I've been a Viking fan for 40 years, and say what you will about the person you perceive him to be, but Peterson is the best running back I have ever had the pleasure of watching.
This is the dumbest comment i've ever seen, AD gets stopped easily? please, dude averages 4.9 per carry in his career, your talking about the pats like a team AD has played once or twice you have no idea what your talking about. AD has more TDS, more yards, averages 25 yards more per game rushing all the while being the focal point of MN offense for the last 10 years. no matter what defense, AD has ran over, through, around whatever. Chicago had Urlacher in AD's early years and he ran rough shot over them. In 2009 the packers had the number 1 rush defense an AD had to face them twice, 2010 AD faced chicago twice who who number 2 rush defense, played against the jets with the number 3 rush defense, 2012 he faced the number 1 and 4 rush defenses running over 2k. Your arguments are weak
I think you meant he's the best Viking running back, the best running back to watch that ever played the game was barry sanders. AP reminds me a lot of him, without the fumbles. AP was hit or miss when the game was on the line, how many games has he won with a break out long run, how many games has he lost with a fumble in the red zone or where ever, I can recall about even.
An argument can certainly be made for Barry Sanders being the greatest RB ever but Adrian Peterson is not a fumbler. In 10 years Barry Sanders had 3,064 carries, fumbled 41 times (1.3%) and averaged 5.0 yards per carry. In 10 years Adrian Peterson has 2,418 carries he has fumbled 39 (1.6%) times and averaged 4.9 yards per carry. Adrian Peterson did not lose a fumble in the NFC Championship game vs the Saints...he fumbled twice, a Viking RB recovered one Peterson himself recovered the other...check the box score. There was an exchange fumble right before halftime which is attributed to the QB. The half ended with the game tied at 14-14. Peterson did however have 122 yards rushing and 3 TD & 2 rec for 14 yards in the game but he lost no fumbles. The fumble in the playoff game vs Seattle was the first and only fumble Peterson had lost in a playoff game but he did carry the ball to Seattle 9 yard line to set up the potential game winning 27 yard FG in the games final seconds but the kicker missed. Adrian Peterson is 16th all time in NFL history in rushing. Of the 15 runners ahead of him on the list only 3 have less fumbles than Adrian Peterson. Thurman Thomas had 50 fumbles in 13 years Franco Harris had 90 fumbles in 12 years Marcus Allen Had 65 fumbles in 16 years Edgerrin James had 44 fumbles in 11 years Jim Brown had 57 fumbles in 9 years Tony Dorsett had 90 fumbles in 12 years Jerome Bettis had 41 fumbles in 13 years Frank Gore has 42 fumbles in 12 years Eric Dickerson had 78 fumbles in 12 years Barry Sanders had 41 in 10 years Walter Payton had 86 in 13 years Emmitt Smith had 61 fumbles in 15 years Only 3 with less: Marshall Faulk with 36 LaDaninian Tomlinson with 30 & Curtis Martin with 29...so how can Peterson be considered a fumbler? Adrian Peterson has 100 touchdowns...he's lost 23 fumbles...about even? Hardly. #1 in rushing since he’s been in the league - 11,747 #1 in Rushing TD’s since he’s been in the league - 97 (100 total TD) #1 In rushing yards per game since he’s been in the league. #1 100 yard rushing games since he’s been in the league. Before only playing 3 games last season Peterson was #1 in yards from scrimmage since he’s been in the league. Tied #1 NFL all-time 50 plus yard TD runs - 13 Tied #1 NFL all-time 200 yard rushing games - 6 1 of only 2 players in NFL history with 2000 rushing and at least 40 receptions in a season 2012 NFL MVP Most rushing yards in any eight-game period NFL history (1,322) 4th all-time in rushing yards per game - 95.5 Most 200 yard games in NFL history - 6 (tied w/OJ Simpson) Most 60 yard plus TD runs - 13 (tied w/Barry Sanders) Most 50 yard rushes in a season 7 (tied w/Barry Sanders)
At what point do we accept him as the best to ever do it? Speed like Dickerson, strength like Jamal Lewis, elusiveness like Warrick Dunn, injury recovery better than Gale, and ball carrying vision like Barry.
ugo890 Sadly this fuck up last season might just be enough to kill his stats from making him undeniably the GOAT. Cause the 10 game injury + 16 game suspension is about 3000 or so yards hes now lost
***** That is kind of true but no matter what happens from now on stats aside he has had a long enough career to be in the convo, easily a lockdwon top 3 back and definitely a valid choice for prefrence on an All Time team as a starter.
This is the most incredible running back highlight reel I've ever seen. To watch someone that big and powerful accelerate through holes and leave safeties in the dust like that is simply amazing. Tremendous cuts, patience, acceleration, power, vision, and will to lay the boom and fight for the endzone.
