COACH BUBBA DURAN’S AI GENERATED POWER RANKINGS #18
Week 18 Edition — The Final Week Arrives
One week remains in the Season 87 regular season, and the top of the rankings is becoming incredibly difficult to separate.
Kansas City remains #1, but Week 17 was a SIM victory, meaning the Chiefs gain almost nothing from it. Meanwhile, Shawtypizzle destroyed Dallas 35–3, BigReub handled Buffalo 24–7, MMX continued his rebound, and BigDre won his fifth consecutive actual game.
Further down, KnightNoles finally stopped his three-game skid, BigReg ended AJ's four-game winning streak, QKP bounced back by hanging 51 on Cincinnati, and Canes reminded everyone why he owns seven championships.
Actual games continue to carry substantially more weight than SIM results. Records include all results.
👑 1. Bubbaduran07 — Chiefs
14–2 | Previous #1 | SIM W 28–14 vs Chargers
Week 18: Raiders
Kansas City stays #1—but this week doesn't strengthen Bubba's case.
The Chiefs' win over Los Angeles was simulated, so the ranking remains built primarily on the three actual victories before it:
42–24 vs Bengals
45–18 vs Patriots
59–14 vs 49ers
Kansas City has the league's best record at 14–2, with both losses coming against elite opponents in Witness and MMX.
Bubba gets Big Country in the finale with an opportunity to finish 15–2.
🥈 2. Shawtypizzle — Giants
13–3 | Previous #2 | W 35–3 vs Cowboys
Week 18: Eagles
Shawty keeps applying pressure to #1.
Dallas had already proven capable of pulling a massive upset by beating MMX. Shawty gave the Cowboys absolutely nothing.
Giants 35. Cowboys 3.
New York has now gone an astonishing 13–1 since starting 0–2.
And unlike Kansas City's Week 17 result, this one happened on the field.
If Shawty beats red-hot Cheefer in Week 18 and Kansas City struggles against Las Vegas, the final #1 ranking could become a legitimate debate.
🥉 3. BigReub0904 — Dolphins
14–2 | Previous #3 | W 24–7 vs Bills
Week 18: Patriots
BigReub keeps winning.
Miami followed its 41–31 victory over Green Bay with an actual 24–7 win over Buffalo after a SIM victory over Los Angeles.
Since taking over the Dolphins, BigReub's only actual loss remains against Commish Jeff.
Now he gets Minden in a fascinating Week 18 matchup.
A win could give Miami a legitimate argument for #1 depending on what happens above him.
4. MMXCalibur — Rams
13–3 | Previous #4 | W 28–10 vs Buccaneers
Week 18: Seahawks
MMX is rolling again.
After the shocking Dallas loss, the Rams have responded with actual victories over Knight and Tampa Bay.
And don't forget the most important part of MMX's résumé:
He beat #1 Kansas City head-to-head.
At 13–3, MMX remains firmly in the championship conversation.
Week 18 brings a rematch with Knight.
5. MrWitness36 — Cardinals
11–5 | Previous #5 | W 35–21 vs Raiders
Week 18: 49ers
Witness gets back on track.
After AJ held Arizona to seven points, the Cardinals responded with a 35–21 victory over Las Vegas.
Witness' recent inconsistency keeps him behind the top four, but nobody should forget that he owns actual victories over both Kansas City and MMX.
That's an extremely dangerous postseason résumé.
🔥 6. BigDre245 — Jaguars ⬆️1
10–6 | Previous #7 | W 43–27 vs Commanders
Week 18: Colts
BigDre might be the hottest coach outside the Top 5.
Jacksonville has now won five consecutive actual games:
45–0
31–7
34–14
30–15
43–27
That's 183–63.
A 3–5 team has transformed into a 10-win threat.
BigDre's 647 career wins and 38 playoff victories suddenly feel very relevant again.
