One of my personal favorite Steelers and without a doubt the funnest running back I have ever seen. IMO dude woulda been an HOFer if he didn't mess up his leg.
Madden 07 on GBA is the reason I’m a Steelers fan, they were the first team I ever won with. Pitch outside to Willie Parker was half my offense. Absolute legend
People don’t realize how close willie was to being an all time great. Injuries derailed his career right at his prime. Through 2005-2007, he had 1200, 1400, and 1300 yards respectively. In 2007 he broke his leg and was never the same. Its a shame but I believe willie still deserves his praise! Especially helping us win superbowl 40
Never forget one run against Cleveland on Monday night. The camera was in the defensive backfield looking at the offense and there was a tiny gap between the Offensive linemen. Like about 12". And then you see Willie lift both his feet up, squeeze and kind of turn sideways and he just squirted through. The coolest thing ever. I played it back a dozen times.
Everyone always talks about his speed...but bruh actually had vision and could break tackles also. Miss you Parker! Plus...Big Ben's improvising was incredible.
A STEELER since i was 6yrs old everything they do i feel personally involved in & I'll be waiting patiently for the barry foster highlights next, also bam morris....
Honestly he inspired me to train sprint speed. Him and herome bettis were my favorite running back combo of all time in all of nfl history ive seen alot of fast running backs but nobodies ouright speed in football pads translated so well than fast willie parker and he was the perfect partner to the bus. I wish so bad i could train with him for a couple months just to learn from him im 33 my football days are long gone but id love to learn how to train myself to be the fastest and most explosive version of myself going into my older adult years. Fastest i ever ran i was 23 or 24 and i ran a 4.5 flat forty at 6ft tall 205 pounds. Now im 33 225 a bit fat alot slower i wish i could get back in shape and do whatever training he did i can always get whatever strength back but speed like this is hard to come by. I need tips/training. I played football at 225 usually and ran a 4.7 but only time i was super fast was when i dropped down under 205
Great video. Willie P was great for the years he played. Another one of them Steeler for lifers having played only for the black and gold in his nfl career. 3:30😂
This is the best highlight channel on UA-cam you post the players people have forgot about I love it I’ve been watching videos since 2am lol it’s about 6am now
I'm starting to think JSN is a fellow member of Steeler Nation. 🤔 Also, "First", since people seem to enjoy doing that. Edit: Yeah, I don't really feel any different.
Steelers is giving Big Ben his Big Back and his Fast Back and his Big WR!! Plus a top 5 defense again!! Great TE’s!!!! Wow! McFarland reminds me of this just he’s faster and quicker!!
I seen a video the other day saying mike Tomlin is getting that feeling he had when James Harrison , troy polamalu Ryan Clark etc was on the team.. 2020 just might be the year for the steel city!
@@mideasternpapi4750 If Big Ben stays healthy, if not, Steelers have nothing behind him. Mason Rudolph needs to sit and watch for a season before being thrown into the fire again.
Steelers 7-0 in the post season with Parker starting and 0-1 without him. Not to mention 2-0 in Super Bowls and when they went back without him they lost
Reminds me of Napolean Kaufman with the quickness but i can see Willi fast quick not fast. Quick Willi Parker. Tons of the faster DBs woulda ran him down. Its rare to be a RB and have that 5th gear. CJ and Bo had it. After 40 yards Parker losses his strde and maybe training woulda changed that idk Ok now i didnt say he wasnt fast lol
He wasnt just fast he was quick he had both at such a high lvl with just enough explosive power to break tackles despite only being 212 not small by any means but definitely not big even for a running back not big at all. But best thing he had to compliment his strengths was vision he read his blocks well and hit the hole faster than anyone ive ever seen and lets be honest hes winning any footraces so defensive players either took good angles or he was gone. He wasnt the type to juke or go side to side a ton he just read the blocks well and hit with speed and power cut well too but only when needed and had power to break a tackle too came in handy to break the first early defender and get to next lvl quick at full speed where he shined. Also a good stiff arm as well dude had strong arms and the stuff arm allowed him to carry a guy for several more yards even if the tackle was made. Dude was the epitome of both speed and quickness most people dont realize the difference and that most running backs are lucky enough to be great at one let alone both but fast willie was both with fantastic vision. Him and the bus were my favorite running backs and the best combo to ever take the field as a duo he inspired me to sprint. James harrison inspired me to lift and play violent. I wasnt as talented as them but i trained to be like them when i did play or tried to i was obese as a kid and slow when i got older and found i could be fast i yearned for it. Makes me wonder what couldve been if i knew how to train like willie trained or whatever he did to become so fast
Can we Please See Bo Jackson. Football highlights. He doesn’t have enough everyone shoes the same 4 plays I know if anybody can find some good ones it’ll be you
People don't understand outrunning the defense as a RB is a lot tougher than as a receiver everybody has a 10-20 yard headstart on you. There's only a handful of backs in NFL history who could do it consistently.
Never forget that Tennessee game , his first start, couldn’t believe what I saw from this running back. Then hearing the story about how Dan Rooney used to watch him play prior to NFL , yep the Genius of Dan Rooney who also was responsible for demanding the Roethlisberger pick, Cowher had a OT in mind, Dan Rooney shut that down 😉
True Steeler fan here loved Willie Parker and the work he put in for The steel City
One of the best beside the bus bettis
One of my favorites to ever wear a Steeler uniform
Crazy he was the RB for both recent titles!?!? Wow! And he had a 146 yard game in the second run!? And a huge Td run in the first SB!?
One of my personal favorite Steelers and without a doubt the funnest running back I have ever seen. IMO dude woulda been an HOFer if he didn't mess up his leg.
It’s players like this we forget about that we’re so good!

