Heroes and Zeros for Week 13
Mike Harrison
After yesterday we only have 4 weeks left to celebrate our Heroes and denigrate our Zeroes, IDP fans! Heroes were in abundance this week and choices were difficult. Zeroes, as always, were all too easy to come up with. Our 10 Z-men totaled 5 tackles and 1 assist so they were even worse than usual. Possible Heroes who didn't make the cut included double digit tacklers Demeco Ryans and Josh Bullocks, multiple sackers Greg Ellis and Jared Allen, double picker Roderick Hood as well as Joey Porter and Marquand Manual who had a sack and an iinterception each. Putting points on the board were Michael Lehan with a touchdown on a fumble return, Richard Marshall, Roderick Hood and Mike McKenzie with interception returns, and Will Smith and Angelo Crowell who each put up a safety.
