No doubt. But I am wondering if Canada is stronger than USA this season.

I think so. And I'm in USA.

Agreed. I'm in USA, too, and Canada >> USA

Canada was the toughest I have seen in my many seasons here

Canada is a team deeper than USA but I believe the USA top 6 is stronger personally.

What's wild is how on par the top 6 teams in USA are.
Anyone of them has the team and staff to win against any other of the top 5.

Cincinnati has the wins going for them for sure (and deserve first place)
but the wins were not by the kind of margins that indicate dominance.
Choppers by 3
Kings by 4
Palm Bay by 7
Broccoli by 8
and Austin by 15, which is the only top 6 six team they defeated decisively.

Whereas in Canada, Oseberg and Burnside handled most of their opponents by much larger margins.

So it looks to me that while the USA conference is more even. Which conference will put the strongest team into the League Playoffs is unknown.

Eh, Cincy had Palm Bay pretty well beaten down, tbh. It was 24-10 until we scored a garbage-time TD with 1:21 left. I'd say Cincy won pretty decisively.

Cincy loss to Cobden right? Carry on...

Canada for at least this season is both stronger at the top and deeper. USA usually has been the stronger conference but that isn't the case this time around.

If you want to believe that the offense that scored 10 against Cobden is the same that ran through USA 15-0, go right on ahead. They did however set the pace for my fix's though. So there is that.

league loss = league loss

Well ok we can try and pretend that Cobden is better than Cincy if you guys would like. Carry on.

Cobden was one of those wildly inconsistent teams this season that seemed like they could beat anybody and also lose to anybody. They upset Cincy, The Real McCoys and Puffington and also played the Duckies within 10. But Cobden also got stomped by Vicious Circle and Dallas and lost to Victoria as well.

Also, Cincy is 14-1 and Cobden is 9-6, so...

Most likely true, but conjecture doesn't override fact

This statement could describe a myriad of teams in CPL. Its not so much inconsistent as when you have a bunch of excellent teams that are fairly close in talent, you are going to have a wide variation in results.

I think Cobden more than most teams matches up particularly well with some teams and poorly with others. Cincy is better overall.
