Roster Freak Out - Week 9

Well it was a pretty solid run for the RFO, but sadly I couldn't even match Simon's sub-70 score in Week 8. Had I picked Ben Roethlisberger, I would've easily remained undefeated, but I thought Indy's secondary was supposed to be decent this year. Yahoo's color-coded defensive ratings and projected points are the most annoying developments in recent years - I was better when I did my own research instead of being lazy and relying on theirs.

This week is the Halloween edition of the Freak Out, which means I picked these players almost entirely based on whether I could create puns out of their names. Let's hope they strike fantasy ghould!!!

QB: Ryan Fitzpatrick-or-treat - Having this journeyman QB at the helm is truly terrifying.

WR: Mike "All Hallows' Eve-ans" - He's the top target of Zombie-American Mike Glennon.

RB: Peyton "The Hillis Have Eyes" - Amazing that I'm picking a guy whose career died in 2011.

TE: Slay Harbor - Selecting Jags for the RFO kills me.

W/T: Borden Wrathews - Gonna be so pissed if he lets me down again.

W/R: Dwayne Boo - Like zombie movies, every time I pick this guy it's a guaranteed disappointment.

W/R: Jarius Wight - Like the original definition of "wight," he's a warm body.

K: "Shaun of the Dead" Suisham - Steelers-Ravens games are FG bore-fests that will have you wishing you were watching this Simon Pegg classic.

DEF: Washing-tomb - As in this defense will put Week 9's RFO in its grave.
