the gate
6
Coach Mackdaddy - A.K.A. OG Mack
Along with Jfon, one of my very first madden buddies going back a long long (yes were old now) long time ago. There was a time we battled for championships against each other in many leagues. But that time has passed me by. All the while Mackdaddy has grown to be an elite MOF baller. Hes back with the Chargers this season and should in playoff contention every season.
7
Coach TexMexGalvan
Another one of the guys that I go way way back with. TexMex is MOFs enigma. You never know which Eddie your gonna get. Are you get Eddie who just cant catch a break or are you gonna get the seemingly elite Eddie. Why the difference week to week we will never know but one things for certain....well wait, nothings for certain with Tex
8
Coach BubbaDuran
Orginally drafted the Vikings, but then traded them, a 20 sack and a Sams Club sized bag of Doritos up to Krayzie for the Kansas City Chiefs. The name of his game is speed. And after drafting a few 99 speed WRs in the 6th and 7th rounds of next years draft, will be a force with Mahomes throwing bombs to speedy unknowns
9
Coach Mindenplaya
Minden heads back to Baltimore where he had a few good seasons 2 editions ago. Miden is a guy that’s always competitive but just cant close, coming up short usually by 1 score or less when he does lose. I look for Minden to go about .500 this edition and prob better if he can use Lamar to his full capabilities.
10
Coach Shawtypizzle
Maybe its just me but every time I hear someone say Coach Shawty all I can think of is T-Pain. Snap ya fingers, do ya steps, Tua wont have to do it by his self. Miami is loaded with speedy weapons. And we all know speed is king in Madden! Lets just hope Snowflake doesn't go missing again. because lets face it, everyone's favorite pet dick is just a distraction no one needs.
11
Coach MrWitness
Perhaps the biggest surprise of the draft. Witness heads to Jersey to coach the Jets and did it with pick number 6. Now, Witness is as good as advertised and the Jets have weapons all over the field. Can they avoid the antics of Aaron Rodgers enough to win divisions and maybe more? I, for one think so .
12
Coach Big Reg
Nothing says dedication like filming the draft selection of your favorite team while recording yourself while driving to Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Coach Reg was lucky not to get pulled over before he could select the Atlanta Falcons at 9.
13
Coach Latinyank
Coach Alex lands back in Houston for a 2nd edition in a row, and my oh my how the team has improved. Stroud went from rookie to superstar. They added Diggs and Hunter. This team will be a force to recon with as long as his wife isn't screaming at him in the background and he can focus on winning on the digital gridiron
14
Coach Big Dre
Another small shocker here, with the Jags on the table Big Dre decided to head north to coach the Eagles in one of the worst sports towns in America. Yeah you didn’t deserve A.I. and you threw rock laced snowballs at freaking Santa Claus - Good Luck Dre, bring ya pistol
15
Coach Canesbucs
Before (fake)Mack took the Packers and ruined my damn night, Canes took the Lions. And instantly I said shit. Well at least its someone win or lose that for the most part that I have good games with. The NFC North was supposed to be a two team race. now we must combine to form a super team to take down those cheeseheads!
16
Coach Bengalsonly
With the 14th pick in this years draft Coach bengalsonly selects…...wait for it…...The Cincinnati Bengals - SHOCKER. A long time vet of the MOF getting his bengals is a feel good moment, he should compete in the AFC North every season
17
Coach TSG LEE
Coach TSG lands with the Patriots this time around. If I remember correctly TSG is very much an offensive juggernaut, for better or for worse. It'll be interesting to see him build with a team that really needs an offensive identity. They have Rookie QB Maye in place, that's a good start!
18
Coach ELbuccs
While he may not have gotten his Buccaneers, he did stay in Florida and grabbed a nice looking Jags team. Led by Trevor Lawerence the Jags will need to consistent play that Elbuccs brings. Call me Krayzie but I believe this is the year that ElBuccs breaks out
19
Coach Enzo
Enzo comes out of retirement this edition not to go South Beach, not to go to L.A. No he came out of retirement to go to Cleveland?! If Enzo can return to form from pre-retirement the AFC North can say fuhgeddaboudit and fight for the wild card.
20
Coach BuffaloBill
Nobody circles the wagons like…....The Seattle Seahawks? Coach Buff goes from the East Coast to the West Coast to coach the Seattle Seahawks. I see a big play in the works to solve Seattle's QB issues with a big trade for Josh Allen. outside of something major like that I see the Hawks struggling out the gate this edition
21
Coach Pettigrew
Coach Petti should always be considered a favorite to win any division he is in, however landing with the Titans I'm not sure that statement is true. At least for the first few seasons. Pettigrew has a lot of work to do in Tennessee to get this team back on track
22
Coach MrRoclo
Coach Roclo lands himself in the nationals capital and somewhere Betts just broke a window with his fist. Roclo gets himself Jayden McDaniels and some other young weapons. But have some work to do on defense
23
Coach Boobie
With perhaps the sneakiest pick in the draft. Coach Boobie was able to land a pretty solid Rams team at pick 28. yes they have some work to do but Stafford brings stability and a great WR core will win them some games as they rebuild
24
Coach Devcode
Devcode….as in developing code? Hmmmm if hes writing the code, the Panthers are winning the damn thing
25
Coach Chef Steph
Who dat say dey gonna beat them Saints? The MOF that’s who. Sorry rookie, you gotta earn your stripes around here. However Coach Chef landed a nicely rated team with 29th pick in the draft. Lets see what the rookie has in store for us.
26
Coach Strawblacks
Another rookie for the MOF this edition. So I don’t have much to say other than welcome to the Rook, earn your stripes and climb the rankings. He lands the Cardinals with the 25th pick and he must like something about them as there stronger teams on the board....maybe he's a homer. if thats the case he fits in well in the MOF already
27
Coach AJ (At the time of this writing he hasn’t picked his team and gets the last team available at pick 32, assuming it to be the Giants)
Sitting at pick 32 to get a rebuilding team like The Giants is pretty advantageous. a lot of the key rebuilding parts are already in place and in a season or 2 could be a good squad. that is if the rookie coach can handle the MOF
28
Coach Gouch
Gouch nabbed the Steelers with the 15th pick this year. When Gouch is engaged he is tough to beat, when he's not, hes running the ball 95% of the time, and that just might work well in Pittsburgh
29
Coach Betts (At the time of this writing he hasn't picked his team yet, but I'm assuming he goes Denver)
Betts and I haven't always seen eye to eye but its always when one or both of us are drunk and we are crying about our NFL teams, at the end of the day its all love. Maybe we can be better now that his hatred for Kirk Cousins shifts to Atlanta.
30
Coach Beast
Widely regarded as one of the best in the MOF. Has the accolades to support his cause. I put Mr. 9 ball at #30 cuz the damn guy had 9 lottery chances and landed #1. He takes the Buffalo Bills and looks to terrorize the AFC East with Josh Allen and co. for the entire edition
31
Commish Dypko
The only reason our fearless leader checks in at 31 is cuz he has been kicking my ass since ps3 and I'm tired of it. He lands in Oakland this edition with a team I feel is very under rated. The Defense is pretty solid and the Offense has some young weapons to it. it might take him a
season but he will be a contender in short order
32
Coach Mack
Mack, 2nd of his name, champion of MOF, lover of cheese. He gets ranked 32nd because well he took the Packers and ruined my draft day. I'm setting the over/under at 4. for opponents controllers broken. And cuz he will never be ranked 32nd ever again. All jokes aside Mack is a perennial favorite to win it all, season in and season out even if he did steal someone's MOF handle ;)
