NOTE: As of this posting, Adrian only played the Pats once as a Viking, in 2010. He was suspended when they played again in 2014. In his lone game, he had 25 carries for 94 yards, with his longest being just 9 yards. Since none of those runs were particularly spectacular in any way, I chose the touchdown.
Best pure runner of all time. Ideal size, speed, vision, moves, power, patience, etc. Dude was a straight up monster. That being said a lot of these aren't even his best runs against these teams
guy was inhuman. probably the best all round back ever. he packed more power into his runs then guys twice his size. also amazing footwork and speed. too bad he lost a couple seasons (disciplining his kid and injuries) in his prime. without those extra numbers i think he may fade into obscurity in the future. I don't want it to happen but i'm already seeing him omitted from top running back lists.
fuck favre i swear his finale fuck you to vikings fans was leading us to the conference championship and then throwing the game (interception) at the last moment. Enemy #1 always and forever lol
Running backs like bell, johnson, gurley are the new era. Peterson was the last great back of the old era of runners. Was a pleasure to watch him and i hope he comes back to minnesota to retire
I watched it live on TV, I remember thinking AP just ruined that guy's career. I was expecting him to get cut or at least relegated to special teams duty.
The stiff arm shove was epic, but more impressive to me was the amazing acceleration. From a near stop back to top speed in just a few steps! He and Sweetness are the best I've ever seen.
Yeah AP is probably my favorite running ever, but the browns are my team. So this one was bittersweet. Now we have nick Chubb and he seems like a really special talent as well. Hopefully we’ll get to see a NFL season this year
Adrian Peterson should've won a a Superbowl. His best chance was with the Vikings when they had Favre. Peterson was killing the run game against the Saints but he kept fumbling. Ahh. Favre threw a costly interception at the end. None the less Peterson was a rare breed man. I'm talking about since like Earl Campbell era. Just my opinion. Great video
Still almost won that game despite bundling of calls late and in ot as well as bounty gate and multiple fines coming later while no penalties were called on the fined plays
Well, there have been numerous great RBs who never won the SB. Barry Sanders, Earl Campbell, Chuck Foreman, O.J., LaDanian Tomlinson, Thurman Thomas, Curtis Martin, Eric Dickerson.
It still amazes me how AP could go full speed then stop dead in his tracks and with one hand shove the defender out of the way and pick up where he left off, run again at full speed.
A truly special athlete. I was a little young and not terribly interested in football when Randy Moss was in his prime. I still remember snippets of his career with fondness, mostly the Moon over Lambeau, but I never knew him as well as I knew Adrian Peterson. I wish he could have ended his career in purple, and I wish we could have put a consistent (consistently good anyway) quarterback in front of him. Injuries took some of his prime years from him, and the years he played all the way through saw him put more mileage on his body than any reasonable human being should have to take and still be expected to have anything left. If we had put an Andrew Luck (pre injury/voodoo curse/cosmic illness/whatever he has that won't let him play), or a Ben Roethlisberger, or hell, even a Matt Stafford in front of him, I seriously think the Vikings of the 2000's are remembered in a much different light. Yeah, I know he fumbled four times in the NFC Championship Game against the Saints the one year he had a good quarterback to play with. And yeah, he hit his kid with a switch. So he left Minnesota in a bit of a controversy. So what? So all those records, all the thrills, all the head bobs that would just spell doom for the opposing defense, all the 80 yard runs that saw every defender on the opposing team touch him at least once, if not twice, and he'd still score... So those don't count for anything? Fuck that. I love Adrian Peterson, and when he goes into the HOF, I hope he wears the deepest shade of purple for his tie.
Obscure comment 11 months later but dude reading your comment i felt like we just had a convo about the best old school running back i said Frank Gore and you looked at me like i was stupid and screamed "do you watch football ADRIAN PETERSON!!!"
Adrian had the most talent ever seen as far as pure running, juking, jump cut, power etc There are clowns saying Dalvin Cook can be better lmao. He is good but not in Adrian's league.
SikeSoNice He can't hold a candle to Adrian. He is slower, smaller, already had a major injury after a few weeks. People always think the newest player is better and it just isn't true. Adrian was a generational talent
im not saying he can do what Adrian did but does anybody remember when the Chargers came to town in '07 and everybody was talking smack saying Adrian was good but was nowhere near LT's ability and all he did was set the league rushing record (296) and does anybody remember what LT finished with 31 rushing yards
I mean, maybe if AP didn't fumble what, 3, 4 times during that game? Things might have been different. People blame Favre for that throw and it definitely was a mistake, but just one of many.
The violence in his running style was always so impressive to me. It's scary even just watching him run in the open field, he looks like he's imagining a brick wall in front of him that he's got to destroy.