+Michael C Thank you! I agree, Peterson is absolutely amazing. Notice 9:25 - 9:34 where he runs through A.J. Hawk as if he were playing against a high school kid.
@@jordonvaughn8277 He's a hall of famer from the contemporary generation as in played within the 2000s. Hall of famers are the greatest football players ever, so it's redundant to say in general since general means across anytime and circumstance.
@@jordonvaughn8277 Hall of famer means one the greatest ever if not the greatest ever; ever means across generations. There is no point in saying any generation. It's redundant and misses the point of what I'm saying.
Prince Vegeta wtf uh yes very close to one of if not is the best running back in the league lol dont let this one year off fool you homie yu better pick em up in a draft bruh
You people who always bring up Sanders and especially Jim Brown really don"t get it do ya. Adrian Peterson as well as the rest of the current NFL players are far better players than the ones of the 60"s and 70s.The players are way bigger faster and most of them stronger.This due to the evolution of the game as well as the players.I have said once and I will say it again Adrian Peterson will retire as the greatest running back ever. And if you were to read the interview that S.I.with Barry Sanders about a year ago he himself said these same words.There is no faster,stronger, fearless, running back ,not to mention the unbelievable vision he has on the field.If you were to ask ANY NFL player who they fear the most when it comes to trying to bring a runner down 9 out of 10 will say AP.I am 79 years old and along with watching 6 and a half \decades of football I was a player with the Baltimore Colts for a while (6 months )in the early 60s before being a assistant at small mid west college
Joel Lane Thank you sir!…I agree, AD is the best I have ever seen. As Ike Taylor said he’s a freight train with the speed of a race car yet he’s agile as a cheetah, he’s Jim Brown (power speed), Gale Sayers (moves/acceleration while cutting) Walter Payton (fierce competitor/power/quickness), Eric Dickerson/Tony Dorsett (full speed in three steps) Barry Sanders (quickness/moves/vision) Emmitt Smith (heart/balance, muscle endurance)…all rolled into one. Examples: pause at 4:29 #24 Ike Taylor is in the hole in perfect position and he can’t even touch him, as his foot hits the ground he stiff arms a LB accelerates at the same time and outruns the safety Ryan Clark, who had an angle, for the TD. AD does the same thing at 4:44 and then the freakish acceleration. At 7:09 he should be tackled for a 3 yard loss but he makes 3 defenders miss in the backfield, Barry Sanders like, and gains 4 yards…he’s unreal.
RIGHT. Those old announcers say stuff like "that wouldn't have been flagged back in my day" and stuff like that but its so B.S the new players would dominate any other team from 1940-1985.IMO the Seahawks have the BEST defense of all time! Coming from a Patriots fan! Lmao
Well if they had the same advantages in the weight room as today's athletes do then it would be a different story thats a horrible way to compare generations
wolfcalls I hope everyone in the stadium for his first game back shows up with a "welcome back" or "Go AP" "ALL DAY" sign or it would be awesome if people had signs that said "The Record Falls This Season" because we all know what happened last time he was angry
Cant tell you how many times when I was younger when AP first started playing for Mn and either on T.V or the radio we would hear the announcer say his famous line "HE'S LOOSE!!!!" oooooooo gave me goosebumps every time!
Bravo my Brother from the same mother. Beautiful video compilation. You get better and better. Should be must see video for all the AP haters and doubters. The silence from them would be deafening. He is arguably the best RB in the history of the NFL. The return of a motivated AP with the emergence of the first good QB since Brett Farvre, in one Teddy Bridgewater the vikings are going to make some noise this year. Can you say "super bowl homeboy".
I've watched this video over 20 times. Best motivation if you need to get in the zone. I always played angry because life was rough. I can relate to his mindset, he always gave it his all. ADAP will always be my favorite player.
Adrian Peterson will not be denied cause he was a force to be reckend he was awesome to watch 2007 nfl draft he was a 1st Round 7th overall University of Oklahoma i do miss him he will be in the Hall Of Fame real soon 2007 Rookie of the year he had 296 rushing yards vs Chargers it was one of if not the one of the greatest single game performance in NFL's History he won the 2012 NFL's MVP he became the 2nd RB to rush for 2,000 yards in a season i understand he did win or play in his 1st Super Bowl Title but it's not his fault let alone he won't be haunted of the things he didn't do like win a super bowl or another 2,000 yards but he was still the G.O.A.T at the Running Back for sure 0:35
I don't care what anyone says. Adrian Peterson has been, still, and is going to continue to be the best back in the league by far! No other back in the league can have those types of amazing runs, and do them as frequently as Adrien does. Every time he touches the ball, chances are pretty good he's going for at least a 10-15 yard scramble regardless if the original play crumbles to pieces. And there's an even higher chance he's going to break out a 20-30-40 yard run every other play. Most backs will make a 20 yard run every 15-20 plays. AP does them every 7-12 plays. Let's not forget he's actually pretty quick in the cut, makes decisions in an instant, has excellent straight line speed and acceleration..Oh, and he's as strong as an OX! People are starting to worry about his age, but keep in mind he's had a season and a half to recover over the years..I think he's still going to be the best back for at least another 3-4 seasons..
