Not the Adrian Peterson on the Vikings but the one on Chicago Bears. Do you think he's going to do good? Cedric Benson has sucked so far into the season and I'm glad he's out. Do you think Peterson is going to be able to do what Benson couldn't? Also, What do you think about Garret Wolfe being the 2nd backup running back? Do you think he's going to have tough time running against NFL teams considering his size?

That Adrian Peterson is a career backup who has bounced around the league. I doubt he will do anything either.

Yes Peterson is one of the Hardest working players on the Bears team. Every opportunity he's had he put up positive yards. He's quick and has alot better vision then Benson (he's fragile!) And can take a hit and use it to motivate himself. He might even get 100 yards against the Giants if the Bears don't get behind and Trainwrecks coughs up the football.

AP, no dubt, figuring he couldnt be any worse than Benson! As far as wolfe, he has great speed and with his size, he will be able to do alot of hiding if you wil to get away from would be tacklers. The just need a QB worth a damn.

No he is a smaller back than Ced and his style of running does not fit the bears o line. He can however be used to catch the ball on short yardage downs and goaline situations as a decoy. The bears should have never traded Thomas.

things like this usually depend on the coach. the vikings coach trusted adrian over chester taylor and it payed off. i think that if the bears coach will give adrian almost all the carries- it will pay off and the NFL will have 2 stars named adrian peterson.
as to garrett wolfe, since his speed is over lightening speed, size probably wont b the difference. ask maurice jones-drew if u dont believe me.

I don't think he'll do that good. He was a third stringer most of his short career. Not that Benson is out, AP will have to try to run, but CHI will be getting outscored and have to go back to the pass.

He will have the same issue Benson had. No team is in any way afraid of the Bear's passing attack... Defenses will continue to run blitz and stack up on 1st down and shut him down as well...
Bears, please seek a reliable option at QB.

Usually, when a running game has sucked continuously for so many games, it is the result of a bad offensive line.
