Week Four power rankings
By Andy Hanacek, Associate editor and XFL analyst
|
There’s a clear-cut No. 1 now, Orlando, and
a clear-cut No. 8 as well in Chicago. The quality of play seems to be getting better and
better in most teams, and this week it seemed as though the offenses caught up to the
defenses in many cases.
Orlando Rage (4-0, last week ranked No. 1) — This well-rounded team
is looking unbeatable right now, but we’re not halfway through the season yet, so
don’t hold your breath.
Las Vegas Outlaws (3-1, No. 3) — A plus-12 turnover ratio will get
you far in any football league. Even with Mark Grieb.
Los Angeles Xtreme (2-2, No. 4) — Paging the Los Angeles Coliseum
grounds crew …
San Francisco Demons (2-2, No. 5) — Barnes’ performance makes
you wonder what Pawlawski might’ve done with a full second half.
Birmingham Bolts (2-2, No. 2) — Didn’t even play the Rage
closely. Their game made the Hitmen-Enforcers game look
interesting.
Memphis Maniax (2-2, No. 6) — In a bottleneck, someone’s got
to be the one tailgating at the back of the line.
NY/NJ Hitmen (1-3, No. 8) — Let’s see the New York fans try to
make clever signs about benching Richardson.
Chicago Enforcers (0-4, No. 7) — Fans saw the Bears’ logo
showing through at midfield and thought they were booing Cade.