He has the best combination of speed, strength and elusiveness EVER...I mean he does everything..He can hit the defense with the shake and bake, a cut back, stiff arm and or just put his head down and drag 3-5 guys with him regardless of who they are cool unbelievable he's the greatest ever..us Vikings fans been blessed with AP and Randy Moss few years before that.
Bo Jackson doesn't belong in the same sentence as Adrian Peterson...Bo never even rushed for over a 1,000 yards lool and he only played 4 years wit 2700 yards
Notice almost every play of these big play highlights are late in the 4th with the vikings trailing. That's when he saw most of his production. That's why he's the GOAT.
He ran a 4.4 40. But at his prime he was as fast in pads as any RB to ever play. His initial burst is unreal. Unfortunately he's only played with 1 good QB during his time with the Vikings.
Yours is a typical white boy comment. Try to understand that Adrian Peterson is a great football player REGARDLESS of who he plays with, OK? Too be forever mindful that the Caucasian Quarterback in the National Football League exist by "design", and sadly not by merit, integrity, virtue! (commonly known as POLITICS) Please try to understand that the sordid entity of POLITICS in the National Football League - just as in any other business - starts at the very top (where the so-called "power" is )
This is a very good highlight video of the great, Adrian Peterson! Without question, Mr. Peterson is indeed among the most fabulous running backs in the history of the National Football League! He has pure speed, exceleration, extraordinary lateral quickness, and is super tough.
My goodness, this is guy is unreal. You know you're stupid fast when the person watching the video had to double check to see if the video was sped up.
One thing is certain after watching these highlights.....nobody on the Detroit Lions can tackle Mr. Peterson. I don't watch any football games any more but I do like to watch highlight films like this. This is the first time I've seen Peterson. He has to be in the top 5 of all time.
Best running back I've ever seen when he was in his prime. Disclaimer, I never saw emmitt, walter, or Barry play but ap never had a team around him and he sure as hell never had emmitt smiths line, I know that for a fact. Dude is an insane athlete. Sucks that he missed 2 seasons..
Vegas has us picked to only win around 7 to 8 games. If this team stays healthy, they could win around 11 to 12 games. This team might be the most overlooked team in The NFL this year. I'm picking the over on Minnesota. I could be wrong, but this team has the potential to be a nightmare for anybody. Watch out!
KORY ANDREL SCOTT we won 7 without AP, Kyle Rudolph and a developing QB. Easily 9 wins with a major injury. 11-5, 10-6 if everyone stays healthy down the stretch
KORY ANDREL SCOTT you better be ready for that week 1 ass kicking starting the sorry ass Vikings at 0-1. Go Niners! get on your knees and kiss the 5 rings.
Steve Erkel 49ers are 0-1 b4 the season ever started. Vikings are gonna put up 30+ pts and teddy puts up over 300yds. And 2TDs A.D. 90+ 2tds. Kapp has his hands full. No one to throw to. Mn 37 Sf 21. That's was from pity or else I would have gave them 14. Go 0-1 9ners.😤
Adrian Peterson is the most exciting player to watch. You will never know what he will do next, and that my friends, is what makes him so enjoyable to watch.
dcringsdontlie Thanks...Darren McFadden is a whole lot better than people know so we'll see y'all (Cowboys) up here at TCF Stadium for the NFC Championship game January 24th 2016.
The catch and run at 3:30 is my personal favorite. I was watching it live and go back to it for the scream he roars out after the run. He was a man possessed on that play.
Not gonna lie I'm not old enough to have watched Walter play in his days. This is just an opinion. Ive seen lots of highlights. But I've never seen an Adrian Peterson before. Plus his story from his injuries and then coming back the next year and rushing for 2000 yards. Pretty inspiring and legendary.
aj w i Agree they shouldve, however they did not suspend him right away like most teams wouldve done. He was set to play that sunday before being pulled late. Id say thats standing by him, and they still paid the man!

They could've went about it a little better but as a man you should discipline your kids but not to the extent where the child has marks all over his body especially the world we live in now...
Been a vikings fan my whole life. We had the best receiver of all time (randy moss) and now we have the best running back of all time. Its time for a damn ring
Love Love Love the way this guy runs! Powerful guy! Man, he is fun to watch. I hit your red button. Very enjoyable video. Unbelievable physical specimen!!!
