No link, but I was watching the game. Check the stats. 30 for 296 and 3 TD's.

Man he is a talent. Breaking the all time record your rookie season. Amazing.

Glad I have him on my fantasy team!!!

I think Jamal Lewis held the record in the low 290s. AD broke it by a couple of yards.

Just to correct you, Jamal had 295 yards, Adrian just broke it just by 1 yard:D

Gee, ya think maybe Childress will let him touch the ball more than 10-11 times a game from now on. What a moron!

I haven't seen much of Peterson, but what I have seen brings one name to mind: Eric Dickerson.

I think he's more physical...and he's got even more break away potential.

He does run high like Dickerson.

I'm glad Childress used him the way he did against the Cowboys.

I'm not even sure it's in a strictly physical sense. It's more the inevitability of his success that brings back Dickerson memories. That TD he scored against us reminded me of Dickerson shredding us in the 1985 playoffs (granted we did a good job against Peterson the rest of the game.)
