The Run-In

Remaining schedule difficulty, hardest first — Week 9
Team Opp PPG Difficulty (0–100) Trend
1 Pigskins 108.7 65
2 Vitside 108.3 64
3 The Dream 106.9 62
4 Fire Ready 107.0 61
5 Dark Magicians 105.8 60
6 Computer Jocks 104.1 58
7 Da Dangsters 103.0 56
8 Mariachi Ninjas 99.7 52
9 Wascawy Wabbits 99.2 51
10 Midwestside 97.1 50
11 Dead Cap 95.5 48
12 Music City 94.8 47
13 Bring The Pain 93.8 44
14 Mavericks 90.8 41
15 Gridiron Geeks 92.0 41
16 Cowboy Up 89.4 38

Boom! I'm told Pacific Pigskins now carry the hardest remaining schedule at difficulty 65, with opponents averaging 108.7 points per game. Vitside Mafia (64) and Running down the Dream (62) are right behind them on gauntlets that will test every roster. Check the Gauntlet rankings for the full picture.

On the flip side, Cowboy Up owns the easiest road at difficulty 38, facing opponents averaging just 89.4 points per game. Money is nice, but championships are better, and that cupcake run is a gift. If you think your own schedule is fixable, the trade builder is where you start. Full rankings are waiting at the Gauntlet rankings.
