The Facts:
Staley covets the job Jerome Bettis performed last year as the Steelers' designated touchdown runner without giving up hope that he might reclaim the starting job he once owned.That starting position now belongs to Willie Parker, who won it in training camp in August while Staley and Bettis were injured, then put it under lock and key with a solid effort throughout a championship season.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Staley promised a "friendly battle, friendly competition" between him and Parker, although those who follow the team closely believe it would take an injury to Parker for Staley to supplant him. The real competition could come between Staley, who agreed to a salary pay cut of $1 million to return this year, and Verron Haynes to fill the Bus role.
