Parker proving Steelers can run

Willie Parker is proving the Pittsburgh Steelers’ signature running game didn’t go away when Jerome Bettis retired. The Steelers obviously miss Bettis, as evidenced by their 3-6 record a season after they won the Super Bowl. Few NFL players are as influential and respected as Bettis was, and the Steelers haven’t replaced the leadership skills he possessed even after he quit being a 1,000-yard back.
