Roscoe Parrish has heard this one before.
Whether it was Mike Mularkey in 2005, Dick Jauron the previous four years, or now Chan Gailey this season, Parrish has been paid more lip service than the Kiss Cam regarding the potential role he could play in Buffalo's offense.

Yet year after year, Parrish was basically a non-entity when the Bills had the ball, and his only contributions came on special teams as one of the NFL's best punt returners.
So why is the diminutive wide receiver convinced that 2010 is going to be different?
Nothing new in the article, just says that Parrish is excited about his potential new role in the offense. He's glad to have a coach who gets the ball in the hands of his playmakers.
I've maintained that Parrish is only a playmaker with 10 men blocking in front of him, and I have very little faith in him as a wide receiver. That being said, I'd love to see him prove me wrong.
If he does end up having a relatively important role in this offense, I could actually see him filling in for Josh Reed. Not in terms of the blocking, but as being an underneath receiver who can (hopefully) know enough to get first downs when it's 3rd and 5 or something like that.
