Peterson is an awesome cornerback (maybe the best DB in the country), but I think some fans have to understand that it doesn't mean that he will never give up any catches. The offense is at a tremendous advantage. A good throw and a good route will beat good coverage most times, even on the great ones.

He's gonna give up some catches...even some touchdowns. But if they keep throwing his way, eventually somebody is gonna do something less than perfect (or maybe PP will simply diagnose and jump the route), and he will make them pay.
