SKC is now 19/34ths of the way through the regular season (as the Men in Blazers would say) sitting in 4th place in the Western Conference. They have multiple games in hand on every team in the top 6 and still have the 2nd highest Points Per Game. FC Dallas leads the way in that category and the Supporters' Shield race, but I don't think anybody in KC can be afraid of them having beat them 10-2 the last two meetings.
Dallas also leads the way in the latest MLS Power Rankings, with Sporting KC and DC United at 2 and 3.
