Robert Smith blowing by defensive backs, looking like he was walking. It always looked like he was thumbing his nose at physics. Played 8 seasons and retired at the top of his game. Proud he was on "my" squad.
BVW28 3 of the best RBs of all time from a talent standpoint. Barry Sanders, Walter Payton and Adrian Peterson. And they’ve all played for an NFC North team.
@Big Reiner They had a great running game but most of those years they a bad qb that kept them from consistently winning, similar to Barry Sanders in Detroit
I miss watching Robert Smith run. He was sneaky fast. He looked like he was jogging and would just glide past people effortlessly. Wish he would have played for a few more years.
2013: Adrian Peterson touchdown 2012: Adrian Peterson touchdown 2011: Adrian Peterson touchdown 2010: Adrian Peterson touchdown 2009: Adrian Peterson touchdown 2008: Adrian Peterson touchdown Damn, why’d we have to trade after he made 1 fumble when he got back?
AP is obviously the best, but it's nice to see players like chester taylor and robert smith that are kinda forgotten. Some good players they were..... I miss those days.
Loving your work as I've said before Funky. You're the best programming available. Hey I'm possibly older than most on here but would LOVE to see highlight videos like these going back a few more years? Like back to Fran Tarkenton days? His last year was 1978 and it was huge
The 1997 run is the most emotion I've ever seen from Robert Smith after a big play ever I swear I saw him spike the ball once after a TD but can't find any video evidence to prove it.
My all time favorite Minnesota Vikings are Robert smith and Marcus Sherels because they never showboated they handed the ball to the official and walked off the field Like a professional should.
@@lorenheaton7524 My favorite kind of celebration. I read Robert Smith's book and he didn't like showboating. He preferred to high five his teammates because they're the ones that got you there. Class act!
3:37 I was at that game in SF. AP was banged up and left the game early on so Chester got the work. I was actually a few rows up from where he celebrated.
I was there too, I got tossed out of the stadium because my nephews brought some alcohol in a water bottle, but I did see Taylor's run and before we got to our seats Williams had already scored
@@Skazellino did that happen at that game or the game against the Buccaneers? I went to three games that year. My older brother is a season ticket holder for the niners.

Jay Nicks very true
Big Reiner it was more like an average of 8 wins a season. Yes, I did the math. Not great but DOUBLE what you said.
@Big Reiner Adrian would be the reason we would actually win games

Can you believe there was, at one point, an offense with Adrian Peterson, Brett Favre, and Randy Moss?
Randy moss was fired
@@austinc.1495 Um yeah I know. But... Can you believe there was, at one point, an offense with Adrian Peterson, Brett Favre, and Randy Moss?
@@justvincenturb lmao yea it's crazy, too bad the Vikings couldn't capitalize.
Not all primes tho
@@djzndjdjd5991 If they were all in their primes while together they'd be another version of the Triplets
7:08 that move Robert Smith put on John Lynch was too nasty
Chester Taylor has always been one of my favorite RBs ever
I can watch AP all day
Watching this, all I can hear is PA:
AND HE'S LOOOOSE!!!!

Damn, why’d we have to trade after he made 1 fumble when he got back?
he wanted too much money
He was aging, but at least y'all got a great replacement in Dalvin Cook
@@ak_sk8r_175 It was time to move on from him
He beat his kid.

Ppl forget how good Robert Smith was.
Glad Terry Allen qualified, he was a very good RB with the stats to prove it.

Patterson was a wr in a rb body. He had great vision and an awesome ability to cut and accelerate
Michael Bennett was fast AF during those culpepper-moss days

Amp Lee does it amply.
Me and my brother went down to the front row in 2005 with a few minutes left on the last game vs the bears. Won’t forget that Bennett run.
I always liked Patterson, not a great receiver but explosive speed and good moves.
Robert Smith is part of the vikes coaching staff
Hard to believe Leroy Hoard ever ran that far.
Halloween Sunday Denver, Colorado. I was 14 rows away from the a tion in the old mile high stadium
nice upload
2:30 the effort from #26 and #23 cannot be ignored
Legend says the shoe was never put back on.
Adrian Peterson highlights
Walker be losing his shoe on his first run with us. That’s just gorgeous
Large price to pay to get him but that's old news now
Use me as a “break ankle” button!
7:14
Give Robert Smith a crease and put 6 on the board 🏃🏃
Can u do best play by a Vikings tight end from each year pls. Btw love the vid
4:54 Moe Better Running. Mo Definitely!
Vikes should have kept their 1996 to 2005 unis
PLEASE MAKE A ROBERT SMITH HIGHLIGHT!!!! He still holds the record for most yds per TD
Robert smith was good but he also had Moss, Carter and Reed on the outside!! Damn still can’t believe we lost to Atlanta in 98!! 😢

RS was definitely the second best RB in vikings history. He left the game with a lot of yards left on the field. #lefttoosoon
Ah yes, the whizzinator, how could I forget
Anyone see kirks stats at 1:14? Dude was slinging it
Do best play of every starter on the vikings currently.
Why isn't Paul Allen in any of these. Would have made this video better.
SKOL
1998...maybe the fastest 74 yards I've ever seen.
early for once, wow
Have the Vikings Ever had a bad RB
Toby Gerhart was not the best