Such a Beast!!! I know there is haters but I could care less!! Glad we had em , wish we could of went to the bowl with him!!! Him & Barry Sanders will probably remain my two favorite for a long time to come!!! Just awesome to see him eat up every team one last time!!! Thanks!!
Even though I've heard fellow Vikings fans talk trash about AP since his departure, I still love the guy. He's a legend of this generation, and I'm stoked to have been around to watch him play for us! #Skol #APAD
He was a complete monster. Loved watching him as a Viking. He would do everything to get an extra yard which would lead to lots of fumbles but I loved him for his hard work and effort every play💯
Adrian played the Pats once as a Viking, in 2010. He was suspended when they played again in 2014. In his lone game, he had 25 carries for 94 yards, with a long of 9. Since none of those runs were particularly spectacular in any way, I chose the touchdown.
Just think what could have been if he wasn't the only weapon on the offense for such a long time. If he didn't have to go against 7-8 man fronts 70% of his runs he might have had multiple 2000 yard seasons, and possibly a lot closer to emmit and Walter in terms of yards. Not often does a RB carry his team in today's NFL especially to the playoffs.
Stacking the box *helped* AP. it meant he only had to break the wall to take it to the house. his YPC would likely have been higher if he hadn't had to face so many stacked boxes, but i feel he would have had less yards. he would get lots of 3-4s and then break off a 50 or 60 yard TD. if they hadn't stacked the box it would be more like constant 7-8 yards. VIkings would probably have won a lot more because you simply can' stop a drive giving those yards per carry up. .
pack fan for life here, AD shredded us in embarrassing ways for years. I'm glad this reel was only 1 of his soul crushing runs he did to us. just trying to prove not all GB fans are homers.. *cough*
Chadd Phillips it’s weird as a Vikings fan to see Vikings fans and packers fans fight cause individually they’re son of the nicer fanbases in the league
bruh he had hella options when it came to NFC North teams, as a Lions fan I clicked on the video going "I already know which run they picked for Lions" yet I was wrong, he could have picked the 70 yard TD vs Lions in Detroit as well!
How come we never see compilations of best DEFENSIVE efforts AGAINST players like this? You know... Fawlk running {SPLAT!} OJ to the sideli-- {SQUISH!} Payton going over-- {boinga-SMOOSH!!} Goff...hands it to Gurley {WHAM!!} I'm sure they would be WIDELY POPULAR!!! ;)
One of the worst pass blockers in the NFL, and decidedly below average for a back at catching and route running. Those things (and his propensity to go on stretches of fumbling) are what keeps him from being the undisputed goat
No Rings! Hey Adrian! YOU GOT MOSSED! Fuckin Stupid Dome Team! Outdoor Vikes won Conference Championships, Dome Bi-queens Got Shit! Even Duh bears have one Lombardi Trophy! Detriot same Zero Titles Dome Team! The Mighty Pack Runs the North! PERIOD
And then y’all don’t even show his “Best” run against Chicago... that sexy ass run he had his rookie year where he went for 200 and had like 3 jump cuts and bursted to the end zone
There's only two guys I've ever seen who could make a 5 yard run look amazing and that was Barry Sanders and Adrian Peterson. Barry was more about agility, Peterson was more about just violence and refusing to go down. He was uncanny at turning a 1 yard loss into a decent gain.
2012 Adrian Peterson is goated for RB’s. Especially when you consider he had total knee reconstruction surgery just 9 months before opening day. You also have to consider that his QB was Christian Ponder and for that year Ponder started all 16 games and had under 3k yards, 18 tds and 12 ints on 62% completion percentage. Teams were LITERALLY stacking the box with 8-9 players consistently on every down because they knew how one dimensional that team was and he STILL was only 7 yards short of breaking the all time record(which he WOULDVE gotten if Zimmer wasn’t coach). The last “non-quarterback mvp” we will probably ever have. What a special season that was, single handedly carried that team into the playoffs. Take a Bow Adrian “All Day” Peterson. Kids today don’t know how TRULY good you were. MVPeterson!
Nice Idea for a video! I remember both against the Browns and Steelers. Nice and I think Urlacher was held on the one vs the Bears but I'm a Bears fan so I may be bias lol
That run was better. I would have probably included, but my file from that game is very low quality. The one I did had a lot of significance though. The Vikes were only up by 3 and were heavy underdogs in that game. That run set up an Adrian score a few plays later that basically put the game out of reach and leading to a win against the 10-4 Eagles.
Skazellino Yup i was caught up in the webb hype i wonder if he had more passing reps and a qb guru going into 2011 -2012 season we may have won more than 3 games that season
Earl Campbell, Larry czonka, Marshawn Lynch, Erick Dickerson, Franco Harris, Jamal Lewis, etc. A lot of those backs ran with speed and power like AD. Not knocking on him because hes a great back but if you look at highlights of those mentioned you'll see how hard they ran
Man do yourself a favor and Google Barry Sanders for fucks sake. The single most dominate season EVER in college football. In his only starting season he averaged 4 Tds and over 250 yards rushing a game. We all know what he did in the NFL. The single greatest runner we will ever see, PERIOD.

