Adrian Peterson tears ACL, needs reconstructive surgery

[lilbeastnani]

Nobody and I mean nobody should act like they expected him to be back for the beginning of the 2012-13 season. Let alone to be putting up the numbers he's putting and winning games. He is a medical marvel, a freak of nature to have come back in the position he plays, in the sport he plays in and be just as strong and good as he was before.

They don't make 'em like this guy anymore. Truly one of a kind.

Nope.

Don't compare D-Rose to the best running back in NFL history. Just stop. Right now.

Props has to go to PT for his blind faith or knowledge in AD's unworldly healing abilities. I'm a Sooner homer and big AD fan and I thought for sure he wouldn't be this good again until at least the midway point. He is just a true freak of nature. Hasn't even changed his running style.

thank you sir...

it wasn't hard to predict though, the guy has come back from several serious injuries dating back to OU...granted this was probably the worst

couple that with the fact that ACL/MCL surgery is 100x better than it was just 10 years ago and you have an elite RB back in full form...



I surprised so many people were quick to write him off as DONE

Idk about the best RB of all time. Top 10 for sure though.

He's better than Payton, Sanders, you name it.

Best running back in NFL history.

I think AD has a legit shot at retiring and being the consensus #1 RB All Time

the Barry Sanders crowd is tough to win over though, despite all his massive flaws as a RB

but they don't count anyway...he really just has to beat out Jim Brown

He needs to average 139 ypg over the next 4 games to hit 2,000...it's doable, but he has some god run-D in those 4 games


at 6.2 ypg, this is one of the greatest years for a RB in the history of the NFL

Barry Sanders never had a 6.2 ypc year

Yup, just mad Barry > Adrian

that should have been seen as giving Barry props...not bashing him

like "even the great Barry Sanders never ran for 6.2 YPC in a year"
