Adrian Peterson is a Freak

[OU-HSV]

AD just broke a 67 Yd td run!

[BillyBall]

He has 105 yards rushing and a TD in the first half against the Bears at Soldier Field....

[SoonerEmpire]

Is it on tv?

[SoonerEmpire]

tv?

[OU-HSV]

Is it on tv?
Not here in Broken Arrow, but I'm keeping up with the games on my Yahoo fantasy football stat tracker.
He has 8 carries for 105 Yds and a td already

[BillyBall]

I live in Chicago so.... But its on Fox if its televised in OKC.

[SoonerEmpire]

Okay, thanks!

[SoonerStormchaser]

Billy...where ya been?

And the game's not on here...just Favre vs. Skins and Bungles vs. whoever they lose to

[StormySooner-IN]

It's on here in Indy! Bears Network area.

I saw it, it was mostly him. He broke 3 or 4 tackles, too.

[BillyBall]

The 67 yard run was beautiful, he has a great cut back and then hit that "extra gear" that he has.

[SoonerEmpire]

Darn it! We've got Green Bay v Washington in OKC...

[OU-HSV]

The 67 yard run was beautiful, he has a great cut back and then hit that "extra gear" that he has.
I'm sure I'll see it on the halftime shows hopefully. Oops looks like me and your threads got posted at exact same time, maybe we need a merge or something

[HappyClappyMackBrown]

thank god for NFL sunday ticket :pop: Peterson has looked pretty good today as he has all season, that 68 yard TD run brought back memories of his Sooner's days. He also had a 27 yard run earlier. They have only thrown to him once so far, which is frustrating, but it has come to be expected from Childress who is a rather crappy coach. Now only if my Vikings could get a couple of NFL quality WR's we'd be set :D

tHEY ALREADY CONCEDED THE Rookie of the Year award.

[SoonerBOI]

That was an insane TD run by AD. OMG!

[OU-HSV]

Wow, just saw it...amazing run by AD

[SoonerBOI]

Bush did not score his first TD till the 6th game of last season. HAHAHAHAHAHA. Return your trophy dude.:D

[BillyBall]

Bush did not score his first TD till the 6th game of last season. HAHAHAHAHAHA. Return your trophy dude.:D

Based on what I have read, I believe his professional career began 3 seasons ago. Maybe he can exchange his Heisman for a ROY trophy?

[BillyBall]

Bears D gives up an average of 98.8 yards a game on the ground, AD has 105 at the half...

[BillyBall]

So yeah, he just busted a 73 yard run for a TD....

[tommieharris91]

When did he get moves?

AD: 11car 176yds 2TD

2:31 left in the 3rd.

[OU-HSV]

So yeah, he just busted a 73 yard run for a TD....
Just saw that highlight...holy crap, what a stud!

[SoonerBOI]

So yeah, he just busted a 73 yard run for a TD....

That was an awesome run. Go AD!

[Fiatil]

Wow, this is pretty amazing. So ****ed the game isn't on TV here. At least we get the beautiful AD highlights.

[Whet]

(On edit) Sorry for the repeat topic - but, if anyone deserves multiple posts, it would be Adrian.

So far, Adrian has scored on a 67 yard run in the first half and a 73 yard run in the third quarter. He is also returning ko....

He has been out running all of the Bears secondary.

Adrian is No. 28 and a man! Also, wears a new pair of shoes for each game.

[tommieharris91]

It might be time to start asking the local stations for Viqueens games.

It's pretty sad that a bears fan is saying this.

i dunno, watching the vikings is a rather painful expirence. The playmaking D and AD are the only thing that makes them watchable. The crappy WR and QB play will drive you nuts.

[LittleWingSooner]

I think we figured out that he was a freak 3 years ago. How did he average only 5 yards a carry at OU?

[Half a Hundred]

Starts with a C, ends with a G, and in the middle is "hucklon"

[85sooners]

:O

[LittleWingSooner]

AD's YPC average

2004 5.7(Chuck Long OC)
2005 5.0(Chuck Long OC but he was hurt most of the year even when he was playing, and we had new QB new WRs, probably the wrong QB playing for most of the year and he didn't play for about 5 games, also had a very poorly coached offensive line)
2006 5.4(Kevin Wilson OC)

[Texas Golfer]

Darn it! We've got Green Bay v Washington in OKC...

