100x this. Kid had such a fluid running style. If he was in a big market in his prime he would be talked about a lot more. Alas Houston.Arian Foster was so much greater than he will ever be given credit for.

Gore is a lot more flexible than Peterson, plus he can catch. AP can only function in certain formations and his pass pro is not great.Frank Gore at age 33 put up 1300 combined at 3.9 ypc and 8 TDs. That kind of season is entirely feasible for Peterson. It's probably close to the ceiling, though.
I'm sure nobody will see that comingI'm hoping he puts up some solid numbers to start the season and trade him while his stock is high.
This is like the 'trade fur Ingram/Edelman week three when his owner is getting desperate' advice.I'm sure nobody will see that coming
Gore can also block.Gore is a lot more flexible than Peterson, plus he can catch. AP can only function in certain formations and his pass pro is not great.
Sort of seemingly worked that way.Why are we all presuming that he starts? I'm not saying the presumption is wrong, but there is an incumbent (Kelley) with starting experience. AP strolls in off the street and that's that, he's anointed #1?
Exactly, the idea that he is now the starter has come from commentators speculating, nothing concrete - unless I have missed something?Sort of seemingly worked that way.
Nope, you missed nothing concrete but you arguably missed the tea leaves.Exactly, the idea that he is now the starter has come from commentators speculating, nothing concrete - unless I have missed something?
Gruden jokingly said in a press conference today that he wants to give AP 40 carries week 1. Meanwhile, Kelley played a large number of snaps in preseason week 4. Seems pretty clear what's going on here.Exactly, the idea that he is now the starter has come from commentators speculating, nothing concrete - unless I have missed something?
AP confirmed stater just now.Why are we all presuming that he starts? I'm not saying the presumption is wrong, but there is an incumbent (Kelley) with starting experience. AP strolls in off the street and that's that, he's anointed #1?
40 carries, 73 yards, 2 touchdowns, 1 dropped pass, and one missed block that causes Smith to get laid out.All aboard the ADP train!
What kind of stats do you think he puts up this week?
Don't forget the obligatory fumble at a critical moment.40 carries, 73 yards, 2 touchdowns, 1 dropped pass, and one missed block that causes Smith to get laid out.
25 for 95, 1 for 8 and 1 TD.All aboard the ADP train!
What kind of stats do you think he puts up this week?
Can't imagine it - they gave him a chance after NO bailed on him. They just didn't re-sign him after the season, but since they would get Johnson back why would they?Never really followed him in Arizona, but did he leave with any animosity towards the team? Is this any sort of revenge game in his mind?
7 carries, 5 yards. 1 fumble. Knee injury, out for season.All aboard the ADP train!

I was right there with ya buddy.Hope some of you doubters listened to me.
it just feels like the wheels ARE going to come off... he's 33. whats the chances he's heathy and playing weeks 14-16? seems very low even for a freak of nature like API suspect his value will increase after this week. Tho im leaning towards keeping him and riding the bus till the wheels come off.
What are the signs of this? I'm not seeing any.it just feels like the wheels ARE going to come off... whats the chances he's heathy and playing weeks 14-16? seems very low even for a freak of nature like AP
It was week one. I'm pretty sure everyone expected this. I'll eat crow if I have to, but let's see where he is week 10 or so. His price was too high for my liking.Hope some of you doubters listened to me.
I remember his first week with Zona last year. I remember what followed as well.People are Salty over missing out on the Ageless Wonder ... He's looking NICEEEEE
The starting QB getting hurt? And to your other comment, how is a 10th round pick to high of a price for a RB who's going to get 20+ touches a week. What other back could you get in the 10th with that type of work load?I remember his first week with Zona last year. I remember what followed as well.
signs of him being injured? Common sense would indicate a 33 year old RB is not going to be able to stay healthy until weeks 14-16 if he is taking 15-20 carries a game. if you want actual proof i would cite his 2017 seasonWhat are the signs of this? I'm not seeing any.
How about a 33 yr old, highly prideful, feeling insulted, physical freak of nature RB on a balanced offense with a friendly schedule?signs of him being injured? Common sense would indicate a 33 year old RB is not going to be able to stay healthy until weeks 14-16 if he is taking 15-20 carries a game. if you want actual proof i would cite his 2017 season
