JBMasterAngler Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 Probably why they took him out and put in Albert Young I say trade Taylor for draft picks since he can't hold on to the ball, Young will do just fine (note the sarcasm) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loon Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 If you don't think Peterson's fumbling is a problem, then you are a dumb human.If you don't think it cost us a game tonight...you are stupid.I can understand and appreciate the determination but question the awareness.Peterson is good with short yardage...goaline...and protecting a lead.Don't you think defenses gear up for Chris Johnson? He still seems to get his yards. Peterson's football savvy and awareness...and hands...are questionable.I like him and don't want to see him gone, but can't defend him tonight.Goaline backs grow on trees. Funny...I thought we had this discussion 8 weeks ago...I wouldn't trust Peterson with my newborn in a crowded mall-Would you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loon Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 The fact that Peterson was relegated to spot duty should be all any knowledgeable football fan should need to see. Aikman touched on it numerous times.Peterson is a....er...WAS...a decoy for 3 months...Until defenses realized he was no threat....on the sideline.

WallyGator12000 Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 This may be the most ridiculous post I have ever read about AP. Was his fumbling a problem? Yes. Did it cost us the game? NO. What cost us the game was all the turnovers combined, Harvin's was bad, Peterson's two were bad, Favre's was bad. Is Peterson the best RB in the league? No, Chris Johnson is. Is he in the top 5? Absolutely. I sure hope you weren't able to type about Peterson being a decoy for 3 months with a straight face, because I sure can't read it without laughing out loud.

ANYFISH2 Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 come on guy's he LOST 1 fumble today. So did Harvin, Berrian, and Farve. It was a team (offensive) loss tonight. Yes he has a problem and needs to shore it up in the offseason, but he not reasponsible for this game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes he has a problem and needs to shore it up in the off-season, but he not responsible for this game. 2 fumbles lost the fist one was charged to Favre. The First one was Peterson's fault for not having the presence to keep his arms far enough part to receive the ball and it didn't help matters that Favre had to lunge to get the ball to him. And it still was 3 fumbles in a game a dependable running back cant do that in a championship game. Defend him all you want those fumbles cost us 14 points and 2 possessions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OIF_Veteran_21B Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 I wouldn't trust Peterson with my newborn in a crowded mall-Would you? I would, As long as the baby isn't leather and shaped like a football. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harvey lee Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 Almost any team in football would take AP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mudcutter Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 the reason the first fumble happened was becasue NewO got penatration and pushed the left sifr of the OL backward throwing off the footwork of AP and then Favre as he had to change his delivery of the handoff.Watch the replay.

LMITOUT Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 Peterson is to fumbling as Favre is to throwing interceptions. Both great players but both will be known for one thing at the end of their careers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
