description

Steelers running back Willie Parker had already put one 70+-yard run into the box score in this matchup when he took this fourth-quarter handoff and cut to the right side, and he was about to do it again. Accelerating down the sideline, Parker nearly took this one to the house, but was finally tripped up inside the five-yard line and was brought down after a 76-yard gain, his longest run of the season. He'd finish off the drive with a score on the following play. Parker finished this one with 213 rushing yards and two scores, helping the Steelers to a 38-31 win over the Saints on Nov. 12, 2006.
