Adrian Peterson is NOT better than Deangelo or J-Stew

He may have more natural talent than both of them, but he is not better! Both Panthers backs run harder and have to split carries between two of the best backs in the league. I'm tired of the media riding his jock.

By the way: My first thread ever.

williams was the best playing RB in 08 no doubt. And peterson has a severe problem with fumbles that he really needs to get control of. But AP is better than both, he's more talented and produces more. I bet williams or stewart could put up his numbers but we won't know that unless they split up.

Don't you think they fact that stewart and williams run so hard might have to do with the fact that they split carries? You talk about splitting carries like it's a disadvantage. Yeah it lowers their numbers but they are also much fresher. Peterson gets around 75% of the carries and deserves credit for that.

Good players become media darlings, happens all the time. I don't know why your so upset. John Gruden has a mancrush on D-will, he never shuts up about him. It's what happens when you play well.

haha John Gruden was a coach in the NFC south and the Panthers running game blew up Tampa on Monday night football last year, its not surprising that he likes D-will. Dont try to act like Adrian Peterson gets so much more credit than he deserves.

Credit for what? the fact that he gets more carries and doesn't produce on the same level as them?

The only RB that is truly on a different level above DWill/Gore/MJD/etc is Chris Johnson.

The way I see it, it's like:

1) Chris Johnson

2a) DWill

2b)AD

2c)MJD

2d etc etc etc etc

I would personally rather have DWill and J-Stewart as a tandem than any other back in the league.

He is hitting his holes too hard...No patience in his runs..

this year he is reminding me of exactly why Cedric Benson flopped in Chicago. When in Chicago, there was no one in the league that hit and attacked a defense as hard as Benson did evey snap....he would hit defenses hard and violently......but he had no patience for letting blocks develop or vision....and did relatively nothing.

This is kind of a moot argument anyway... you can compare them all you want and everyone has an opinion, but the way I look at it is look at the number of high quality backs in the NFL right now. Excellent football going on. There used to be only a few stars, now there are 7 or 8 guys that you can throw in this discussion of "best RB playing."

      2026 Charlotte Hornets

      I'm sorry but if you're saying the things you are then you don't know ball or are just trolling.    Differential says the hornets are the 7-8th best team in the NBA. They started the year off injured and horrible in clutch moments. They are -6 in expected record because of the above two things and have found out how to win.    Coaching is absolutely not a problem at all, it's a big reason they are turning the corner and winning.    12-3 over the last 15 with only one of those losses at full strength.  +2.8 differential  Starting lineup has the best net of any 5 man lineup in NBA history. They are favorites in 15 of the teams last 22 games.  Their expected record is 44-38, which likely gets them the 6th seed.

      I wouldn’t complain if we drafted Dillon Thieneman at #19 and finally fix the FS black hole we’ve had for so long. He’s a natural cover 3 FS.
