Spotlight shines on unsung Parker


, who has been clocked at 4.28 seconds in the 40-yard dash, struck again Sunday at Ford Field. He had suffered through a dreadful first half, like the entire Pittsburgh offense. But on the second play of the third quarter, with the Steelers nursing a 7-3 lead, Parker broke a counter play for a 75-yard touchdown - the longest run in Super Bowl history - giving the Steelers the cushion they needed in a 21-10 triumph.
