Adrian Peterson-rushing record
 

That is all the talk right now on local TV
Makes me want to hurl.

AP needs 208 yards to overtake Eric Dickerson.

Is it possible? Does anyone here care?
Or is it a chance to watch history.

Plus-the Vikes need to win to make the playoffs. Pack is playing for seeding.
Vikes fans jump on and off the wagon more than any fan base.

Definitely possible.

Fighting for the playoffs and if they are going to make it its going to be on the legs of Peterson.

Will he do it? Doubt it.

Have to root for AP. I think it is a great story considering how quickly he came back from that ACL injury. He injured it last December! That is really incredible. One of the best stories in the NFL this year. Hope he gets it.

After seeing what he's done this year, not even a full year removed from ACL/MCL surgery, I have a hard time doubting him.

Then again, you have to figure that GB is going to do everything in their power to stop him, even if that means giving Ponder some easy yards.

Tough call, but I'm going to say he breaks the 2K mark, but comes up short of Dickerson by about 40 yards.

Hard not to root for the guy. He seems like a genuinely good guy.

How cool would it be to see him break Dickerson's record and Megatron surpass 2k receiving yards in the same day?

These are some of the things worth watching football today.

Am i the only one who thinks our own charles would have been in this hunt with a real coordinator? Or a qb that didnt go full reerun in the face of adversity? Jamaal played poorly until the NO game and still had several games with sigle digit carries.

I hope he hits 2,000 But I don't think the record is in reach.

Yes.

Hope he gets it .. Dickerson was a asshole .....

He'll get 2k but I don't see him getting the record. He needed a better week last week. I mean, it's still very possible. One or two long runs is all that's needed but I just think they will get into a game where they need to throw more because the Packers are starting to heat up and the Vikings will need to stay with them.

E.D. was soft, he didn't punish people. He ran high and wore too many extra pads. His favorite play was the toss so he could try and outrun defenders wi thout getting hit. A.P. is a totally different beast. This guy has fight in him - he doesn't shy away from contact (racing around the end to avoid getting hit.) A lot of AP's runs are right into the heart of the defense.

I know you dont hear shit about it, but Charles' ypc record is the most impressive rushing stat. To lead the next guy, who happens to be jim Brown and then Barry who both retired in their prime by that much, without a passing game nonetheless, just blows my mind.

Be great to see if he can do it

91 in first half

now only up by 3

Just surpassed 2k. Needs about 100 more to break the record...

BOOMER....... for a guy who couldnt stay healthy in college then rebound like this off an ACL.

117 and on the bench=pack ball

he is just in better health than the rest of us

91 yards to go

That was an illusion in college. He was never actually hurt, he was just pretending so us normies wouldn't get freaked out. Since then he has stopped caring and decided to show the world he is a god.

another big run

How many to go?

64 to go

What a beast. Best RB since Barry sanders.

Nevermind, just realized this game with on where I'm at.

5:35 left in 3rd quarter...Minny up by a FG ...protecting lead.

I'm going to say it. Better than Sanders. Better than Brown.

Didn't Adrian Peterson miss a game this year too?

Edit: No.

He's going to get it.

Feed the man.. Woudnt be in the playoffs without him.

Sorry dude but Barry did it for 10 years.

If AP keeps it up though, he will be in the same conversation.

Do your thang All Day... do your thang.

Thing

EVERYTHING IS BETTAR NOW!!!!1!!1111

surprised they went to the bootleg instead of the run on the TD

Geno could make that pass.

Nice catch by Nelson, and good throw by Rodgers.

Down by contact, by 1/2 yard line.

It has nothing to do with that, except modern medicine really is better now. I love Berry Sanders. He is amazing to watch. I can't think of another RB that ever had the amount of power and speed/agility that AP does. Bo Jackson maybe?

I do agree that he needs to perform at a high level 3 or 4 more seasons though before he can truly claim the title.

LMAO @ Jordy Nelson picking up and hiding the red flag....

Smart move by Jordy Nelson there. Didn't work...but a very savvy move.

LOL at Rodgers yelling at his coach. Looks like Rodgers is in charge up there.

how many yards left?

64 still.

64 I think

Well... If you were an owner and your choice was between an elite QB or a HC, which would you choose?

I was thinking down at the two.

that GB TD will allow AP to get it.

Large dose of AP coming

61 yards

damn, he could pull this off.

Thanks

Ponder blows, Geno please don't blow like Ponder.

ignore me. I'm just sick to my stomach to see how insecure most american men have become.

staying on point -- sanders had no blocking. ever. he was a human pachinko. And Jim Brown played a game called TACKLE football during a time when running the ball was about 80% of the playbook. He was a load even for linemen a backers. AP can't carry his jock in my book.

Just feed him the ****ing ball at this point.

Jesus, Minny is imploding with unnecessary penalties...

Vikings may only get 9 more offensive snaps.

Eh, how big were defensive linemen when Jim Brown was playing? I've heard he was almost as big as many of them but don't know how true that is..

Barry was legitimately amazing.

AP does seem to be the most physically gifted RB ever though. No one has ever had size, speed, power, agility, acceleration, etc comparable to him. Every one of his physical traits are elite level.

If he didn't have a off week last week, he'd have the record already.

He also just runs ****ing HARD. I remember telling myself that there's no way he'd last more than 6 years or so in the league with the way he runs. Every damn play he gives it his all.

I'm glad I was wrong about him.

Damn I don't think hes gonna clench the record

Just takes 1 missed tackle.

come on MINN get a three and out and feed AP the ball.

8 minutes is a long time for ap. 45 yards to go

I need him to break it with a TD to win the league

FF on the last week? Not many do that.

Shit if he can clench this record, he has to clench a spot in the top 5 backs of all-time right? Or do you think he has already clenched a spot in top 5 back of all-time? His career has been pretty amazing.

Definitely top 5 in my book.

I am 15 down. JC just didn't perform today. I still have Wilson and AP going.

AP Clenches record in OT Win!

Hell of a throw by Rodgers.

Will there be an asterisk if AP gets the record in OT?

Now I am rooting for overtime

No.

Nah.

Didn't harbaugh say "what the hell" in this commercial previously?

**** yeah... Wilson rushing td. I just took the lead

Well, he can't get it now.

He's not going to get it.




GREAT season anyway.

not unless Minn blows it and it goes to OT

DO IT NOW!

Damn, someone on their way to a long rehab

How crazy would it be if he ripped off a potentially game-winning 50-yd td run and set a single season rushing record right here.
