    AP was a rare combination of size speed power and complete ferocity. He ran to hurt people and he could outrun almost anybody. He set the record for most rushing yards in a game with 296, as a ROOKIE. That record still stands to this day. Absolute monster.

  • @cteal2018
    @cteal2018 ปีที่แล้ว +28

    Adrian Peterson aka AD (as in ALL- DAY) was a fairly quiet guy, he let his playing do all the talking. He had the career in football that Bo would have had if he had recovered and focused on football full time. Speed, power, Agility, and sheer WILL. One of the few RBs that could run through you or around you.
    A bit of trivia, he was on the Oklahoma team that lost to Boise State in the Fiesta Bowl.

    Growing up a Bears fan I feel privileged to have seen so much of Walter Payton, Barry Sanders, and Adrian Peterson. Three of the greatest RBs of all time playing for different teams in the NFC North (or the NFC Central when I was growing up).
    Three players who were different but who could do it all.
    I don't think anyone ever combined power and speed the way AP did, and his work ethic and resilience is legendary.
    Pretty much everyone in the NFL endures pain and physical hardship to stick around, but the only RB even in the same conversation for mental toughness, IMO was Frank Gore.

    Great reaction to AD's come back season! However, whenever you watch a Joe Vincent "Bored Filmgrads" production there will be an introductory prologue before his title card and a closing epilogue after his "Bored Filmgrads" card. In this one it shows Adrian Peterson being named the league's "Most Valuable Player". It is the most prestigious regular season award for any player. AD is the only non-quarterback to win the award in sixteen years! That just goes to show how truly respected and revered he was for what he accomplished that year. Also, he is a proud supporter of his alma mater the University of Oklahoma Sooners at which he had a great career. Boomer Sooner!

The freak out came when the friend that was driving, they did a brake check in the parking lot, right infront of the crosswalk AP was on.

    The thing about some of the greatest running back like AP is that he played on a bad Vikings team where other teams whole game plan is to "stop the run" against them because they can't pass good and he still goes out there and dominates.

    Adrian was creating a Hall of Fame career prior to this injury. This injury happened in the middle of his prime. He was not necessarily a showman type of player. Never bragged and always stay humbled. A lot of his highlights were against historic defenses as well. He's the best pure running back to ever grace the field. 6'1 217lbs that could run completely through multiple players and cut on a literal dime and get back to full stride with in two steps.

    He was in the Boise St Oklahoma game. I could be mistaken, but I wanna say he broke his collar bone in like the first few games that season and healed and came back for that game. He was showboating or something and rolled into the end zone and broke it and missed all of the season until then.

    He was a rare breed of running back. Tall, heavy, strong, and fast.

    adrian peterson was one of a few elite running backs during his age. the way of the pass had begun with brady manning and favre dominating the league but there were outliers and peterson after his first season cemented himself as the best, he was in his 4th or 5th year when he got injured, and he came back and immediately was the best again.

    One Halloween night my mom and dad took my older brother trick or treating in Athens Tx and noticed no one was handing out candy which was unlike the norm, they learned the next day that Adrian Peterson from Palestine Tx played against Athens at home that night, and the whole city was at the game!! They said AD
    (All Day) didn’t even come out the locker room after halftime! Game was already over😂😂😂legendary stuff

    Adrian Peterson holds the record for the oldest player to break 20mph and longest rush for a RB over 30, in the NFL a 30 year old RB might as well be a 90 year old most Rbs have almost no cartilage left in their knees after their playing careers

    Watched him play his entire college career. He was special. You knew it immediately.

    Eric Dickerson has the single season rushing record. He ran for 2,105 yards ion 1984. Football was a much different sport then, and people ran the ball a lot more. Because of that, his record is seen as impossible to beat in today's pass heavy offense. Just 8 months after completely destroying his knee, Adrian Peterson (AP, AD are his nicknames, AD stands for "all day") got 2,097 yards. Just 8 yards short. He carried the vikings to the playoffs, and won MVP, which is considered a QB award these days. The off-season was about whether AD would play again, or even be close to who he was. Instead he had one of the greatest seasons a RB has ever had. Check out his full career highlights. This is just 1 year of his 15 year career.

    Showboating is just fine in my book if you can back it up with your game. AP was an absolute BEAST.

  • @rababry0810
    @rababry0810 ปีที่แล้ว

    Most impressive thing is he did it with Christian Ponder at qb so the D knew he was gonna get the ball
    I don't have a ton of historical knowledge in the NFL but I can't really think of a player the same caliber as Peterson. He fully believed he was gonna break a big run every time he touched the ball, and so did I!

    When you come back from an injury like that you know the other team is going to hit you there. You just have to be ready. To some extnet you can't control what happens, you jsut rehab and hope it works out.

    The top 4 NFL running backs are (in no particular order): Jim Brown, Walter Payton, Barry Sanders and Emmitt Smith. If I had to add a 5th to the top tier it would be Adrian Peterson.

  • @JB-gw8ee

    Peterson had a long career. RB is a tough position to even last a season or two. But Adrian went for like 15 years, which is unheard of. I wouldn't call him a showman, more of a workman. He had everything - speed, agility, power, aggression. The only thing is he didn't catch a lot of passes. But he put up huge numbers just running the ball.