Same here in Central Texas.

[StormySooner-IN]

He just broke for another 35 yarder, TD!!

[UTsucks]

He scored AGAIN!

[boomersooner82]

Amazing!!!

[jdsooner]

Regrettably, I did not think about him coming off the bye week and I did not start him in my fantasy league. Doh!

[txsooner14]

he must be 40

[SoonerBOI]

Another 35 yd TD run! OMG! Just stay healthy, AD

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Tommie Harris is $***ing himself!

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

i know it's early, but by chance does anyone have a video clip of AD today?

[tommieharris91]

Regrettably, I did not think about him coming off the bye week and I did not start him in my fantasy league. Doh!

I bet you'd love that 17 for 233 and 3 TDs then. Ohh and the Bears just scored, so he has a chance to get more.

[tommieharris91]

Tommie Harris is $***ing himself!

It seems like he's being called offsides every play.

[LiL10(s)ArEaJoKe]

LOL I drafted him with my 2nd pick, in FF.

Guess this should solidify his place in Minn Off as the #1 RB, Chester never had a chance!!!!!!


undefeated so far and after today no doubt that i will remain that way TY AD!!!!!

[Rocker]

How smart were those teams that passed on him!

Oakland, Detroit, Cleveland TB, Arizona, Wash.

[bringit]

How is the overhyped bonghorn doing for da bears?

[tommieharris91]

18car 67yds

He runs like he's in concrete shoes.

[85sooners]

[StormySooner-IN]

The Defense just disapperad.


>2:00 to go, it's 31-17.


1:38, it's 31-31...

:(

[bringit]

pretty accurate description :D

[tommieharris91]

HAHAH, pass to Devin Hester to tie the game. He's the Bears best playmaker.

[StormySooner-IN]

AD runs kickoff back to the Bear 38

[tommieharris91]

AD just returned a kickoff 53 yards.

[OUWxGuesser]

Cmon Bears... get the win and Peterson still has a good game.... best of both worlds

[stoops the eternal pimp]

LOL I drafted him with my 2nd pick, in FF.

undefeated so far and after today no doubt that i will remain that way TY AD!!!!!

I ve drafted both AD and Ronnie Brown...pimpin aint easy

[StormySooner-IN]

34-31 Vikes!!

Carrer Long, 55-yarder for Ryan Longwell.

[tommieharris91]

Viqueens win 34-31 :(

[bringit]

[sooner2b09]

Beautiful

[Leroy Lizard]

Some Bear fans not too happy with Benson, especially after seeing AD run today.

[tulsaoilerfan]

18car 67yds

He runs like he's in concrete shoes.
He runs like he's carrying a plasma wearing concrete shoes. :D

[tulsaoilerfan]

Why on Earth did we have to suffer through Green Bay-Washington instead of this game?

[stoops the eternal pimp]

http://www.nfl.com/gamecenter?season=2007&week=REG6&game_id=29272

AD runs start at about 2 min.. "And he gallops into Viking immortality!"..love that call

[toneful]

Makes me wish he had been drafted for a team with a grass field. I hate seeing my favorite NFL player playing most of his games on that crappy turf. Looks so much more "pure" when he's doing his thing on the natural stuff.

[stoops the eternal pimp]

He is the only guy I have seen that his high school, college, and pro highlights all look the same..The fastest guy on the field doing what he pretty much wants too

[Widescreen]

His 361 all-purpose yards are the third-highest total in NFL history.

:eek:

[stoopified]

Just to be accurate AD is not a FREAK,he is a SUPERFREAK.

[tulsaoilerfan]

Is it just me or does he look even faster than he did in college?

[JLB]

Could you imagine what this years OU team would be like if that MAN would have stayed for his senior year.
I miss AD so much.He was so fun to watch.I hope he becomes the greatest runnung back in NFL history.

[bluedogok]

thank god for NFL sunday ticket :pop:
Yep, I rather like it. I was changing the brakes out on my pickup, so my wife kept giving me updates. I finished right before the final two Bears TD's and watched the rest of it.

[Tailgate]

He is a bonified bad ***.