Wow, this is one of THE best Adrian Peterson videos Ive seen. Good job. Because I believe AD is something special, and Teddy is somebody who could really continue to improve and impress, Im curious at anybody's thoughts on the 8-1 odds for the Vikes to win NFC North
+The Prophet From Trailopen GET READY for another dismal season. They won't be 8 and 8 like normal but, maybe 9 and 7. IF they make a wildcard game, they will lose because that's is what they do.
RIght? Made him look like a scrub. And pat man willstock is an all pro every fucken year he's in the league. Dude is force. And Peterson trucked him. Love my 9ers. Love me some AD.
you're right . but re watch the video . ap would get hit on half of those two yard off the scrimmage but his ninja feet and cheetah speed is unfair and big like a ram .. not right.. i would love to see him and gronk go head up
I've been a Viking fan for 40 years, and say what you will about the person you perceive him to be, but Peterson is the best running back I have ever had the pleasure of watching.
Are you serious? Well, that is certainly your opinion.
Marshawn Lynch isn't a hall of fame running back, not even close, Peterson is a first ballot hall of famer.
This is the dumbest comment i've ever seen, AD gets stopped easily? please, dude averages 4.9 per carry in his career, your talking about the pats like a team AD has played once or twice you have no idea what your talking about. AD has more TDS, more yards, averages 25 yards more per game rushing all the while being the focal point of MN offense for the last 10 years. no matter what defense, AD has ran over, through, around whatever. Chicago had Urlacher in AD's early years and he ran rough shot over them. In 2009 the packers had the number 1 rush defense an AD had to face them twice, 2010 AD faced chicago twice who who number 2 rush defense, played against the jets with the number 3 rush defense, 2012 he faced the number 1 and 4 rush defenses running over 2k. Your arguments are weak
I think you meant he's the best Viking running back, the best running back to watch that ever played the game was barry sanders. AP reminds me a lot of him, without the fumbles. AP was hit or miss when the game was on the line, how many games has he won with a break out long run, how many games has he lost with a fumble in the red zone or where ever, I can recall about even.
An argument can certainly be made for Barry Sanders being the greatest RB ever but Adrian Peterson is not a fumbler. In 10 years Barry Sanders had 3,064 carries, fumbled 41 times (1.3%) and averaged 5.0 yards per carry. In 10 years Adrian Peterson has 2,418 carries he has fumbled 39 (1.6%) times and averaged 4.9 yards per carry.
Adrian Peterson did not lose a fumble in the NFC Championship game vs the Saints...he fumbled twice, a Viking RB recovered one Peterson himself recovered the other...check the box score. There was an exchange fumble right before halftime which is attributed to the QB. The half ended with the game tied at 14-14. Peterson did however have 122 yards rushing and 3 TD & 2 rec for 14 yards in the game but he lost no fumbles.
The fumble in the playoff game vs Seattle was the first and only fumble Peterson had lost in a playoff game but he did carry the ball to Seattle 9 yard line to set up the potential game winning 27 yard FG in the games final seconds but the kicker missed.
Adrian Peterson is 16th all time in NFL history in rushing. Of the 15 runners ahead of him on the list only 3 have less fumbles than Adrian Peterson.
Thurman Thomas had 50 fumbles in 13 years
Franco Harris had 90 fumbles in 12 years
Marcus Allen Had 65 fumbles in 16 years
Edgerrin James had 44 fumbles in 11 years
Jim Brown had 57 fumbles in 9 years
Tony Dorsett had 90 fumbles in 12 years
Jerome Bettis had 41 fumbles in 13 years
Frank Gore has 42 fumbles in 12 years
Eric Dickerson had 78 fumbles in 12 years
Barry Sanders had 41 in 10 years
Walter Payton had 86 in 13 years
Emmitt Smith had 61 fumbles in 15 years
Only 3 with less: Marshall Faulk with 36 LaDaninian Tomlinson with 30 & Curtis Martin with 29...so how can Peterson be considered a fumbler?
Adrian Peterson has 100 touchdowns...he's lost 23 fumbles...about even? Hardly.

He's already the GOAT, don't care what anyone else says
ugo890 True, hes simply wayyy to fucking good.
ugo890 Sadly this fuck up last season might just be enough to kill his stats from making him undeniably the GOAT. Cause the 10 game injury + 16 game suspension is about 3000 or so yards hes now lost
***** That is kind of true but no matter what happens from now on stats aside he has had a long enough career to be in the convo, easily a lockdwon top 3 back and definitely a valid choice for prefrence on an All Time team as a starter.