It was great touchdown anyway, a hard collision goal line effort in a big game against the pats to take the lead.
Funky Buddha
Farve. Then that saints game happened
O you played for that squad
@@crookdaddyfresh8058 40 something Farve. I mean it wasn’t completely his fault. He had a young team to work with
I already knew what the Steelers run would be. RIP Willie Gay
The step on the chest was just salt in the wound.
im pretty sure thats the same guy that got lit up by Jay Cutler
Me 2. Lol
We all knew that. Lmao. Even though it wasn't a run we still all knew that. Lol.
Brad Kinder choo choo
Best pure runner of all time. Ideal size, speed, vision, moves, power, patience, etc. Dude was a straight up monster. That being said a lot of these aren't even his best runs against these teams
Yeah what was the one against the chiefs??
Big Daddy I think Bo Jackson was a better pure runner. He was bigger and faster but AP did better in his career
guy was inhuman. probably the best all round back ever. he packed more power into his runs then guys twice his size. also amazing footwork and speed. too bad he lost a couple seasons (disciplining his kid and injuries) in his prime. without those extra numbers i think he may fade into obscurity in the future. I don't want it to happen but i'm already seeing him omitted from top running back lists.
He is so freakishly strong it's unreal. If you ever shake his hand you would understand.
never had that honor but i get it. small for a power back but nothing but muscle and drive.
If only we had hade a quarterback during his prime 😭
And a coach....
Young King Brett Farve?!?
UziVert Rotmg dude are you serious ?
Young King No
fuck favre i swear his finale fuck you to vikings fans was leading us to the conference championship and then throwing the game (interception) at the last moment. Enemy #1 always and forever lol
Running backs like bell, johnson, gurley are the new era. Peterson was the last great back of the old era of runners. Was a pleasure to watch him and i hope he comes back to minnesota to retire
What's the difference between new and old?
pass catching ability and speed/acceleration over power is generally traits of new age runners
@@Thegamingcows1 I wouldn't say that, there isn't more or less of anything. It really depends on the offense.
all you say is top rbs now aren't power backs . never been that case.
He is back. With the Redskins and he ain't done yet
That run against the Browns has to be my favorite.
I was at the game and the entire crowd sat there in awe at how he threw Eric Wright into another dimension.
I watched it live on TV, I remember thinking AP just ruined that guy's career. I was expecting him to get cut or at least relegated to special teams duty.
The stiff arm shove was epic, but more impressive to me was the amazing acceleration. From a near stop back to top speed in just a few steps! He and Sweetness are the best I've ever seen.
That is the quintessential Adrian Peterson run. Showed his vision, his power, and his speed all in one.
Yeah AP is probably my favorite running ever, but the browns are my team. So this one was bittersweet. Now we have nick Chubb and he seems like a really special talent as well. Hopefully we’ll get to see a NFL season this year
Top pure running back ever.
toben42 def one the greats!!! Still could of done so much more. Accomplished a lot but not enough...wasted talent 😔
Barry Sanders easily the best of all time
dude everyone whoops their kids when they do bad stuff so cut it out
Bo Jackson
Ronald Tartaglia Yeah to bad you aren’t his kid or he’d teach you a lesson to stfu
My favorite RB. So much fun to watch in college and the NFL.
Adrian Peterson should've won a a Superbowl. His best chance was with the Vikings when they had Favre. Peterson was killing the run game against the Saints but he kept fumbling. Ahh.

