AFL Pick Results and Playoff Power Rankings, Round 2

Pick Standings

Two more upsets (very nearly three; Philadelphia won on a last-play TD), and the 6-10 Grand Rapids Rampage have somehow played their way to the penultimate game of the playoffs. Even with their winning streak, their still ranked well back of all the other remaining teams.

Power Rankings

Where should Grand Rapids "really" be? Who knows. Given the wacky results of this league, APR's 62.9% pick success seems pretty remarkable. And in spite of their dominating power index, Philadelphia could be in trouble: they had a late-season losing streak with HFA still on the line, and just barely beat an upset-minded New York team.
