Last night's loss against the Gladiators was their second close game of the season. Other than that, the Steel continue to be dominated by their opponents. There is still much time left, but they need to find a way to get back on track soon or things will get worse for them.

The Storm are the other winless team in the AFL, but they proved they can hang out with the big boys, as they took the Predators to the edge last week. On the other hand, they have yet to find a way to win a game through six games.

4. Cleveland Gladiators

The Gladiators have not played their best football thus far in 2016, as their two wins are by an average of 6.5 points per game. They have also given up big leads to the Jacksonville Sharks and the Steel.

3. Orlando Predators

Orlando may be undefeated, but they don't play like a dominant undefeated team. They have played in close games all throughout the season. 

2. Arizona Rattlers

They were dominant through their first five games of the season, which got them to 5-0, but since then, the Rattlers have lost their last two games. While they didn't put up much of a fight against the Predators two weeks ago, they did against the Soul on Saturday night. Unfortunately, it wasn't enough.

The Soul have been the most dominant team since their lone loss to the Jacksonville Sharks. They have won their last five games and have not let opponents get close to them. They have opened up big leads and never let them go and even came back from 10 down against the Storm to win by 30. They also proved their dominance by dominating the Rattlers throughout most of their meeting on Saturday.
