| Joshua Mayers' MLS power rankings | ||
| Rankings run Wednesdays during the regular season | ||
| Team (prev. rank) | Comment | |
| 1 | Real Salt Lake (2) | Defending champs are on a 10-1-6 run against league opponents and take over the top spot |
| 2 | L.A. Galaxy (1) | A small cushion in the standings means little to a team slumping mightily down the stretch |
| 3 | FC Dallas (4) | They're going streaking. Haven't lost on the road in 10 league games and overall in 12 |
| 4 | Columbus Crew (3) | Only team besides Seattle still kicking in 3 competitions: MLS, CCL, U.S. Open Cup |
| 5 | N.Y. Red Bulls (5) | Starting to catch fire as new guys come together; much-maligned Dane Richards is starring |
| 6 | Sounders FC (7) | Don't look now, but Fredy Montero (10 G, 9 A) is emerging as leader in MVP race |
| 7 | Colorado Rapids (8) | In a big 3-0 win against Houston, Colorado scored 2-plus goals for first time in two months |
| 8 | San Jose 'Quakes (6) | Will need DP Geovanni to produce now that playmaker Bobby Convey has cooled a bit |
| 9 | Chicago Fire (9) | As Freddie Ljungberg goes, so goes his team. Will he be able to carry them to the playoffs? |
| 10 | Toronto FC (10) | Will certainly miss 3 stalwarts (De Rosario, de Guzman, Attakora) on national-team duty |
| 11 | K.C. Wizards (11) | On a winning streak for only second time this year; who knew it'd come via road win in L.A.? |
| 12 | Chivas USA (14) | With postseason prospects over, expect them to put everything into USOC semi vs. Seattle |
| 13 | Houston Dynamo (12) | Suffered a fifth shutout in seven MLS games and haven't won consecutively in 42 matches |
| 14 | N.E. Revolution (13) | Losers of three in a row face red-hot Sounders FC, then go on the road for three straight |
| 15 | Phila. Union (15) | Snapped a six-game winless streak with a rare road win at N.E., but it's all about pride now |
| 16 | D.C. United (16) | Host Columbus twice this week: a big USOC semifinal Wednesday, league match Saturday |
