I think that Cassius Brown and the Dallas Bird dogs are well on their way towards winning the Developmental Simulation Football League's Ultimini. I think this for a plethora of reasons, but I think the main reason is that Cassius Brown, also known as Cash Brown, will act as a leader for this up and coming team full of young stars and bright talent. There are so many guys on this team and Cassius Cash Brown will be able to lead them to victory along with the QB. Another reason is their defense. Their defense is fantastic and will be able to stop the running teams of the developmental simulation football league we've all seen since the days of old. There are so many guys on this bird dogs team that can go ahead and annihilate the competition. For all we know the other teams don't know what is coming. I see so much potential for this dallas bird dogs team to do well in this developmental simulation football league's ultimini race and I don't see many other teams coming close to even beating these guys. This is seriously one of the best teams we have seen in a long time and I'm hoping to see them win it.

For Brandon Booker and the Philadelphia Liberty, the playoffs essentially start in Week 12. If the Liberty lose at home to the Sailfish, then Sarasota will lock up the third seed while Philadelphia's season will be over. Booker has been playing at a potential Defensive Rookie of the Year level after being selected with the fourth overall pick, with his three interceptions tied-1st among rookies and his 16 passes defended tied-2nd among rookies. Continuing this good play will be crucial if Philadelphia are to make the playoffs and then be successful in them, as they look ahead to matchups against potent passing offenses with talented wide receivers.
The favourites, and likely number one seeds in their respective conferences - as they were last year - are the Yellowknife Wraiths and Orange County Otters. Both teams sit at 9-2, and the Wraiths have clinched the number one seed in the NSFC. In the ASFC Orange County needs one more win,or one more loss from each of San Jose and New Orleans, in order to achieve the same.
The dark horse team is the Austin Copperheads, currently 4th in the ASFC. They made several moves to try and win a championship this year, such as trading for running back Ryan Leaf Jr, and much of the core of their team is S15 and S16 players who are at the peaks of their careers. They're on a win streak and control their own destiny, with games against San Jose and New Orleans that could catapult them into the playoffs.

In the NSFL I believe the wraiths will come out on top. The wraiths overall I believe have the best rounded team. On the offensive side of the ball we have our veteran quarterback Cooter Bigsby leading the team to victory. Of course Bigsby has some wonderful weapons with Nate Swift, Bender Rodriguez, and Mathias Hanyadi by Bigsby’s side. On the defensive side of the ball we have a completely scary defense. Starting with a scaring defensive line that can rush most quarterbacks on every play. But even if the defensive line can’t get to the quarterback we have a great secondary that can bail the defensive line out. Our linebackers and corners and also not to be reckoned with. With many picks and sacks under the defense’s belt there is no team out there that can stop the oncoming train that is the wraiths. Most people believed we would be last in the conference and here the wraiths are with the number one spot in the conference. I believe James Cho made a vital impact on the journey to where the wraiths are with 30 tackles 14 which were tackles for loss and 5 sacks as a rookie I believe made an impact without a doubt. I believe James Cho will continually make an impact on future games with the wraiths.

The Colorado Yeti has secured a playoff berth for this season, and will most likely secure home field advantage fir the wildcard round if they win tonight's games. All Yeti players are fired up to avenge the painful first round playoff exit that we suffered last season, and go a lot further down the playoffs this time around. And with this talented roster which had both highly explosive offense and suoer suffocating defence which is 2nd in total points allowed. The team is a lot stronger than they had been last season, as they made significant reinforcements through trade (which saw the addition of safety Logan Uchiha to the defence) and most importantly the S22 draft, where they landed several high earning rookies to fill in positions of need. So I think the Yeti got a fairly good chance of finally winning them all this season.
As for William Lim, I think he'll be used in a more significant role than he used to in the regular season. William started the season as WR4, sseing only limited touches for the offence. However, he progressed very nicely through the course of the regular season and had been accumulating a significant amount of catches and yards lately, even recording his first career NSFL touchdown in week 11. I think this trend will be continued and William will be given significant amount of touches in the playoffs. (234)

I haven’t had a lot of time to look around the league to asses who might win in the DSFL playoffs, but in each division it seems as though there is a clear primary contender from each conference: Tijuana in the SFC South, and Minnesota in the NFC North. The Myrtle Beach Buccaneers should have been the primary competition for the Luchadores in the South – they’re one of just three teams in the entire D-League with a positive point differential, and it’s clear as day (+51); their game-end results this season are mind-boggling at best and unfair at worst, as they’ve won just four games on the season so far. The Birddogs, a 6-4 team with a -14 point differential who’s gone .500 in the conference, likely wouldn’t have an extremely important home-field advantage should they face off against Tijuana in the playoffs.
Over in the North, things are somehow stranger in the standings but clearer in terms of likely winner. The Grey Ducks have a whopping +86 point differential – the best in the league – but are just 6-4, an odd mirror to the Birddogs. It seems exceedingly likely that they’ll come out on top of the conference with some four games to go. And we’ll get a preview of one possible championship matchup in Week 11, when the Luchadores host the Grey Ducks. As unlikely as it sounds, they could also end up dropping a couple of their last four games; their schedule includes games against the positive Buccaneers and Luchadores both, even if they have some (arguably) easier games against the Royals and Sea Wolves in the process.
Make no mistake: Tijuana and the Grey Ducks may be our frontrunners, but the 'Any Given Sunday' tagline doesn't apply to professional football without reason.

The Minnesota Grey Ducks are one of the front-runners to win the Ultimini trophy in S22. After starting 1-4, they have turned everything around going 4-1 in their last five games, including most recently a 48-3 wallopping of the Kansas City Coyotes.
The Grey Ducks are a threat on both sides of the ball. They are second in the league in points scored and points against - only 3 behind the Luchadores and 6 behind the Buccaneers respectively. They boast the 2nd most potent passing attack, led by breakout QB Sim Snowbow, and the 4th and 7th leading receivers in Hood and Brooks. They have the third leading rusher in Jamar Lackson, and, in just four games, new addition Zed Keppler has gone for over 300 yards and 3 touchdowns.
On the defensive side of the ball, the Grey Ducks lead the league in tackles-for-loss, sacks, and passes defended, and are tied for 2nd in interceptions. Rookie defensive end Water Chestnut III leads the league in TFL, linebacker Dex Kennedy leads the league in sacks, and veteran safety Buck Thornton leads the league in defensive touchdowns. Cornerback Matt Krause is tied for the lead in passes defended, and he and Thornton have each notched 3 interceptions, tying them for 3rd in the league.
With weapons on both sides of the bal, the Grey Ducks are to be feared heading into the postseason.