7. Commish Jeff — Lions ⬇️1
12–4 | Previous #6 | SIM W 31–10 vs Bears
Week 18: Packers
Detroit reaches 12 victories, but a SIM win doesn't erase the 59–38 loss to Shawty in Jeff's last actual game.
The Lions remain dangerous, and Jeff owns an actual victory over BigReub.
Week 18 against Boobie gives him an excellent opportunity to rebuild momentum before the postseason.
8. CheeferD — Eagles
9–7 | Previous #8 | W 23–21 vs 49ers
Week 18: Giants
Cheefer survives.
Philadelphia's 23–21 victory wasn't dominant, but it extends one of Season 87's best turnarounds.
0–4 became 9–7.
That's a 9–3 run, including actual victories over Witness and Knight.
Now comes the ultimate test.
#2 Shawtypizzle.
If Cheefer wins that game, another major jump is coming.
9. Boobie_MTZ7 — Packers
10–6 | Previous #9 | W 31–10 vs Texans
Week 18: Lions
Boobie gets another actual win.
After BigReub ended Green Bay's four-game winning streak, the Packers responded by beating Houston convincingly 31–10.
Green Bay now has ten wins and still owns one of the season's biggest victories: 38–17 over MMX.
Jeff vs Boobie should be excellent.
🔥 10. Coach QKP35 — Ravens ⬆️1
11–5 | Previous #11 | W 51–34 vs Bengals
Week 18: Steelers
That's a response.
One week after Snoop snapped Baltimore's long winning streak, QKP exploded for 51 points against Cincinnati.
Baltimore reaches 11 wins and returns to the Top 10.
With Pittsburgh waiting in Week 18, QKP has an excellent opportunity to finish 12–5.
11. Krayzie300 — Panthers ⬇️1
10–6 | Previous #10 | L 41–21 vs Seahawks
Week 18: Falcons
Carolina's momentum takes a major hit.
Krayzie had won four of his previous five actual games before Knight controlled the Panthers by 20.
That drops Carolina outside the Top 10.
And Week 18 isn't easy.
BigReg has won four consecutive actual games.
🚀 12. BigReg — Falcons ⬆️2
9–7 | Previous #14 | W 34–23 vs Saints
Week 18: Panthers
Atlanta is officially hot.
BigReg ends AJ's four-game winning streak and extends his own actual winning streak to four games.
Cleveland. Washington. Tampa Bay. New Orleans.
All four went down.
Now BigReg gets #11 Carolina with a chance to finish the regular season with five straight.
13. AJ072694 — Saints ⬇️1
9–7 | Previous #12 | L 34–23 vs Falcons
Week 18: Buccaneers
AJ's remarkable run finally ends.
The Saints had won four consecutive actual games, including victories over Cincinnati, Carolina and Witness.
One loss to a surging Atlanta team doesn't erase that.
AJ stays firmly in the upper half.
14. Mindenplaya — Patriots ⬇️1
11–5 | Previous #13 | W 38–16 vs Broncos
Week 18: Dolphins
Minden earns a convincing actual victory and somehow slides one spot only because BigReg forces his way upward.
New England controlled Mack 38–16 and reaches 11 wins.
Now Minden gets a massive opportunity.
#3 Miami.
A victory over BigReub would be one of Minden's best wins of the season.
15. KnightNoles — Seahawks ⬆️1
10–6 | Previous #16 | W 41–21 vs Panthers
Week 18: Rams
The losing streak is over.
After dropping three straight actual games to Shawty, Cheefer and MMX, Knight responded by hammering a 10-win Carolina team 41–21.
That's a quality victory.
Now the four-time champion gets a rematch against MMX.
A win there would completely restore Seattle's momentum heading into the postseason.
16. Jfon — Bengals ⬇️1
9–7 | Previous #15 | L 51–34 vs Ravens
Week 18: Browns
Cincinnati's defense gets overwhelmed again.
Jfon has now allowed at least 31 points in five consecutive actual games.
The offense can score with almost anybody, but giving up 51 to Baltimore sends Cincinnati down another spot.
Snoop is next.
