    Didn't the Vikings site Peterson on third downs if they were passing?

    Remember him coming out a lot.
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

      Me too and this is why I didn't think we'd be interested.

        Doesn't matter. He's done. There is no buzz. He is free, on the open market with no strings attached, and yet, no news.

        Maybe he can go to Oakland and try to prop up interest for a year or two until they scoot to Vegas.

        Unless skittles guy (much better at this point) decides to give it one last shot.

          Players Injuries for the League: Adjusted Games Lost 2917

          Football Outsiders

          For those unfamiliar with AGL, we do not simply add up the number of games missed. We are able to quantify how much teams were affected by injuries based on two principles: (1) Injuries to starters, injury replacements and important situational reserves (No. 3 wide receiver, nickel corner, etc.) matter more than injuries to benchwarmers; and (2) Injured players who do take the field are usually playing with reduced ability, which is why AGL is based not strictly on whether the player was active for the game or not, but instead is based on the player's game status that week (IR/PUP, out, doubtful, questionable, or probable).

          Packers were dead solid average in 2016, though it was not as good a year as 2015.

              Why not? I'm not saying for sure he is. I think it's too early to tell. Just wondering why you're so sure he isn't.
              I can't run no more
              With that lawless crowd
              While the killers in high places
              Say their prayers out loud
              But they've summoned, they've summoned up
              A thundercloud

                I'm saying for sure he is. He's a speed back - comparatively. He has the size and displayed the power last year. And certainly he doesn't need to come out in 3rd down/passing situations.

                Barring injuries - which is always a major factor - he's a golden example of a 3 down back. Combine that with Christine Michael for a speedier change of pace and Ripkowski as either a RB or FB to provide power as a change of pace, and we are in decent shape.
                What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?

                  No way he handles the pounding of a regular back. I have said it before and I will again. Even as little as stubby runs the ball. Monty can not handle the pounding of the feature back. If they go that route he will NOT go more than 6 games without missing time. I am aware of his physical stats, so please don't offer them as a counter. I just don't think he's up to it.

                    He went more than six games this year and missed only marginal time when someone landed on his ankle.

                    So you are saying he will be more vulnerable next year?

                      He will definitely be more vulnerable running behind a weaker line. But that's only part of it imo.

                        Montgomery is not some little runt. Also, he has the advantage of low mileage - not having run and been hit nearly as many times as a lot of RBs even at his fairly young age.

                          Why? Because his uni number is all wrong?
