With roughly a third of the season behind us, the divisional rankings are starting to harden. None of the top two teams in any division budged this week, although some new teams have managed to wedge their way into a potential playoff berth with those all-important divisional wins.

Still, it traditionally takes at least seven wins to guarantee a ticket to the post-season, and even our best teams still only have four. So there's plenty of time for a shake-up in the standings. But sooner would be better than later for the eight teams who are currently sitting on a losing record. :)

Couplets ahoy!

Our next Game of the Week is a very interesting inter-divisional matchup between two 3-1 teams. Grim And Frostbitten hasn't lost a game since clashing with The Headbangers in Week 1, but the Pacific Coast Pirates have outscored them by an average of 28 points a week and also have a Belichick sitting in their trophy case.

Elsewhere in inter-divisional play, the Beefalo Balls have a chance to grab a third straight win if they can take down the luckless Baystate Wicked Cheatahs, who can't seem to catch themselves a W no matter how many points they score.

Tune in next week for more Predicate Pigskin!
