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.
"It's not like when a play breaks down, he's looking to scramble. He's looking to keep the play going by passing it with a pass downfield. He does an excellent job there because that puts continued pressure on the defense."
"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."
"He's definitely a force to be reckoned with. I believe the 49ers had a great game plan against him and was able to contain him. But you can only contain Adrian Peterson so long before he gets the rust off."
The Detroit Lions had a week one victory in their grasp, but somehow let it just escape them and in a huge way. The Minnesota Vikings may not have had a great season last year, but they're ready for the 2015 season and the biggest difference is...Adrian Peterson is back.
