1 Last: 3 Looked nothing like the team that got pounded 5-0 a few weeks ago. They were comprehensive and ruthless in dismantling RSL. Last Week: Won vs. Real Salt Lake, 4-0

3 Last: 4 That was a statement win – or really a "statements" win. Statement 1: We can score on anybody. Statement 2: We can give up goals in bunches. Fun! Last Week: Won at Portland, 4-3

D-W-W-D-W This Week: Saturday at Philadelphia (7 pm, MLS LIVE)

4 Last: 2 Was it just a trap game, or did Montreal hit on something by sitting deep and inviting the Revs forward? Whatever the case, they now have New York at home – which, historically, is a guaranteed three points. Last Week: Lost at Montreal, 2-0

6 Last: 7 "Opportunistic" and "resilient" are pretty good qualities for any team. They've been able to play to their strengths, and have collected points as a result. Last Week: Won vs. Columbus, 3-2

7 Last: 5 Annihilated by injuries, and now possibly about to lose Uri Rosell for good. A month ago, Sporting looked on the verge of becoming unstoppable, but now they look like a sinking ship. Last Week: Drew vs. New York, 1-1

Lost at D.C., 1-0

8 Last: 10 Pablo Mastroeni seems to have hit on something with this new 4-4-1-1. Special mention for Homegrown attacker Dillon Serna, who brings a bit of 1-v-1 fearlessness to the side. Last Week: Won vs. Houston, 3-0

9 Last: 9 The Galaxy still feel like they're a mile away from clicking the way we'd expected. And the target forward experiment just hasn't worked. Last Week: Drew at Chicago, 1-1

D-L-W-W-D This Week: Sunday vs. Chivas USA (8 pm, UDN)

10 Last: 8 That was actually a crucial point midweek in Kansas City, but in the context of Sporting's current nosedive, it doesn't actually look all that great. Last Week: Drew at Kansas City, 1-1

W-L-L-L-D This Week: Sunday at New England (5 pm, MLS LIVE)

11 Last: 14 This is a very different look than the 2012 Shield-winning Quakes, as exemplified by the number of goals coming from the midfield. They're finally figuring out other ways to beat you. Last Week: Won at Dallas, 2-1

D-W-L-W-W This Week: Saturday at Toronto (4 pm, MLS LIVE/TSN/RDS2)

12 Last: 11 The Power Rankings Politburo identified two weaknesses for Columbus out of the gates: no go-to goalscorer, and a lack of size to defend set pieces. Three months later, here we are. Last Week: Lost at Toronto, 3-2

13 Last: 12 Eight winless, and out of the top five in the West based on points per game. Even with all the injuries, there's enough talent here to be competitive, but they're not. Last Week: Lost to San Jose, 2-1

16 Last: 17 They've proved to be tough to beat, but just like last year can't seem to string together a few results in a row to really start climbing. Last Week: Drew vs. LA, 1-1

17 Last: 19 That was not the prettiest application of the diamond midfield, but it was effective as hell on both sides of the ball. Last Week: Won vs. New England, 2-0
