Power rankings system devised and compiled weekly by Stemshul. “Expert” analysis by paradroid. The great and mighty Stemshul. Welcome to Week 9! We have a new wrinkle in the very secret formula for our power rankings: points scored and allowed are now factored in! The Stemshul behind the curtain may or may not at some point explain exactly how this applied to the teeming…
OK, this week is going to be purely math, no opinions. Im going to figure out who will win each matchup based on the current 64tacos power rankings.

Power rankings system devised and compiled weekly by Stemshul. “Expert” analysis by paradroid. Lots of things happened this weekend, so let's do some random thoughts and observations rather than honing in on just a few teams. Philadelphia is the only remaining unbeaten team, and even those high on them before the season probably wouldn't have predicted that. I can guarantee nobody associated with 64tacos…
Last week, rather than picking individual games, I picked who I thought was going to win each division at the end of the season. Time will be the ultimate judge but my predictions held up pretty well as Sundays games were played. Now back to picking a couple of individual games. Lions @ CowboysIn my preseason Lions predictions I had the Detroit coming out…
Power rankings system devised and compiled weekly by Stemshul. “Expert” analysis by paradroid. Welcome back to the 64tacos NFL power rankings. I'm feeling pretty good because the Lions neither invented a new way to lose by exploiting a heretofore undiscovered rule book loophole to their own detriment or shit the bed by just being badly outplayed for 60 minutes. That's right, they didn't play!…
Lets just call last week "Bruno" because we are not going to talk about it. The Lions have week 6 off so they cant blow another one! Rather than picking individual games, shift gears. Now that the Power Rankings are starting to show some usable data lets talk about playoffs. Heres who I think the division winners will be. AFC East - Buffalo BillsThe…
Welcome back to the Power Rankings! The question today is about teams #2 and #3: Are the Vikings and Giants any good? Our rankings say yes, and twin 4-1 records support the case. The other 4-1 teams, the Chiefs, Bills, and Cowboys, are pretty convincing. Buffalo and Kansas City are Super Bowl contenders and have been for a while. Dallas I'm a little more…
Me as I watch the Lions throw away another game. Fact: The Lions have outscored every team in the league. 140 points through 4 weeks.Fact: Goff, while flawed, is not the problem.Fact: The Lions have given up more points than any other team in the league. 141 points through 4 weeks.Fact: The second worst defense is has only given up 108 points.Fact: The Seahawks…
Photo of independent specialist formerly employed by the NFL. The big story of the week was Thursday night's very unpleasant Tua Tagovailoa injury. The hit didn't look too bad initially. The defender swung Tua down by the hips as the quarterback released the pass and Tua's head struck the ground after his torso landed, which was not really noticeable live. The closeup angle which…
OK, Im not saying Im a football genius, but you can. The Lions gave the game away in the last seconds. They succeeded when 1. They ran the ball and 2. They got all up in Cousins business. Then, they failed when 1. They let Cousins have time in the pocket (Stop playing prevent defense! It doesnt work!) and 2. The Vikings took away…
