This is the NFL and in the NFL you can't run everyone over as Adrian as found out. I'm sorry but 1300 yards doesn't make you one of the top 3 RB's in the NFL.

Edjerrin James rushed for 1500+ yards as a rooie and didn't zoom all the way to a 95OVR. Peterson should be the top RB on this list. Tomlinson, Westbrook, Portis, Fred Taylor, Steven Jackson, and Willis Mcgahee should all have higher overall ratings than AD. I love you frat brother but don't agree on Peterson. He had two huge games but hasn't proven he can even stay healthy yet. Sorry bro but nothing is spectacular about 1300 yards. 1600 yards is what i would consider a great season for an NFL RB. That means he held an average of 100 yards per game.
You make very valid points LOL. I may have gotten a bit ahead of myself but his games against Chi and SD were legendary. 11.2 YPC and 9.9 YPC in the NFL? That's insane.
