Adrian Peterson reminds you of which running back?

Okay so last week I was watching NFL Total Access and you know the went All Access with the Vikings and went behind the scenes and showed Adrian Peterson during film study and him practicing. But before part one of the story, they showed a video of Adrian Peterson and all of the great RBs such as Jim Brown, Walter Payton, Gale Sayers, Barry Sanders, Eric Dickerson, and Emmitt Smith. The video was as if he was a combination of all of them as he was shown using their moves and having their abilities. I'm asking you, which of these backs does Adrian Peterson remind you the most of?

    He reminds me of Erick Dickerson because of his size and speed.

    Why do human beings think of that Adrian Peterson is extra desirable than Steven Jackson or Chris Johnson? through fact he's extra desirable. do no longer forget approximately that AP carried the Vikes offense the final couple of seasons. Being the only offensive weapon, the Vikings went 18-14 the 1st 2 seasons. i admire Stephen Jackson yet he would not have the effect that AP has. Chris Johnson performs for between the suitable coaches interior the league. final season he shared the backfield with Lendale White and White scored 15 TD. EDIT: Who says Chris Johnson would not have a solid line? Kevin Mawae remains between the suitable centers and Michael Roos is a suitable 3 Left handle who completely owned Mario Williams a**.

    A young version of Tony Dorsett.

    HAHA! Emmitt Smith, a "great" RB? Did you ever stop and check the size of the offensive line he had blocking for him? You could've stuck Helen Keller in there on those Cowboys teams and she would've run like him. Please. Barry is a prime example of a great RB, so is Sweetness.

    I'm going with Tiki Barber but only because Tiki had fumble issues at one point in his career. Hopefully like Tiki, Adrian will improve.

    He reminds me of a running back that fumbles on nearly every carrier.
