Oops, I jinxed AP.
I'd stick with comparing him to rooks.
I can't think of anyone in the last few years in a similar situation who came close to those totals except KJones. Limited carries, poor QB play, etc. The Vikes do have a better OL and D than the Lions had that year. And there's no question AP is more talented.
Just talking out loud.

Is Peterson really that good or is the Viking O-line not getting enough credit?
Let's not forget that the Vikings offensive line is anchored by pro bowlers Steve Hutchinson, Bryant McKinnie and Matt Birk.
It's gotta be the line if an average RB like Chester Taylor was springing big runs yesterday plus had a robust YPC in the Charger game as well.
Peterson is a uva talent, no doubt about it, but he's not doing it all on his own.
I don't like peterman at all, but to be fair Taylor had a pretty good year last year until he got banged up.
peterman could very well have Barry Sanders type talent (doubtful, but possible). Unfortunately, he has Fred Taylor or Chris Perry type fragility.
"peterman"?
Along with "darth visor" and "leslie," this has to be one of your worst nicknames
