Adrian Peterson's Injury

Just saw the replay, it was straight nasty. I hate to say it but injuries like that look the career ending types.

Probably a torn ligament or 2. Shouldn't be career ending.

Ugly stuff. Said they lost Ponder to a concussion as well.

Bears' Johnny Knox had an ugly back injury last week.

Blow to the side of the knee. Bent it sideways pretty good.

Reports are that it's a torn ACL and MCL.

Feel bad for the guy and hope for him to have a speedy recovery. Nothing close to a Vikings fan, but you have to appreciate how he plays the game.

Stuff like this is why I have no problem with running backs holding out for good contracts. God speed on the recovery.

I bet the Vikings are glad they gave him a contract.

I'm sure they are. Regardless of getting hurt, he's still the best RB in the league
