Quick and the dead rankings (2037 Week 1)
We have a new #1 team despite the former #1 Quicksilver beating the #3 Stars by 7 points, the #9 Dust Devils move into the top spot with a 41-3 dismantling of the #4 Black Sharks.
The Buffalo Chips surprisingly moved into the top ten with a convincing 28-3 win over Philly. Buffalo was 6-10 last season and 1-15 the season before and peaked at #13 last season in week 1.
The Stars and Black Sharks fell out of the top ten and we will see if they bounce back in week 2 when the Black Sharks play the #15 Firebirds and the Stars play the #29 Voodoo.
Speaking of Voodoo, it's another season but the North Florida Lizards had no resurrection in week 1 and remain the Deadest of the Dead. The loss in week 1 makes 17 straight losses for the team where their last win was week 16 of the 2035 season over Buffalo. The Lizards have lost 24 of their last 25 games and they will play the #23 Rampage in week 2 where we will find out if the team has any pulse.
The Butcherz started last season being ranked #32 after week 1 and spent all season digging/clawing themselves out of their own grave to peak at #13 and finish at #14. They have once again dug their own grave just not as deep being #26 after week 1 and we will see if they can dig themselves out again this season. It won't easy as they play the #9 Thunderbolts in week 2 but a win could move a ton of dirt!
