I have a Fever said Parker and I think its related to his Toe,Ankle,Knee,and Back if he can miss practice no one gets to see how hurt he is ..........They will probably hold him out of practice until later in the Week and at that point you only go 50% as a Team to rest up for the game so once again Parker will be of no use this game if needed..........

That's fine as long as he's ok for a playoff run I really could care less.  Mendenhall needs some touches anyways. 

I don't think that Parker will be ready and I wish the Team would look in the Stable ,because it is almost certain that we will need another RB active before the year is out,so if Parker is not ready why does the Team keep covering for him and why waste those spell Mendenhall carries on  wounded Willie we know what he can do ,why not see what Vincent or Redman have to offer and I think both are a better option than Parker if he is hurt..........

Because they've seen what Vincent and Redman can do, and unless Willie Parker has a leg amputated he is better than either one of those guys.  At this point I can admit that Parker may never be his 'old self' again, but even at 50% he is still better than either one of those guys.

I don't think so because he is affraid to cut ,affraid to plant,affraid of contact,a healthy RB would give all he has and that would be better than Parker diving to the ground or running up the back of his blockers to avoid contact IMO...........Heck you would probably be better than Parker at 50% ...

Most concerned about Kirschke.. we're already thin at the position.

Why would we sign another TE??? Johnson has impressed his rookie year..

Why not sign a DE???

I think Bright played DE in college.

LOL...dude...I hope you stretched before you reached that far...would hate to see you pull something.

 

Parker was sent to the docs....the docs said go home......You don't want the same issue the Browns had were they had 12 guys out with the flew on a Wed.

The games will increase in intensity from here on out so we'll be needing two quality backs like Parker and Mendenhall down the road.  Whatever is done in Parker's best interest and the team's best interest is okay by me.

Just listened to the press conference and when Tomlin was asked about Parker he said oh he's fine he will be o.k. he's just a little under the Weather.......I personally do not believe thats the truth ,we will see when he gets in the game and continues to stink it up, if I am wrong we will see when he comes in the game and can actually run the ball.......

True. It is flu season after all and one with special circumstances to boot.

If its the flu then fine a good smart choice, however I think the Team and Parker are blowing smoke I just found an interesting stat that all but proves Parker has been and probably still is hurt.....Aaron Rogers a QB has 188  yards on 29 attempts while Parker has 187 yards on 60 attempts if he was healthy there is no way that any QB in the NFL would have the same production with half as many attempts........Why am I the only 1 who can see this???

Because they've seen what Vincent and Redman can do




Yea, in the preseason! just like we've seen logan in the preseason but hasn't performed the same which could most likely be the same story with either of the two had they been in for some time now
