For the record, Adrian Peterson enjoys the scene from the original "Rocky" movie when Sylvester Stallone calls out to Talia Shire, "Yo, Adrian!"

Very nice read my friend.

Hey, anyone want Tomlin back?
This is the second time I've asked this with no reply.
;D

The Vikings have consistently rotated defensive linemen in and out all season to keep guys fresh. This philosophy has given guys like Robison, Mitchell, and defensive tackle Fred Evans extra reps that they may not have had on other teams

We have pretty good players on D, so they make coaches look good. Fraizer is doing a good job though, so I think we got a good replacement.

Tomlin were still good too though. Try taking a look at that Steelers D, they are pretty darn decent also

Your right, however, alot of people on here worried about our rushing defense going to hell after Tomlin left and heck for that matter alot of people contended that we should have kept him and shitcanned the Chiller for that matter.

Silly Naysayers....... ;D

Willis vs. Peterson could become freak show
Adrian Peterson calls Patrick Willis “a freak.” He means it as the highest form of compliment. Willis knows all about what Peterson’s saying. It’s freakish football talent, something Peterson and Willis surely possess, which could lead to a freaky kind of thing Sunday when the two go helmet-to-helmet in a match-up of leading candidates for the NFL’s offensive & defensive rookie of the year honors.




This is a good article about the two ROY candidates.
