Adrian Peterson wants to be traded to 1 of 5 teams, one in the NFC south

Interesting bit of useless trivia - in 4 career games against Carolina, he's not had more than 83 rushing yards, and the 2009 team held him to 35 yards on 12 carries.

 

In that 2009 35 yard rushing game, he also had 73 yards receiving (24.3 average per reception) and a touchdown

 

In the 2011 83 yard rushing game, he also 76 yards receiving and two touchdowns

 

We lost both, and Adrian Peterson was a huge reason why.

 

2008 and 2013 were his worst games against us, and he still got 77 yards rushing in 2008, and 62 yards rushing with an additional 21 yards receiving in 2013.

 

Those aren't bad games by any means.  He's went well over 100 yards in 2 games, and right around 80 in the other 2.

Might want to check your facts there and look past the stats.

They most certainly did not beat us in 2009... that was a prime time beat down with Matt Moore at the helm. His touchdown you made sure to point out was a long swing pass in garbage time. When they were down 26-0. He was invisible in that game. Julius Peppers and Co shut his ass down.

And 2011? He got us good. No doubt. But I put no stock in that game. Not because James FUGING Anderson was our best defensive player. Not because Terrell McClain and Sione Fua were our DTs but because Olindo Mare missed a chip shot FG that would have tied it up.

You combine that with Jared Allen getting two strip sacks that set up his two scores and it's really a moot point.

AP hasn't done poo against us. Considering he's also soon to be 30 I would love to see him get traded to Tampa (preferably for their number 1) and watch them wallow in their own misery.

    • I can say that I have defended Canales because I get that they are doing all they can to keep from looking like idiots for drafting Bryce, from the trade up to signing $150m guards to drafting XL and Brooks etc---nothing seems to work.  And Hiring Canales was part of the Bryce Young rehab program, so so he can't really decide to "move on."  That has to come from Morgan and Tepper. Personally, I think Bryce is due for an injury.  He is small, he is not thick, and he has been a LOT more healthy than most any other QB has who has endured so much pressure.  The thing that bothers me is this---Bryce really does not go through his progressions quickly.  He locks on to his presnap read and stays locked onto him for too long--he seems to fail to anticipate the WR/TE's positioning on the play before the cut--for example, if the WR is running a dig and the CB has his back to the inside of the field, he should be open for a second or less just after the cut.  He seems to wait until the cut has been made before deciding, then checking down quickly while moving in the pocket. OL:  There seems to be a lack of communication--is that on Mays?  Watch this team presnap--they seem a bit confused at times.   I can almost predict the success rate of the play by watching the center and QB before the snap.  
    • Anyone else remember back in 2010 when Fox piloted having music under the in-game replays during one of Carolina's games? Not the commercial bumpers but the actual replay clips that the announcers would talk over. Pretty sure it was vs the 49ers. And it was terrible. Point being, Carolina continues being so bad that we get the networks trying things out during their games.
    • Is it bad I found this video more hilarious than pathetic? I am still laughing at that one play where half the people on the field ran into each other and Bryce still couldn't see Chuba wide open... Also laughing at Cade blocking nobody and somehow losing his cleat Man this offense is a poo show