[DrZaius]

Hey that AD guy is pretty good. ;)

[brown town sooner]

Not only is he faster....he's bigger and stronger. Anybody still have questions about his durability? What broken collarbone? What an animal. If he could get a little more help up front on the offensive line there's not telling how good he can be. What a display against a Chicago Bear team that is supposed to be bada$$ against the run.

[kbsooner]

Wow. He was just toying with guys out there, could you imagine if the Vikes had a serviceable QB?

[StoopTroup]

He looked like he was going to go supersonic.

[bluedogok]

I was looking at some pro forums and ran across this jewel about drafting Peterson started on January 6. It is kind of funny to look at these posts bashing AD and how the Vikings shouldn't take him. Just look at some of their posts and look at their sigs, my how opinions have changed.

Just goes to show that the average pro-football fan has about as much savvy at gauging real talent as Mike Vick does at choosing homies and hobbies.

thanks Golfer.

All Day.

[rubyspirit]

224 yds for the night .... He is carrying Minn.

[RUSH LIMBAUGH is my clone!]

I just watched the ESPN, Chris Berman coverage of AD's exploits in the game today. They gave him the proper adoration he deserved.

[tommieharris91]

He runs like he's carrying a plasma wearing concrete shoes. :D

No. He doesn't fumble the plasma.

[Sooner Eclipse]

224 yds for the night .... He is carrying Minn.

Carrying, hell.....

He is that team. He's the only reason they aren't getting blown out of every game they've played.

Chicago should have put Devon Hester in the defensive backfield. He's the only one on that team that stands a chance of catching AD.

[King Crimson]

Cedric Benson sucks. and he always has. he's one of the most overrated players in my memory. a buck-fifty on 32 carries against Rice or Baylor, hoo-ha.

[Leroy Lizard]

http://www.suntimes.com/sports/mariotti/603229,mariotti101407a.article


We've seen magnificent running backs in this town, the best to play the game. Cedric Benson certifiably is not worthy of the tradition, which makes life difficult when you've wasted a high draft pick and about $20 million on a bust while the Minnesota Vikings are showcasing the next power-and-speed, bash-and-dash, Nintendo-game force
.
.
.

I have seen hope. His name is Adrian Peterson. And for the next decade or so, he'll be playing for a division rival while the Bears try to find someone who plays like him, not someone with merely the same name.

Pretty rough on Benson, not so rough on AD. :D

[OULenexaman]

Good thing AD was wearing his under armor shorts....on that kick-off return Daneil Manning almost took his pants off saving a TD return...AD would have mooned the nation...

[Animal Mother]

Didn't A.D. have more yards against Texas in his freshman year then Benson had against OU in three years? I know Benson didn't play his freshman year, but it wouldn't surprise me if A.D. had more that 1st game than Benson did in three. Benson and Chrissy Simms. Do they get any more over rated than those two wieners? At least Chrissy can blame the actual loss of body parts for the end of his career.

[StoopTroup]

This morning ESPN is still under AD's thumb....

I believe they are almost to "Mancrush" stage.

:D

Benson did play a series or 2 his freshman year. He didn't reach 100 yards in 4 years against OU, i believe.

Edit - nevermind, I guess it was up to his senior year I was thinking about. I did think he got in for 1 play in 01, but oh well.

My lack of accurate memory in old age is driving me crazy. ;)

[LittleWingSooner]

As a senior Benson had just about 100 yards. I think he may went over it a little bit. I'll look the exact numbers.

[LittleWingSooner]

Benson's career numbers against OU
2004 23 carries 92 yards
2003 12 carries 21 yards
2002 22 carries 55 yards
2001 DNP

57 carries 168 yards 2.95 ypc

[rubyspirit]

I saw the highlights. AD is the ONLY reason Minn won that game. Fun to watch ...

[jps]

Adrian is now also leading the NFL in rushing yards just ahead of LT.

[Widescreen]

How many carries does each have?

[OU-HSV]

I've now seen all of AD's long runs on the highlights from yesterday. He is just so freakin good. I wonder how the teams that passed him up feel now. Or do you all think they're all still happy w/their picks?

[tommieharris91]

AD: 96car. 607yds. 6.3ypc :eek: 4TD

LDT: 122 car 527yds 4.3ypc 6TD

Benson: 119car 370yds 3.1ypc 2TD

On top of all that, AD's already had his bye, whereas LT hasn't.