17. MrRoclo — Colts
8–7 | Previous #17 | W 32–26 vs Browns
Week 18: Jaguars
Roclo gets back above .500.
Indianapolis survived Cleveland 32–26, giving Roclo another useful actual victory.
But Week 18 is significantly tougher.
BigDre has won five consecutive actual games.
18. Snooppanther — Browns
9–7 | Previous #18 | L 32–26 vs Colts
Week 18: Bengals
The Baltimore upset didn't become a streak.
Snoop followed his 22–20 win over QKP with a six-point loss to Indianapolis.
Cleveland is now 1–5 over its last six team games.
Bengals-Browns gives both coaches a chance to end the regular season positively.
🚀 19. Canesbucs1 — Jets ⬆️1
6–10 | Previous #20 | W 45–21 vs Vikings
Week 18: Bills
Canes delivers another dominant actual performance.
First came the 43–14 victory over Mack.
Now the seven-time champion beats Minnesota 45–21.
The overall record prevents a huge climb, but Canes is beginning to look much more dangerous than a typical six-win coach.
20. TSG_Lee34 — Cowboys ⬇️1
6–10 | Previous #19 | L 35–3 vs Giants
Week 18: Commanders
Ouch.
Two weeks after stunning #1 MMX, Dallas has lost consecutive actual games to BigDre and Shawty.
The latest was especially rough: 35–3.
The MMX upset keeps TSG from falling farther.
21. Domi_TSX — Bears
6–10 | Previous #21 | SIM L 31–10 vs Lions
Week 18: Vikings
Another SIM loss means very little ranking punishment.
But the team record is now staggering.
Chicago began 6–0.
The Bears enter Week 18 6–10.
That's ten consecutive team losses.
22. Bengalsonly_7 — Commanders
6–10 | Previous #22 | L 43–27 vs Jaguars
Week 18: Cowboys
Washington couldn't build on its 38–14 win over Minnesota.
BigDre scored 43 and sent the Commanders back into the loss column.
Dallas presents a much more manageable Week 18 matchup.
23. Latinyank77478 — 49ers
5–11 | Previous #23 | L 23–21 vs Eagles
Week 18: Cardinals
San Francisco loses again, but this was much different from the 59–14 disaster against Kansas City.
Latin pushed surging Philadelphia to the limit before falling 23–21.
The loss still counts, but the performance was considerably more respectable.
24. Coach QC — Texans
8–8 | Previous #24 | L 31–10 vs Packers
Week 18: Titans
Houston has completely lost its momentum.
After reaching 8–5, QC has dropped three consecutive actual games to Jacksonville, Philadelphia and Green Bay.
The combined score:
88–31.
Tennessee gives QC a chance to finish above .500.
25. MackDaddy — Broncos
4–12 | Previous #25 | L 38–16 vs Patriots
Week 18: Chargers
Mack's brief two-game winning streak ends decisively.
New England beat Denver by 22, dropping the six-time champion to 4–12.
The résumé is legendary.
Season 87 has not been.
26. AssuredFame — Titans ⬆️1
4–12 | Previous #27 | W 20–13 vs Steelers
Week 18: Texans
Assured has quietly won consecutive actual games.
Tennessee followed its 23–15 victory over Las Vegas by beating Pittsburgh 20–13.
That's enough to move the Titans another spot upward.
Houston is next.
27. ELBuccs — Buccaneers ⬇️1
5–11 | Previous #26 | L 28–10 vs Rams
Week 18: Saints
Tampa's losing streak reaches six actual games.
The latest came against an elite MMX team, so there isn't much additional punishment.
AJ gets a chance for revenge in Week 18.
28. BuffaloBill — Bills
4–12 | Previous #28 | L 24–7 vs Dolphins
Week 18: Jets
Buffalo has now scored just 10 points across its last two actual games.
The Bills finish with Canes, who just put 45 on Minnesota.
29. ThaTiger74 — Vikings
2–14 | Previous #29 | L 45–21 vs Jets
Week 18: Bears
Minnesota's actual losing streak reaches five.
