2025 Imperial League Review - (Weeks 1-4)

[Beeznik]

hmm, well to hijack Vito's thread, some of my observations after 4 games are...

1. The NC East looks to be as brutally tough as everyone thought it would be.
2. Carolina's slow start is a surprise, but there is tons of time to go on a big run.
3. SLC's Gabe Patterson on pace for 5k yards and WR Brad Harris on pace for almost 2k yards is a big surprise
4. Texas taking the early lead in the NC south isn't really a surprise, I knew they were good, they may give Georgia a good fight for the division this year.

After 4 games, I don't see any reason to change my prediction of LON and NWK in the big dance.

I was just looking at some of our numbers, and there is just no way that this can continue. Crapo has only caught 39% of his passes, Durham is way down in YPC. I think we are the beneficiaries of some terrible roles so far. The 17 penalties in week 1, 7 fumbles in week 2, allude to this. Hopefully, things improve.

After 6 weeks...

The top 2 teams in each NC division are undefeated against the AC.

zbuckley knows what he's doing.

London is right back on track. Fresno might be the best Fresno we've seen yet.

Bucky Mattingly is fitting in very nice in Murfreesboro.

Norfolk's Terrell Hanks leads the IFL in rushing yardage. Glad to see an identity forming again in Viper Land.

with our upset loss, we went from the power rating mountain top to halfway down the mountain.

we were weak at CB going into the season and losing our all pro killed us

With a big win against Dakota I fell from 1st to 6th or so... with the bye week I jumped back to 1st. Strange goings on with the Power Rankings but one thing's for sure: It's better to not play than beat down the Spirit.

I wanna know how these two corners in Vancouver's Jeffrey Sanderson fell to 28 and Lawrence's Carl Kovacs fell to #2 in the 2nd round. Hahahaha...man, I need 1st rounders bad. I know I wouldn't have let them fall that far.

well, it does look at the whole picture. early in the season there can be massive swings due to opponents winning %. if you played a team that was 3-0 and beat them, your PR looks good. if said team loses its next 4 games, the PR will drop.
I'm assuming that's what happened with me.
