Quick and the dead rankings (2040 Week 16 Final)

They would remain #1 thru the first 5 weeks and after a split in week 6, they regained the #1 spot in week 7. From week 8-11, we saw 4 different #1s until the Hammers reclaimed the top spot in week 12. Week 13 saw the Monarchs hold it until week 14 when the Hammers reclaimed the top spot but the Mellotrons grabbed the top spot in week 15 and they best the Hammers in week 16 to lock up the top ranking for the season.
From the preseason rankings, 5 of the 10 teams stayed in the top 10 with the others finishing #11, #12, #13, #22 & #24.
