Who’s hot? ELF Power Rankings after Week 10
Felix Pahl
© Lars KauzThe race for the playoffs is heating up, and the competition in the European League of Football has never been closer. After Week 10, only two teams - the Nordic Storm and the Vienna Vikings - have officially secured their playoff spots. But with just a few weeks left in the regular season, every game is now crucial for the rest of the league. Here’s how the teams stack up in our updated Power Rankings after Week 10.
1. Vienna Vikings
Previous Rank: 1
The Vikings stayed cold and focused in their win over the Wrocław Panthers. They can clinch the East Division in Week 11.
2. Nordic Storm
Previous Rank: 2
Still undefeated and now officially North Division champions. While Storm's defense had a shaky game against Berlin, their offense exploded - with four receivers over 100 receiving yards.
3. Stuttgart Surge
Previous Rank: 4
Stuttgart dominated against the Musketeers, avenging their earlier loss. A strong all-around performance moves them up one spot.
4. Munich Ravens
Previous Rank: 3
The Ravens keep winning, but another slow start hurt them. In this crucial part of the season, they can’t afford more sleepy beginnings.
5. Paris Musketeers
Previous Rank: 5
Despite the loss, Paris stays at No. 5. Their defense remains one of the best in the league, but the offense must become more consistent.
6. Madrid Bravos
Previous Rank: 8
A dominant win boosts Madrid to sixth place. Their playoff chances are alive - but they must keep that momentum going in Week 11.
7. Raiders Tirol
Previous Rank: 6
The Raiders drop after losing to the Ravens despite a two-touchdown lead. They’re still a top team, but questions about their playoff readiness remain.
8. Rhein Fire
Previous Rank: 7
Fire slides down a spot. They beat Hamburg, but only after the Sea Devils lost their starting QB - a win that leaves more questions than answers.

9. Frankfurt Galaxy
Previous Rank: 9
Frankfurt had a huge second quarter against Cologne and cruised to a big win. Their new imports, Jameson Wang and Bijon Harris, are making an impact.
10. Wroclaw Panthers
Previous Rank: 10
The Panthers were clearly outclassed by Vienna. Their playoff hopes are alive, but their next matchup against the Ravens will be critical.
11. Prague Lions
Previous Rank: 11
Prague barely escaped with a win over the Enthroners - but it was their first-ever ELF home victory. They’ll need a stronger performance against the Mercenaries.
12. Hamburg Sea Devils
Previous Rank: 12
Hamburg led Rhein Fire at halftime but fell apart after QB Micah Leon’s injury. With new QB Jaylen Tregle, they’ll look to play spoiler in their final games.

13. Berlin Thunder
Previous Rank: 13
Berlin scored 35 points against Nordic Storm - but their defense allowed 53. No improvement in ranking, but their offense shows promise.
14. Fehérvár Enthroners
Previous Rank: 14
The Enthroners pushed Prague to the limit. Their new QB is still adjusting, but the team showed grit in a close battle.
15. Helvetic Mercenaries
Previous Rank: 15
A rough outing for the Mercenaries, who were blown out by Madrid. Their offense never found a rhythm with their new QB.
16. Cologne Centurions
Previous Rank: 16
Cologne started strong against Frankfurt, but a disastrous second quarter cost them the game. There’s still some fight left in this team - but wins remain elusive.
The final stretch
With just a few weeks left in the regular season, every game will feel like a playoff battle. Teams like Rhein Fire, Raiders Tirol, Madrid Bravos, and Paris Musketeers are fighting for every spot, while the Vikings and Storm are chasing the top seeds. Expect the intensity to rise - and the surprises to keep coming - as we head toward the postseason.
