Seems legit

I was listening to “The Sports Coma with Big Q & The Guys” and the guys were commenting about Adrian Peterson and how they thought that “AP isn’t coming here to back up anybody.” That comment got me thinking of what’s pushing AP — a 1st ballot Hall of Fame running back — to return from the latest batch of injuries yet again.

Whodat

Does who starts really even matter?

We gonna feed the hot hand. Whoever is more efficient will get the carries. Who is in for the first snap shouldnt matter to those guys.

Whoever has the hot hand will lead for the game.

If Ingram starts a drive 5/30 and Peterson starts a drive 5/20, better keep running Ingram.

Im more concerned about how many touches he will get compared to the other RB's we have. The kid from Tennessee looks like a solid RB that deserve touches too.... and of course Mark Ingram....

AP is going to dominate some drives and Ingram will throw hissy fits on the sideline. Water is wet.

I'll go with the Minnesota FO pushing him out the door

And until CSP names him the #1 RB he's the #2 RB.

Anonymous Saints player's description of Peterson - "Beast" ; "Ingram's good, but AP's on another level".

Is no one gonna address that the 3 reasons in that article were utterly ridiculous?

AP will start because he almost has the record in 3 major categories?

The saints are going to choose their starting RB based on how near they are to a career milestone?

I'm not saying AD won't start, I'm just saying that the reasoning in that article is laughable.

Also agree with the hot hand argument and I think Kamara is a beast. To settle the comparisons, he's not like Pierre or Reggie, he's a little of both. Fast and quick with good hands like Reggie but surprisingly strong like Pierre.
