2007 Power Rankings
1 Chicago Maulers 2007 Record:
4-2-0
Streak:
Won 2
Previous ranking: 3
The Maulers return to the top of the Madden League mountain has been a hard road. The offense has returned to its smash-mouth philosophy and its pass attempts have slowly dwindled to the fewest in the league. Meanwhile, the defense has found new life, pressuring quarterbacks and running lanes with equal aplomb. DE Dwight Freeney leads all defenders with 8 sacks.

2 Twin City Terror 2007 Record:
3-3-0
Streak:
Won 1
Previous ranking: 1
The Terror have been the surprise of the season's first half. Now its time for them to make their move. The defense is stout and is darn right stingy in the red zone, allowing the fewest scores when their backs are against their own goal line. The offense prefers to travel by air and can score from anywhere. WR Marvin Harrison leads all receivers with 118 yards per game and 8 total touchdowns.

3 Colorado Rage 2007 Record:
3-3-0
Streak:
Lost 1
Previous ranking: 2t
All reasons for Colorado's struggles point to a familiar problem: The Rage can score a ton of points but can't seem to stop anyone. The answer may lie in changes to personnel or scheme, but confidence -- be it over- or a lack thereof -- is perhaps the most likely culprit. Steady quarterback play is a good place to start, and the Rage have a great one in Carson Palmer and his league-leading efficiency.

4 Anchorage Yeti 2007 Record:
2-4-0
Streak:
Lost 2
Previous ranking: 2t
The Yeti have dropped 4 of the last 5 games and the wheels appear all but off the cart. The defense has been hammered on the ground and needs a back-to-the-basics approach.  Still, for all the struggles, they are keeping teams out of the end-zone, and that has kept games close. While QB Tom Brady leads the league in first downs, he's also first in pass attempts, and needs help from the Anchorage running game.

Hello Madden fans ...

The Swam took it on the chin the past couple of weeks, hitting just 1-of-4 after a .500 start.  I'm money with the over/under though, missing just 2-of-8. 

Let's see what weeks 5 and 6 bring ...

Chicago Maulers +4 @ Anchorage Yeti
>>> The Maulers are working on all cylinders. If the Yeti can't stop the run it will be a long day for Tom Brady. The odds makers must be having a field day with this spread. >>>
The Swami says:
Take the points and the over (37). Maulers 28-27.

Colorado Rage +3 @ Twin City Terror
>>> The Terror have become a very surprising team, playing sound defense and consistent offense. The Rage on the other hand can be very explosive at anytime. Their inconsistency, however, may be their downfall. >>>
The Swami says:
Lay the points and take the under (70). Terror 24-20.
 
Week Six

Twin City Terror
+7 @ Chicago Maulers
>>> The Maulers are very tough to beat at home, especially when they play to the crowd. The key to this game for the Terror is turnovers. They need to create and not commit. >>>
The Swami says:
Take the points and the over (55).  Terror 31-30.

Anchorage Yeti +4 @ Colorado Rage
>>> The Rage have owned the Yeti, beating them twice in the first half of the season. Look for Anchorage to play better defense and start to avenge their losses. >>>
The Swami says:
Take the points and the over (49).  Yeti 42-40.