@@jonsorensen94 very well said. I still remember the abnormally violent hits the saints were laying on Favre and wondering why there were no calls 😕
In all the years, that was the most painful loss I can recall.
My boy had so much heart, soul and toughness. The way he way ran the ball with authority is truly remarkable.
Punish the defense every possession. You want my quarterback to pass the ball
It still amazes me how AP could go full speed then stop dead in his tracks and with one hand shove the defender out of the way and pick up where he left off, run again at full speed.
Easily top 3 if not arguably the best running back of all time. How can you not love the way this guy runs the ball. LEGEND.
3:43 is forever legendary
How he didn’t get injured vs the colts run amazes me
Shows you how much they feared him, that was robert mathis, not a dirty player but he was definitely trying to take him out

He can be better he was good until his acl injury, and is a good rusher and pass catcher.

Dalvin doesn't have anywhere near the speed and power of Adrian so he won't be setting rushing records like Adrian did.
We will have to wait another 20 years for a back like him!❤

AD made it fun to watch the Vikings on a Sunday. It's just too bad that he had only 1 elite QB to work with. The 09 season was such a heartbreak.
vikings will always find ways to break my heart. they're going to this year as well i know it
already in process my man
I mean, maybe if AP didn't fumble what, 3, 4 times during that game? Things might have been different. People blame Favre for that throw and it definitely was a mistake, but just one of many.
From a saints fan, I’m so sorry.
Yeah, and watching Anderson miss in Atlanta was a sickening feeling that I can't describe with words.
So yes, the Steelers 'run' is a catch, but man... William Gay got REKT!
we’ll never see that kind of passion and intensity again
Adrian was a machine! Unstoppable for the Vikes! Love it! Thank you for sharing n putting this " out there"!
Thanks for sharing that. Adrian was the man. If only we had a "DON'T MISS THE DAMN F/G" kicker...2 NFC Championship games, broke my heart.
THANK YOU for this classic vid of greatness for the ages..AP ALL DAY!!!
Nobody can mess with AP's acceleration. Just rediculous how fast he gets up to top speed
Yep he’s Derrick Henry with Tyreek hill‘s acceleration
It truly was a pleasure to watch this man play ball. He had the speed, the strength, and the ball carrier vision to make things happen on any play.
Love how you actually got “every” team, including the Vikings.
I'm glad to see him in his good days
Easy to forget how fast he was. Amazing speed and power combination.
Ran a 4.3 unofficial...imagine the game speed in his prime
And hes not just 40 yard dash fast he took 2nd at the Texas state meet in the 100 fully automatic timing 10.2 I the 100
The violence in his running style was always so impressive to me. It's scary even just watching him run in the open field, he looks like he's imagining a brick wall in front of him that he's got to destroy.
AP was a beast! Was sad to see him go. No regrets. Just good football!! Still my favorite player! Still wearing my AP jerseys! What a freight train.
Such a Beast!!! I know there is haters but I could care less!! Glad we had em , wish we could of went to the bowl with him!!! Him & Barry Sanders will probably remain my two favorite for a long time to come!!! Just awesome to see him eat up every team one last time!!! Thanks!!
9:05 Gotta give it up to those Packers fans giving him props. AP was a special talent, even rival fans gave him respect.
I was at the game as a packer fan lol. Guy always destroyed our defense
Is* he still playing.
Might be the best RB highlight I’ve ever seen. And that does include that man up in Detroit
This man is still playing, and is still dominant.
Great state of Texas!!!!!
Great vid!! I forgot almost just how many games he won for us singlehandedly.

Oh thats cool. They showed his best run against the Vikings. I wouldnt have thought of that.
Talk about a highlight reel... AD simply had it all!
It’s interesting to get to hear how audio equipment has changed and gotten clearer and clearer over the yeafs
The best running back in this era
I think the only person that can compare to his size, power, and speed is probably BO!
chub-browns
was an LT fan growing up but this man carried the torch.. crazy to see he still had that speed and power after 2 knee injuries
Nice collection, thank you, and AP for many years of incredible performance.
You know you a straight G when you got highlights on every team
How is his best run against the pats a 1 yard td? I call bs on that
Because he only played NE like, twice.
SinikkaL so he never had a 2 yard run?
Adrian played the Pats once as a Viking, in 2010. He was suspended when they played again in 2014. In his lone game, he had 25 carries for 94 yards, with a long of 9. Since none of those runs were particularly spectacular in any way, I chose the touchdown.
funkydunkleman im just trolling bro good vid
Madden Moneyshot naw u weren’t trolling. L
I love how you included AP even against his beloved Vikings. It's like saying "no one is safe".
Incredible leg strength and speed with the moves. Arm shedding tackles A+ I think this is the model running back
One of the greatest ever. A man among boys.
One day, the Vikings will have a SB parade
something horrible would happen to that parade, it would be fitting...
Not with Kirk cousins
Never.
To bad the Eagles got in their way this year and destroyed them and that stiff Case Keenum in the NFC championship game.
It’s okay to dream...
This guy is the best RB I've ever personally witnessed.
Hahahaha great job with the ending clips that was lit
Great research man. Great video of the best back of the 2000-2020ish era
Just think what could have been if he wasn't the only weapon on the offense for such a long time. If he didn't have to go against 7-8 man fronts 70% of his runs he might have had multiple 2000 yard seasons, and possibly a lot closer to emmit and Walter in terms of yards.

