Here's this week's Power Rankings updated this morning.

The Redskins have taken over the top spot, which I think is where I'd rank them were I doing this subjectively.  Three teams moved at least 10 spots from last week's rankings.  Miami's win over the Chargers moved them from 25th to 11th.  Arizona and Buffalo moved in opposite directions based on the outcome of their game.  Both the Steelers and Giants dropped despite winning, though only the Giants fell five spots while improving their pythagenport winning percentage.  They fell entirely due to strength of schedule.

UPDATE: I thought about it a bit and then decided to steal the idea of reducing opponent adjustments by 50%.  The new rankings certainly agree more with DVOA, so if you believe in those numbers these are better:

Chargers Offensive Success Rate:

Chargers Defensive Stop Rate:

What jumps out at me is that the Chargers were actually more effective at stopping Miami out of the Wildcat than on regular run plays.  The other item that leaps out is that the Chargers couldn't stop the Dolphins at all when they passed when going no-huddle.  Also, just in general the Chargers' defense held up rather well on first down and defended the pass well on third downs.

Looking deeper into the numbers we see that the Chargers were stopping passes to non-tight ends at a rate of about 52% (12/23) but only stopped passes to the tight ends at a rate of 29% (2/7).  This really needs to be fixed.  Also, there was a huge difference in stop rate against runs by Brown (33%, 8/24) and Williams (77%, 10/13), though that says more about the relative of quality of those two backs more than anything I'd guess.

No Chargers receiver was successful more than 50% with only Chambers (2/4) and Sproles even reaching that level (1/2).  Gates (0/4) and Manumaleuna (0/1) were without even one successful play and Tomlinson's receiving success rate was an abominable 11% (1/9).  Neither Davis (33%, 1/3) nor Jackson (40%, 2/5) were particularly productive, but they were at least bringing up the team average on the day.

The Chargers didn't look much better running the ball.  Chambers was unsuccessful on his one attempt.  Sproles was successful on only one of his six (17%) and the team's most successful rusher, Tomlinson was only good for a rate of 42% (5/12).

Additional commentary to follow.... Don't be shy about that Rec button...

I think these tables give a better idea of how various fighters are thought of by the MMA online community than point totals do, so that's the reason behind this.  And I'd like to thank Kid Nate who is now providing me with the Meta-Rankings spreadsheets and making my life much easier when it comes to producing these.  The Lightweight Meta-Rankings tables should be up sooner than later.  As always, feel free to hit that Rec button.  Also, since people kept asking who ranked so-and-so where, I'm including that table again.

There was sort of a lot of movement between this week and last, but that's to be expected with so few games in the books.

The Cardinals, Bengals and Broncos are all no longer in the top ten, so that's nice.
