The Steeler Fury Player of the Week for Week # 14 is Willie Parker 

Willie Parker the SteelerFury Player of the Week for Week 14 against the New England Patriots.  It can be difficult to pick a Player of the Week after suffering a 34-13 loss. But against the undefeated media darlings, Fast Willie Parker distinguished himself in Foxboro.    

Parker went over the century mark for the seventh time this season gaining 124 yards on 21 carries (also a testament to the Offensive Line play).  That is an average of 5.9 yards per carry; Willie’s best average in a single game this season.  Fast Willie’s 124 yards put him at 1,217 yards rushing this season and hoisted him above the Viking’s Adrian Peterson as the NFL’s leading rusher.  

Stats for Willie Parker were:      

  • 21 rushes for 124 yards.
  • 5.9 yards per carry average.
  • Longest Run:  30 yards.
  • Four receptions for 23 yards.
  • 5.8 yards per catch average.
  • NFL’s Leading Rusher going into Week 15.

Willie did his part in the Steelers’ quest to upset the undefeated Patriots.  The quest feel short but Willie led the way on the ground. 

 

 

Congrats to Willie Parker, SteelerFury Player of the Week (Week #14).