Ken Masters If he can manage to go 5 more years wth at least 2-3 ADP years (his typical 1500) he could still top the record books

+Michael C I'd say Emmitt Smiths highlight reel is a bit better. My opinion tho. i'd say they are equally good but in the long run, Emmitt is better.
I never realized how fast he is. Burning corners and safetys before they even know what's going on.
+Jeff White he has everything power,speed,vision
that's BC they soo worried he gone lay the boom lol do he show em he fast also
yea this nigga fast dab
Still come back to this after all these years. Excellent video, excellent player, excellent song
Thank you!
Sadly his prime was only a few years. But goddddddamnnnn what a prime
As a Vikings fan since Warren Moon was the QB...It has been a privilege to watch the best WR ever in Randy Moss and the best RB in Adrian Peterson.
Haha buddy, the best RB ever isn't AP, it's Barry. And the soon to be best WR ever is Calvin Johnson.
hussein335 actually the best Rb is Jim Brown and the best WR is Jerry Rice
The best QB is John Elway running back Bo Jackson and WR Randy Moss
No the funnest wr and rb to watch has been Moss and A.p.
hussein335 calvin the best? if he wasn't 6'5 he would be a nobody, one trick pony.
A Hall Of Fame Player of this generation.
hes hof in general
@@jordonvaughn8277 He's a hall of famer from the contemporary generation as in played within the 2000s. Hall of famers are the greatest football players ever, so it's redundant to say in general since general means across anytime and circumstance.
@@mpcc2022 hed be a hofer in ANY generation of the game of football
@@jordonvaughn8277 Hall of famer means one the greatest ever if not the greatest ever; ever means across generations. There is no point in saying any generation. It's redundant and misses the point of what I'm saying.
I watch this video every morning after I wake to make sure I stay motivated and determined to go as hard at life as Adrian Peterson goes at defenses.
Best running back in the league.
of course not even close
Prince Vegeta wtf uh yes very close to one of if not is the best running back in the league lol dont let this one year off fool you homie yu better pick em up in a draft bruh
are you dumb...i agreed that he is.
jus a liil
Peterson nickname AP... marshawn lynch's nickname beast mode. I disagree there's a new beast.
RIP to all the guys whose lives were lost trying to stop AD.
Brandon Ferguson lmao
Brandon Ferguson (ap*)
GabedoesGames Yo Nope, it's 'AD' as in "All Day". He was given that nick name in high school and it carried over to college at OU.
Now imagine if he played Strong Safety..... Maaaaan!
I love that the guy who made this video kept the original audio. Sometimes it can be a lot better than music. This is definitely one of those times

wolfcalls I hope everyone in the stadium for his first game back shows up with a "welcome back" or "Go AP" "ALL DAY" sign or it would be awesome if people had signs that said "The Record Falls This Season" because we all know what happened last time he was angry
ABSOLUTELY !
Been watching this for 5 years now..
Adrian Peterson: The Greatest runningback, football player, and athlete the world has ever seen.
He accelerates so fast omg. It's insane
Yeah no way he ran a 4.4 40 yard dash he looked like he ran a 4.2
He probably got faster than 4.4 somewhere between his rookie and MVP seasons
One of those few guys missing a ring that deserve it
One of my all time favorite highlight videos
What a monster. My fav player of all time
Everytime I was AP highlights, the legendary "ANNDDDD HES LOOOOOSSSSEEEEEE" just sits right with me. hype for 15'!
Give me 1 running back. from any era. in his prime. Im taking Adrian Peterson. no questions asked.
Remember watching this when I was 13. Still the best highlight montage out there 🙏🏻
Wow this was well put together! Nicely done, Awesome video!
+mywifefarts thank you and thank you for watching!
Obviously you're a vikings fan. Are you in Minnesota?
*****
Big time Vikings fan, yes, Minneapolis
Cool, I'm in Blaine
+mywifefarts BLAINE won 1989 ... GO TORNADOS
Cant tell you how many times when I was younger when AP first started playing for Mn and either on T.V or the radio we would hear the announcer say his famous line "HE'S LOOSE!!!!" oooooooo gave me goosebumps every time!
He carried the Vikings to the playoffs even with an awful Qb
u talking about this uear
+the beast gamer year*
+the beast gamer yes, teddy is very average to me
+the beast gamer He's talking about the 2012 season dum dum.
+Mikeilivesthelife I think it's the same with the Bears I don't think Matt forte is up there with AP but he's still good,but the o-line sucks
Just a Viking fan reminiscing on the good ole days. It was a huge pleasure having him on our side for so long; we may never see another back like him.
Best running back of ALL time...
Omg, I remember sitting in my living room as a little kid watching this video. Still love it in 2024
Please, Norv, bring back the screen play to AD!!!
Also McKinnon, wallace, Patterson and wright. We got a lot of speed on offense
this. I could watch this ALL DAY.