The defense has surrendered 224 points during that stretch.
Week 18 provides an interesting matchup against a Chicago team that hasn't won a team game since starting 6–0.
Someone finally gets relief.
30. Lynx — Chargers
3–13 | Previous #30 | SIM L 28–14 vs Chiefs
Week 18: Broncos
The latest result was simulated, so Lynx remains where he was.
Week 18 against Denver will actually tell us something.
31. Big_Country1112 — Raiders
3–13 | Previous #31 | L 35–21 vs Cardinals
Week 18: Chiefs
Big Country has now lost three consecutive actual games.
Unfortunately, his finale comes against the #1 team.
If Las Vegas somehow beats Kansas City, it would easily become Big Country's biggest win of the season.
32. Remo357 — Steelers
1–14 | Previous #32 | L 20–13 vs Titans
Week 18: Ravens
Pittsburgh showed some fight again.
But another competitive loss is still another loss.
At 1–14, Remo remains #32 entering the final week.
⭐ WEEK 18 GAMES TO WATCH
🔥 GAME OF THE WEEK — #2 Giants vs #8 Eagles
Shawtypizzle vs CheeferD
This one could have huge implications.
Shawty is 13–1 since starting 0–2 and is pushing Kansas City for #1.
Cheefer is 9–3 since starting 0–4, with victories over Witness and Knight.
Two of the league's greatest in-season turnarounds collide in the finale.
If Cheefer wins, the Top 10 gets shaken up.
If Shawty wins convincingly, his argument for #1 becomes even stronger.
🏆 #4 Rams vs #15 Seahawks
MMXCalibur vs KnightNoles
Rematch time.
MMX beat Knight 33–27 in Week 16.
Knight just snapped his three-game losing streak by beating Carolina 41–21.
MMX is trying to stay among the championship favorites. Knight is trying to prove Seattle is back.
💥 #3 Dolphins vs #14 Patriots
BigReub0904 vs Mindenplaya
Miami is 14–2.
New England is 11–5.
BigReub has been nearly unstoppable since taking over the Dolphins, but Minden just beat Mack 38–16.
A Patriots upset could shake up the final rankings.
⚔️ #6 Jaguars vs #17 Colts
BigDre245 vs MrRoclo
Five consecutive actual victories for BigDre.
Indianapolis just beat Cleveland.
Jacksonville has gone from midseason disappointment to one of the hottest teams in the league.
Can Roclo stop the run?
👀 #7 Lions vs #9 Packers
Commish Jeff vs Boobie_MTZ7
This could be a shootout.
Green Bay owns a signature victory over MMX and just beat Houston 31–10.
Jeff's last actual game was the 59–38 loss to Shawty.
Both coaches could use a statement before the postseason.

👑 THREE COACHES. ONE FINAL WEEK.
Kansas City remains #1.
But this time, the Chiefs didn't strengthen their grip on the throne.
Their Week 17 victory was simulated.
While Kansas City watched, Shawty won 35–3 and BigReub won 24–7.
That creates a fascinating situation entering the final week.
Bubbaduran07 — 14–2
The current #1. Three dominant actual victories before the Week 17 SIM. Losses only to Witness and MMX.
Shawtypizzle — 13–3
Started 0–2. Has gone 13–1 since. Just beat Dallas 35–3 after previously dropping 59 on Jeff.
BigReub0904 — 14–2
An extraordinary career .82 winning percentage and only one actual loss since taking over Miami.
Then there's MMX at 13–3, who owns the head-to-head victory over Bubba.
Week 18 gives each contender one final opportunity to make his case.
Kansas City gets Las Vegas.
Shawty gets surging Philadelphia.
BigReub gets 11-win New England.
MMX gets four-time champion Knight.
And when those games are finished, there won't be another regular-season week to change the argument.
Kansas City still owns the throne.
But entering Week 18, Shawty and BigReub are close enough to reach for the crown.