Willie was a bad dude back in the day.
Willie Parker was a beast.

He from where I’m at so this gives me hope

The decade that Pittsburgh was amazing
We need runner like Willie
Anthony McFarland
@@treybriggs6445 The Lord has answered my prayers
Lol I’ve been wanting the same thing
@@treybriggs6445 We can only hope he's as good as Fast Willie Parker. McFarland has jets tho!
May I present to you Najee Harris
He was my favorite player as a kid

That boy could move
I feel like alot of steelers forgot about him bc he randomly left to play for Miami. you don't hear much about him anymore
I was at graduation and I saw him in irl everyone was surprise lol and this guy go fast as hell
One of the GOAT to ever play in the nfl
Here because he is my immediate first thought when I watch Devon Achane
Bullock grilled the defense and made the tackle on that long run can we get a keith bullock video just for that!!!
my fav steelers rb got almost 3 rings for us!!!
Subbing. You are the man for uploading these highlight videos for some of the lesser known players. Thank you
Great Back
Oh I wish we had that O line today
Great video. Willie P was great for the years he played. Another one of them Steeler for lifers having played only for the black and gold in his nfl career.

Great stuff Jsn!
thank ya....

'Tough' Willie Parker.
Reminded me a little of USC Reggie Bush. Had good blocking, but he took everything he was given and ran with it. Ran fast as hell with it.
Better than bush, can actually run between tackles and stay healthy
You know the highlights are old when Heath Miller is a rookie....
I'm starting to think JSN is a fellow member of Steeler Nation. 🤔
Also, "First", since people seem to enjoy doing that.
Edit: Yeah, I don't really feel any different.
lol......Never........
At 9:12 the commenter said "I'm starting to think he's one of the most underrated runners in the league" #Fact dude was cold, no 🧢
Knew him personally, great guy and very tall!
He was 5'10 nothing to write home about
I like food I guess cuz I was like 7 at the time...
@@herhzy4991 lmao na do u if hes tall as hell rock out
How tall are you?
Good ol fast willie.
Dis Brotha here was so fast, but his career was just as fast as he was, cause he came and went.
Joshua Harris Tomlin Ran him into the ground literally
@@nt6505 yeah he wasn't a every down back, he was a scat back
he literally destroyed the titans defense that game.. I think he had like 230+ yds
@@joshuaharris6934 just a nasty knee injury versus the rams. He was a great starting back
I like food Oh ok, that explains it....
Great content Jsn! Would you happen to have Randy moss’ pro bowl 1999 highlights?
I have the one in 99 but i believe you are looking for the 2000 pro bowl when he had over 200 yards......and I don't think i have that one
Steelers is giving Big Ben his Big Back and his Fast Back and his Big WR!! Plus a top 5 defense again!! Great TE’s!!!! Wow! McFarland reminds me of this just he’s faster and quicker!!

This dude had no wiggle no joke no spin no stuff arm just ran fast he was ok
We bleed black & yellow for life

I wish somebody would make a Tony Boselli and a Mark Brunell. Maybe JSN can hook it up :)
Let’s See Eddie George Too
1:49 omg 😱 💀

Looked up to THE BUS!
Steelers were 7-0 post season when Willie started and 0 -1 when he didn't (due to injury)
I forgotten has fast he had to be to earn the nickname "Fast" Willy Parker
We Need Jamaal Charles, Walter Payton, Barry Sanders, Marshall Faulk, Larry Johnson, Michael Turner, Deangelo Williams
@2:11 Hines Ward cracked somebody 🤣🤣
Im just waiting for joey porter lol
93HonestAbe Me to!
Parker looks like Madden on rookie!!!
Now Jaylen Warren .. Willie parker family .. Superbowl coming
Do Clinton protis or Willis mcgahee
Steelers best 5 RBs:
1) Bell
2) Bettis
3) Parker
4) Harris
5) Foster
Is it me or these people really weren’t trynna tackle him
Can we Please See Bo Jackson. Football highlights. He doesn’t have enough everyone shoes the same 4 plays I know if anybody can find some good ones it’ll be you
SALUTE 🫡 ..
44 secondz in
DRAFT DAMIAN HARRIS PLEASE 😂😂💯💯😎
I’d kill for an rb to take it to the house 50+ yard rn
maybe that back we took out of maryland can get that done for us
How do you say he's so fast when the defensive back from the Saints caught him so did a couple other guys when he broke free
That was his nickname........
He wasn't long distance fast but he had one of the fastest 20 yard acceleration speed I ever seen
They had the angle on him. What about the 75 yarder in the S.B. or the 80 yarder against Cleveland?
