Mike vs. Kyle

Why would Parker accept the offer next time if he declined it in first place? More money in the offer or?

More money maybe? More playing time? When they first reached out to him I believe Torain was still the planned starter, may not be the case at this point. Fewer games to play? Or he might just change his mind and accept...if offered.

I wouldn't see the point. We could use the depth at the position, but what does Willie Parker bring that our practice squad guys do not? Go with our best and see if you can rattle off a few wins in a row, otherwise, there's no point giving carries to a five game rental.

For the record, I wouldn't do either. Just saying that they've reached out to him once this season, and I wonder if they'd do it again

Part of our problem is the line anyway, so why waste money on Willie? He isn't going to get the job done. If he did he would have been kept on the active roster. Same with Larry Johnson.
