Outshined Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 He is the leader of the Vikings as it showed on Sunday. He showed emotions on the sidelines that I haven't seen from him. He has stepped up to take this team to a new level. There was about nine minutes left in the game when he may have convinced the coaching staff to go for it on 4th down. They didn't make it giving the ball back to the Packers in Vikings territory. When the Vikings got the ball back with under 3 minutes to go, Peterson touched the ball 6 of 7 times and accounted for the 64 of the 69 yards and a TD. It was all drive and determination that won the game. Peterson didn't get those opportunities as a rookie because he didn't know the playbook well or the blocking schemes. Look out for AD in the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
