I love watching this guy tote the rock. He runs angry! It seems like the guy has 2 runs of 50 + every week. It's deff been quite a while since I saw a rookie dominate the league the way that he is. The Vikes got a steal picking him up at number 7 in the draft.

hell yea they did..
remember all the hype that reggie bush had and what has he been...average at best
peterson looks like hes from another planet..like yo said he runs angry and hard all the time..it looks each step he takes is about 3 yards..if the vikings had a QB and some receivers they could be a very good team..

He does look pretty fucking badass so far.
Shame the rest of the Vikings kinda suck, let's hope all the running doesn't take a toll on him down the road.

yep they got a good defense but need to get a passing game
otherwise he may have a short career..sure he can take the hits now..but we have seen it many times where a back looks great and then just loses it
looks like it has happened to shaun alexander this year

Didn't take long for him to finally break down.

I wouldn't say that he broke down. He just got hit in an awkward way. I don't care who the back is, if you take a bad shot like that in the knee you're gonna have some problems. As for a back who's broke down, Larry Johnson comes to mind. And it doesn't surprise me either. Last year when he set a new record for carries in a year, I predicted that this would happen to him this year. Way to go Herm! Guy is the most overrated head coach in the whole league.

The media loves the guy cuz he says "coach" type things in his press conference so it makes for good sound bytes, but as with most coaches like this, it doesn't count for squat on the field. Can anybody else say Jim Mora Sr.? Dennis Green? The good coaches just care about coaching. Press conferences are the furthest thing from their mind. Look at Belichick or Dungy. Their press conferences are about as exciting as watching paint dry. It's because they don't care about crap like that and don't need to listen to themselves talk. Herm would make a great head coach in a movie, but in reality he's average, at best.
