    Let's look at what Parker did to help the Steelers get to that Super Bowl.

    Wild Card game vs. the Bengals: 16 carries for 38 yards (2.7 per rush)
    Divisional Round vs. Colts: 17 carries for 59 yards (3.5 per rush)
    AFC Championship vs. Broncos: 14 carries for 35 yards (2.5 per rush)

    Yeah, he was just carrying them. :rolleyes:

    Playoff performance is a factor, but far from the only factor. Aside from one beautifully blocked run, Parker wasn't particularly good in the playoffs. Bell turned in two of the best playoff performances in team history, so this idea that Parker was dramatically better in the playoffs is pure fiction.

    Their rushing statistics aren't far off, though Bell's are skewed by his skills falling off a cliff after taking a year away from the game. As a receiver, Parker caught 84 passes in his entire career. Bell caught 83 in 2014 alone.

    I don't think so. I'm having a mental block with his name.

    Lakelander used that phrase all the time at various sites including SA.

    He’s a good dude but had a big time man crush on Redman.

    I do believe Parker has more playoffs tds than Bell, and definitely more SB tds also, and I'm not saying you ,but I've seen apparently some think yards are more important than points.

    Look at the 3:50 of this video,the TD of Parker vs Bengals....You would score this TD too,so much that the play call by Whiz or the awful bengals defense were on this play!

    I don't need to look, I was actually watching the game.
    Again you must move the post around to help you.
    Parker had more tds in the playoffs than L. Bell, and He had definitely more tds in the SB than Bell. Now I'm sure you can move around the goal post some more

    Individual TD has so many variables.Parker was not a top 5 players on offense in the 2005 playoffs(regular season,yes but not the playoffs).Bell was a top 2 players of this team in the 2016 playoffs with Shazier.And yes I watch this game,if you think I did not watch football when I was 16 years old,you are crazy