Bravo my Brother from the same mother. Beautiful video compilation. You get better and better. Should be must see video for all the AP haters and doubters. The silence from them would be deafening. He is arguably the best RB in the history of the NFL. The return of a motivated AP with the emergence of the first good QB since Brett Farvre, in one Teddy Bridgewater the vikings are going to make some noise this year. Can you say "super bowl homeboy".
I've watched this video over 20 times. Best motivation if you need to get in the zone. I always played angry because life was rough. I can relate to his mindset, he always gave it his all. ADAP will always be my favorite player.
I gotta say that block from Favre was fantastic. An old qb like him would've just stayed back but that took guts and heart.
+Edward Messer at 7:45
Brett Favre will always be one of the toughest players ever he played with injuries all the time
+Edward Messer that wasn't a block he was scared shit less of the hit and completely missed
+Dane Hales
If he was scared shitless he wouldn't have even attempted the block
+Dane Hales are you blind? Lol because clearly you see fave dive at him and the defender just side steps away towards AP, he didn't miss on purpose
Adrian Peterson will not be denied cause he was a force to be reckend he was awesome to watch 2007 nfl draft he was a 1st Round 7th overall University of Oklahoma i do miss him he will be in the Hall Of Fame real soon 2007 Rookie of the year he had 296 rushing yards vs Chargers it was one of if not the one of the greatest single game performance in NFL's History he won the 2012 NFL's MVP he became the 2nd RB to rush for 2,000 yards in a season i understand he did win or play in his 1st Super Bowl Title but it's not his fault let alone he won't be haunted of the things he didn't do like win a super bowl or another 2,000 yards but he was still the G.O.A.T at the Running Back for sure 0:35
god he's a monster
I don't care what anyone says. Adrian Peterson has been, still, and is going to continue to be the best back in the league by far! No other back in the league can have those types of amazing runs, and do them as frequently as Adrien does. Every time he touches the ball, chances are pretty good he's going for at least a 10-15 yard scramble regardless if the original play crumbles to pieces. And there's an even higher chance he's going to break out a 20-30-40 yard run every other play. Most backs will make a 20 yard run every 15-20 plays. AP does them every 7-12 plays. Let's not forget he's actually pretty quick in the cut, makes decisions in an instant, has excellent straight line speed and acceleration..Oh, and he's as strong as an OX! People are starting to worry about his age, but keep in mind he's had a season and a half to recover over the years..I think he's still going to be the best back for at least another 3-4 seasons..
amazing, i get chills watching him play
the greatest running back ever thats why u get chills lls
^^^^
The defence now a days is harder to run against and he makes it look so easy
IOR Steelers its not even that eyetest alone his package is like lebron for nba except this contact sport lmao not fair
Love this video! Definitely my favorite AP highlight video. Good old days when AP would destroy 9 man boxes!!! Real football!!!
He has the best combination of speed, strength and elusiveness EVER...I mean he does everything..He can hit the defense with the shake and bake, a cut back, stiff arm and or just put his head down and drag 3-5 guys with him regardless of who they are cool unbelievable he's the greatest ever..us Vikings fans been blessed with AP and Randy Moss few years before that.
bo jackson
Bo Jackson doesn't belong in the same sentence as Adrian Peterson...Bo never even rushed for over a 1,000 yards lool and he only played 4 years wit 2700 yards
Bo is overrated garbage Marcus Allen is ten times better than bo and played at the same time as him check him out
This has got to be one of the greatest things I've ever seen in my life.
This gets me so pumped
Favre's little block at 7:41 was so clutch. He may have just been a chucker, but that man had heart.
Adrian Peterson is the GOAT 🐐
My fave running back ever AP the 🐐
Probably the highlight mobo watched
Notice almost every play of these big play highlights are late in the 4th with the vikings trailing. That's when he saw most of his production. That's why he's the GOAT.
He ran a 4.4 40. But at his prime he was as fast in pads as any RB to ever play. His initial burst is unreal. Unfortunately he's only played with 1 good QB during his time with the Vikings.
+Matt Dickey he ran a 4.38.. and honestly he hasnt lost much speed at all which is unreal considering hes 30
+krb0123 hes slowed down in pads but used to be super fast in them
He slowed town a hair but considering his age and the amount of hits he's taken he is still ridiculously fast
Yours is a typical white boy comment. Try to understand that Adrian Peterson is a great football player REGARDLESS of who he plays with, OK? Too be forever mindful that the Caucasian Quarterback in the National Football League exist by "design", and sadly not by merit, integrity, virtue! (commonly known as POLITICS) Please try to understand that the sordid entity of POLITICS in the National Football League - just as in any other business - starts at the very top (where the so-called "power" is )
This is a very good highlight video of the great, Adrian Peterson! Without question, Mr. Peterson is indeed among the most fabulous running backs in the history of the National Football League! He has pure speed, exceleration, extraordinary lateral quickness, and is super tough.
