FCD and several of their fellow MLS teams had a bye week. Cobra.....err...the Portland Timbers, the only real challenger at the top of the rankings, stumbled at Columbus Crew SC this weekend. So FCD stayed home, and solidified their grip at the top of the heap.
Several sites did not bother to update their rankings from last week.

We like to ease into these things; it’s better to build the ordering on actual 2017 achievement and bungle, minus the distracting pull of basing the present day on predictions and expectations.
