Just the fact that you are competing against 29 different teams each week is enough to cause such variations. We all see the same thing; Get into the playoffs one week and then find yourself in 4th place the following week. That's what you get with a dynamic Promotion/Relegation system instead of a static league.
Ultimately - what it means is - you have to build the "absolute/no questions asked" best team to be consistently good.
