No matter how you splice it Atlanta is the best team in tge league followed closely by Memphis in the power rankings. Dakota or Pittaburgh is the top team in the AXC depending on which ranking you want to use.
The top 10 in both power rankings are the same teams in a slightly different order while New York is undeniably the worst team in the XFL and will be drafting the #1 overall pick in the upcoming draft.

We have 2 games remaining and the rankings has Atlanta (139) alone at the top followed by 4 teams (Memphis/ Providence/Pittsburgh/Dakota) with ranking scores above 100 followed by Arizona (90).
The top 6 ranked teams have all clinched the postseason and 5 of them have clinched thier division with only Memphis a Wildcard mainly because they are in the same division as Atlanta.
Of the top 6 teams Arizona (.490) has had the toughest schedule followed by Pittsburgh (.485) then Atlanta & Memphis (.474). Dakota (.398) & Providence (.383) have had the 30th & 32nd toughest schedule despite being in divisions where 3 teams are still alive vying for the postseason.
Interestingly, of the 6 teams that have clinched their division, none have had a schedule of opponents above .500 and 3 of them have had the easiest schedule. Providence (32nd), Dakota (30th) & Buffalo (28th) all have double digit wins thanks in part to their schedule which goes to show that in a highly competitive league, strength of schedule matters.

Through week 15 and we have the 14 playoff teams decided and what is encouraging is the top 14 in both rankings are the actual 14 playoff teams which seems to indicate the rankings system works.
Clearly Atlanta is a even money favorite to win thier 5th straight XFL Title with a handful of teams poised to try and take them out including Providece, Memphis & Arizona.
The rankings give me concerns for the rest of the playoff teams including Dakota who despite being ranked 5th in the original rankings & 6th in the adjusted rankings have had the easiest schedule through 15 weeks. The light schedule means they will enter the postseason being untested. Dakota is 2-2 versus playoff teams while every other AXC playoff team has at least 6 games versus playoff teams.
AXC RECORD VERSUS PLAYOFF TEAMS
PITTSBURGH 5-1 HOUSTON 4-3 DAKOTA 2-2 VANCOUVER 2-4 KANSAS CITY 2-4 BUFFALO 2-4 CINCINNATI 2-4
If we need any more evidence just how dominate the Atlanta Dominators actually are, they are 7-0 versus playoff teams this season. Every NXC team has at least 6 games versus playoff teams except Montana with just 3 games. Philadelphia is the wise guy pick to make it outta the NXC since they have played 8 playoff teams through 15 weeks and enter the postseason very battle tested.