Nice vision for the editing really enjoyed the video!
+Shelby Eubanks Thank you! Thank you for watching.
There are a shit ton of reasons to be optimistic about the Vikings chances this year, and at the forefront is the return this guy right here.
Greatest RB of this era. Simple as that.
My goodness, this is guy is unreal. You know you're stupid fast when the person watching the video had to double check to see if the video was sped up.
You haven't seen this kind of combination of speed and power since maybe Bo Jackson. And I don't even think Bo had the type of burst that Adrian has.
I like how you added in a lot of his blocking highlights. Not enough runningbacks get enough credit for their blocking ability. Great video.
+Hank Hill Thank you and thanks for watching!
Greatest Back to ever come out of OU and that is saying something! Love him!!!!
Barbara Bowman-Fuller Probably the BEST that will EVER Come out of OU
Don't Bet on it Bubba!
Definitely one of the best I have ever seen.
Just imaging him behind the Cowboys O Line
Right?
That would be unfair to all defenses
2,500 yard season probably
They have Zeke though...
true
One thing is certain after watching these highlights.....nobody on the Detroit Lions can tackle Mr. Peterson. I don't watch any football games any more but I do like to watch highlight films like this. This is the first time I've seen Peterson. He has to be in the top 5 of all time.
For my Twolves fans out there:
I hope watching Wiggins career from the beginning will be as enjoyable as watching AP's has been
+Fro Buntu same for KAT
Towns
watching this video gives me the chills ever time.
Damn I miss this Ap. he was SICK in his prime.
+Mikeilivesthelife he is still really good almost godlike
ad*
Gavin Da Boss he can be but the Vikings o-line is trash
but it is still the same ap, just different oline
+Connor Owens AP/AD (Adrian Peterson/All Day) i prefer AP
Best running back I've ever seen when he was in his prime. Disclaimer, I never saw emmitt, walter, or Barry play but ap never had a team around him and he sure as hell never had emmitt smiths line, I know that for a fact. Dude is an insane athlete. Sucks that he missed 2 seasons..
3:41
The sound you make when your mom says yes to getting Fallout 4
his heart is what separates him from everyone else.
u hate to see somebody like him age
This guy is on a completely different level compared to everyone else on the field. He's making world class athletes look like amateurs.
Vegas has us picked to only win around 7 to 8 games. If this team stays healthy, they could win around 11 to 12 games. This team might be the most overlooked team in The NFL this year. I'm picking the over on Minnesota. I could be wrong, but this team has the potential to be a nightmare for anybody. Watch out!
True
KORY ANDREL SCOTT we won 7 without AP, Kyle Rudolph and a developing QB. Easily 9 wins with a major injury. 11-5, 10-6 if everyone stays healthy down the stretch
KORY ANDREL SCOTT you better be ready for that week 1 ass kicking starting the sorry ass Vikings at 0-1. Go Niners! get on your knees and kiss the 5 rings.
Steve Erkel 49ers are 0-1 b4 the season ever started. Vikings are gonna put up 30+ pts and teddy puts up over 300yds. And 2TDs A.D. 90+ 2tds. Kapp has his hands full. No one to throw to. Mn 37 Sf 21. That's was from pity or else I would have gave them 14. Go 0-1 9ners.😤
KojTxiv Haam San Fran wont score 21 on this defense. 17 max
Adrian Peterson is the most exciting player to watch. You will never know what he will do next, and that my friends, is what makes him so enjoyable to watch.
He would have looked so good wearing the star. Hats off to the vikings fan, I would have loved cheering for this guy.
dcringsdontlie Thanks...Darren McFadden is a whole lot better than people know so we'll see y'all (Cowboys) up here at TCF Stadium for the NFC Championship game January 24th 2016.
We can argue about where later, but we will definitely be in the mix.
Bruce Davis Still isn't anywhere NEAR Petersons level, only back I've seen near AD's level was Murray last year.
Bruce Davis lol
McFadden will do fine. If he stays healthy. When he's healthy, he's a beast. That Dallas O-Line should do him well.
amazing ....one of the best to ever do it.
9:17 Revis Island had a tsunami hahaha RAW Power, literally THREW Revis like he was a rag doll, and same with Sherman, threw his ass to the curb.
I think this year will be Peterson's best shot at a title since 2009.
Greatest RB of all-time!
facts
not even I love him to death but give Barry sanders some respect...
jacob thomas please u got eyes use em barry not better then no a.p
Bad ass Video!!! Great job. There's no way you can't respect this mans work .