I like that you did the NFC north last and ended with the Packers with the announcers talking shit about them

That run against the Lions was a beauty, but my personal favorite was when he juked the soul out of Kennedy en route to a touchdown.
The best ever Vikings rb. Legend never dies💪
4:57 Good Lord, that move was probably the best thing I've ever seen.
Dude is a monster just perfectly balanced in all attributes. Speed, power, agility.

Lol heartbreaking right? But bro the vid does say against Every team so yeah lol
Excellent. . just amazing🏈🏈🏈🏈
Adrian Peterson has never rushed for over 100 yards against the Carolina Panthers. Ever. #Facts #KeepPounding

Still would have lost the game. Nice try.
And your a Mets fan, so you automatically suck. lmao
mtchyb you have great faith in your team there bud lmao even the fans know they’re garbage

You also have to consider that his QB was Christian Ponder and for that year Ponder started all 16 games and had under 3k yards, 18 tds and 12 ints on 62% completion percentage. Teams were LITERALLY stacking the box with 8-9 players consistently on every down because they knew how one dimensional that team was and he STILL was only 7 yards short of breaking the all time record(which he WOULDVE gotten if Zimmer wasn’t coach). The last “non-quarterback mvp” we will probably ever have. What a special season that was, single handedly carried that team into the playoffs. Take a Bow Adrian “All Day” Peterson. Kids today don’t know how TRULY good you were. MVPeterson!
This was a great idea
Nice Idea for a video!
I remember both against the Browns and Steelers. Nice and I think Urlacher was held on the one vs the Bears but I'm a Bears fan so I may be bias lol
Please put him in the HOF already.
great video !!!! thnk you for the 10 min of happiness
Defense focused entirely on him, but he still found ways to burn them.
That run against the Packers makes me all warm and fuzzy inside....
I was like no way he burned my Broncos.... oh wait yeah he did
Dr Boom I had the opposite reaction lol. Thinking he had some beast mode run against the Patriots and all it was is a TD dive for a couple inches
as a Broncos fan as well you have to give the guy credit he was amazing
Dr Boom That was your Super Bowl year too😂
Ed Russ on a 4th down at that
Against that 15 Broncos defense 👀
7:45 Oof... that block though
Man i wished u put that run against the eagles in the 08 playoffs but this videos is great without it
That run was better. I would have probably included, but my file from that game is very low quality. The one I did had a lot of significance though. The Vikes were only up by 3 and were heavy underdogs in that game. That run set up an Adrian score a few plays later that basically put the game out of reach and leading to a win against the 10-4 Eagles.
The famous 2010 Joe Webb Tues. Night upset.
Skazellino Yup i was caught up in the webb hype i wonder if he had more passing reps and a qb guru going into 2011 -2012 season we may have won more than 3 games that season
"I wish there was a way to know you were in the good old days, before you actually left them"
Truly one of the all time greats. i always felt jim brown was this type of runner who with AD modern training advantages would be beyond description.
I remember when he was in his prime every week he scored. Felt like LT. Had them both on my fantasy team every year when I could. Beasts
I still say he's in my top ten or top five however you want to put it
All Day in his prime is my GOAT. And I have never been or will be a Vikings fan. But every time that man touched the ball, it was must see TV
Nobody in the history of the NFL ran like AP!! When he was running you better get out the way. Dominant like Reggie Bush at USC
he ran harder as the game went on. I'm glad he fixed his fumbling problem after his first couple seasons
Earl Campbell, Larry czonka, Marshawn Lynch, Erick Dickerson, Franco Harris, Jamal Lewis, etc. A lot of those backs ran with speed and power like AD. Not knocking on him because hes a great back but if you look at highlights of those mentioned you'll see how hard they ran
ATX51232 Yeah the difference is Adrian has more all time rushing yards and tds then them all
Man do yourself a favor and Google Barry Sanders for fucks sake. The single most dominate season EVER in college football. In his only starting season he averaged 4 Tds and over 250 yards rushing a game. We all know what he did in the NFL. The single greatest runner we will ever see, PERIOD.
@@ATX51232 None of those RBs could take it to the house like AD.
Mans has a speed boost like no other. Can switch gears like it’s nothing.
I love you left the packers for last and let troy bash them that was great! And I was there for that 80 yard run agaings the kittys
After Adrien Peterson caught the pass, super trucked dude and started screaming lmaooo I almost fell out 😂😂😂
