It will make me nauseous if the Patriots sign Peterson and once again make the rest of the NFL look like fools.

My thoughts exactly. Barry Sanders would look mundane behind this OL. They're chosen to pass protect, not run block. A good reason they can't run for it on 3rd and 1 or 4th and inches.
I wonder why there are other teams that can figure it out and do both, but ours can't.

Peterson has left the Patriots without a deal after his visit today.
They can sign both stillLook for Blount to re-sign with the Patriots this week.
I disagree... Montgomery has impressed me from day one. He just needs to stay healthy...I don't think it would be smart for Montgomery to lose some weight. He's not as talented as Faulk by any means though.
or perhaps you should ease up on the hyperbole and wait until Monty has proven something beyond one decent partial season before insulting a Hall of Fame member.I disagree... Montgomery has impressed me from day one. He just needs to stay healthy...
The weight comment was sarcasm. Considering him and lacy have had the same ankle problems the last two years.
P.s.
You should let him play a healthy season before declaring him not worthy...

I remember Montgomery being sterling sharpesque before he moved to rb too....or perhaps you should ease up on the hyperbole and wait until Monty has proven something beyond one decent partial season before insulting a Hall of Fame member.

What could AP really do for us. He is getting quite old now with a number in injuries. He could be an adequate back but nothing too outstanding at this point.
Everyone was saying AP was done when he injuried his knee, but he came back strong ...
That was more than five years ago though. Peterson hasn't been dominant ever since and even at 100% doesn't fit the Packers' scheme.
don't think the shotgun thing is that big of a deal. he led the league in rushing the season before last with 1485 yards.
Once again, Peterson led the league in rushing yards in 2015 based on volume only as he ranked 12th in yards per carry that season. In addition there's no doubt he struggles running with the quarterback in the shotgun and the Packers shouldn't adapt their offensive scheme to accomodate a 32-year old running back.
He averaged 4.5 yards a carry which is a very respectable number for a staring rb.
I agree that it's a respectable number but not a dominant performance like Peterson averaging six yards a carry in 2012.
I'm just saying if TT doesn't get one in the draft peterson isn't a bad fall back option to pair with Montgomery and Michaels.
I think the young teddy bridgewater, and his crap wrs should figure into Peterson's 4.5 ypc... he was a one man show that year.He averaged 4.5 yards a carry which is a very respectable number for a staring rb. Montgomery averaged 5.9 but that was 77 carries compared to 327. For comparison in 2016 only 9 of the top 25 rushers averaged more than 4.5 a carry and 1 of them had only 131 carries, the rest basically had at least 200.