Miguel Elizalde thank you for watching!
my first time hearing AP screaming like that 3:43
The catch and run at 3:30 is my personal favorite. I was watching it live and go back to it for the scream he roars out after the run. He was a man possessed on that play.
I ain't never seen nobody truck Willis the way Peterson did at 8:50 Respect
Said the same thing
Awesome work. Sure he'll make another statement this year, just like when people doubted him coming back from the ACL.
Adrian "All gas no breaks" Peterson
One of THE best highlight reels I've ever seen...and I'm a Cowboys fan. keep up the great work, man!!
Best back ever. Easily.
+Hugh Jass What about Walter?
Not gonna lie I'm not old enough to have watched Walter play in his days. This is just an opinion. Ive seen lots of highlights. But I've never seen an Adrian Peterson before. Plus his story from his injuries and then coming back the next year and rushing for 2000 yards. Pretty inspiring and legendary.
Not yet, he has the potential certainly though.
+Hugh Jass took me sometime but Id take him over walter. the only back id take over peterson is barry sanders.
yea its def easy if u aint brainwash
4:40 best call in broadcast history, gives me chills everytime
Great Video and what an amazing HB... The vikings should have had this mans back.. SMH
aj w i Agree they shouldve, however they did not suspend him right away like most teams wouldve done. He was set to play that sunday before being pulled late. Id say thats standing by him, and they still paid the man!

They could've went about it a little better but as a man you should discipline your kids but not to the extent where the child has marks all over his body especially the world we live in now...
Thank you, people always say AD can't catch. They don't know what they're talking about, they just say that because "he can't be good at that too!"
Been a vikings fan my whole life. We had the best receiver of all time (randy moss) and now we have the best running back of all time. Its time for a damn ring
Ikr we gonna win against the seahawks then the Superbowl man
sorry man but Jerry Rice was the best WR ever. There's no contest there.
27 yards.
+NumberOneStirlingite we're cursed
Cough Steve young cough joe Montana cough cough
Love Love Love the way this guy runs! Powerful guy! Man, he is fun to watch. I hit your red button. Very enjoyable video. Unbelievable physical specimen!!!
Thank you Leonard and thanks for watching! AD is amazing, fast, elusive and physical.
Wow, this is one of THE best Adrian Peterson videos Ive seen. Good job. Because I believe AD is something special, and Teddy is somebody who could really continue to improve and impress, Im curious at anybody's thoughts on the 8-1 odds for the Vikes to win NFC North
If adrian plays good, I think that they're defintely capable of winning the NFC North because now we have a quarterback and a running back.
Mry64 Last time AP had to stay away, he rushed for 2097 hes more angry than he has ever been. The record goes down this year.
Thomas Jefferson I feel the same way. baby!
Don't forget the stacked defense
+The Prophet From Trailopen GET READY for another dismal season. They won't be 8 and 8 like normal but, maybe 9 and 7. IF they make a wildcard game, they will lose because that's is what they do.
Captivating video. Excellent work.
+Sajad Husain Thank you and thank you for watching.
+Bruce Davis Yessur.
8:51. Watch how AP gave patty will that pressure
Knocked him right into retirement!
RIght? Made him look like a scrub. And pat man willstock is an all pro every fucken year he's in the league. Dude is force. And Peterson trucked him. Love my 9ers. Love me some AD.
Superb job, Bruce! One of the best highlight films of AP I have seen.
Bacon and cheese has been stuffed into a crust Thank you! Thanks for watching.
No wonder the Vikings don't want to get rid of him.
Nice work! You've outdone yourself Bruce. Great flow
As a Sooner fan much love and respect to AD, but shit as a Bears fan he didn't have to do that to my team like that,...lmao
ANNNND HEEESSSS LOOOOOSE! Damn that was greatness!
If he stayed healthy he would have shattered Emmit Smith Rushing record EASY!!!
Vikings are blessed to have him on their team. Best running back of the 21st century!!
All of these plays wouldn't have been possible without the line #linemangetnolove
The have a horrible o-line
+Caleb Tate no the vikings are known for having a good line. From 2010 to 2013 3 of our 5 were pro bowl linemen.
pro bowl means shit you vote for your favorite not the best
you're right . but re watch the video . ap would get hit on half of those two yard off the scrimmage but his ninja feet and cheetah speed is unfair and big like a ram .. not right.. i would love to see him and gronk go head up
viking have the 14th best offensive line in the league.

who in their right mind would give this a thumbs down?
Derek Holmlund William gay
top 3 rb of all time if not number 1
nahhh more like number 1.
Excellent Video Man. Good Job. Love the last part
jsmithd305 Thank you sir! I laugh every time I watch Alec Baldwin tell that joke. Hahaha
