Go back to the Steelers running troubles of a season ago, and

Networks replay of last seasons Steelers loss to the Colts, Moore was a
big player that day, rushing for 57 yards and scoring twice.
He had his biggest day of the season in week 8 vs the Bengals, as
with Willie Parker hurt, Moore went off for 120 yards with two
touchdowns. He also ran for 99 yards in the 26-21 win over the Jags on
October 5th, and had 84 yards on 19 carries vs the Giants on October
26th.

rushes in the teams three playoff wins. I realize Willie Parker
deserves to be the teams feature back in 2009, but let's remember that
