NFL 2009 Survivor Pool - Updated Week 5 Team Rankings

Before posting week 5 pick recommendations I wanted to share the updated team rankings (which are an ever changing/evolving input into my Excel survivor pool pick optimizer). As you know from the earlier post, each team's score is based on their point per game differential, yards gained minus yards allowed per game, and ESPN power rank. The table below has all of these things plus each team's final score in the rightmost column. The teams are listed from best to worst.

Team	Yard Differential	Point Differential	ESPN Power Rank	Yard Index	Points Index	Power Rank Index	Final Score
NYG	168.7	10.8	2	100.0	78.5	96.8	91.8
