NFL Football Season 2008- 09
Favorite Players by Team
AFC - Pittsburgh Steelers
Willie Parker
Supposedly an undersized slasher, though 658 carries over the past two seasons suggest otherwise.
Should be great in a mildly scaled-back role in 2008.
Finished the year on the sideline with a broken fibula, but before that, he was dominant, rushing for 1,316 yards.
You can tell that Parker is healthy now and he has a new partner in crime: first-round rookie Rashard Mendenhall.
Mendenhall is a versatile inside runner who is dynamic enough to go the distance.
He only had one great season at Illinois, but the Steelers love his potential. He should be a fine compliment to the 209-pound Parker.
Last time Pittsburgh had this kind of duo, they won a Super Bowl behind Parker and a guy they called The Bus.
