If the Bills want to be ground and pound how about Adrian Peterson?

[Owen DeBoard]

If this team wants to be a ground and pound team why not go after Adrian Peterson and then you could live with an mediocre QB. I know its a pipedream and probably never happen but that would help give another year to find a better QB.

I heard a caller on WGR say this a few days ago.

The hosts shot him down, but I think it is a good idea.

I would trade a third for him.

Switch hitter?

Well, that is how Peterson was raised. It was an accepted form of punishment in his mind.

My father hit me & my brothers with a belt when we needed it just as his father did to him.

And I used to spend summers at my grandfathers, slept in the same room my father slept in as a boy.

My Grandfather never hit me, but that belt was still hanging on a hook on that bedroom door.

He will end up in Dallas, I bet.

I have no objection to his disciplining his kid.

what he did to his kid crossed the line from discipline to child abuse. Peterson apologists should look at the pictures. Pass.

Great idea. Adrian Peterson loves ground and pound so much, it's his parenting philosophy!

I wondered what your problem was...

I would not be opposed to it, but Kim Pegula might have a different view of Peterson.

Aside from the fact that he whipped a 4-year old, this is the lamest excuse ever. You're an adult with a functioning brain living in the current world. Take responsibilities for your own actions. "Well, my dad was a bigot, so I am too...", "Well, my dad beat my Mom, so I beat my wife..."

At least Peterson had the brains enough to state that he understands now that he was wrong and that the level of discipline was excessive to the point of injury.

i would hope we looked at demarco murray ahead of AP. that's not to say i think demarco murray is worth the fumbling problem, but if there is a rb to add to the arsenal, i would hope its demarco. younger, perhaps can fix the fumbling, and doesn't have this scandal around him. same is true for whoever brings up ray rice's name.

Setting aside the kid issue, big money on free agent halfbacks is a losing game IMO. Peterson's a freak, but that's too high a risk.

We all know he's gonna end up in New England.

Vereen and Ridley have their issues, fumbling, staying healthy...

All Day would be a perfect fit for their offense and it would give him a chance to win a ring, which after years of losing in Minnesota will be an attractive option.
