The Detroit Lions played great last week, but couldn't keep it going for the entire game. In week two, the Minnesota Vikings just dominated from the start and the Lions really had no answer for Adrian Peterson whatsoever.

"He's going to make you tackle him every play and he'll go 100 yards every time if you don't tackle him. He's running to score every single time."
