Steelers exclude RB Willie Parker from passing attack

Willie Parker...0 receptions in 2008. Steelers are last in the NFL in RB receptions with 2 total catches. The Saints lead the NFL with 35 RB receptions (Bush has 26 by himself). This stat DOES matter. Last year Parker had 23 receptions while LT had 60 catches, Frank Gore had 53, Larry Johnson had 30 catches in 8 games, Willis McGahee had 43, Earnest Graham had 49 in limited action as a starter, Brian Westbrook had 90 receptions, etc... you get the idea. Biggest Shocker?? (career average yards gained per reception) Parker---8.3 Tomlinson--7.4 Edge James--7.8 Reggie Bush--7.5 Gore--8.3 Barber--7.2 A lot more at PGH.... http://www.postgameheroes.com/?p=3636
