I initially said other for Foster, but the more I think about it I wish I had gone with McCoy.
Fun Fact: AP had as many rushing fumbles in his second year alone that McCoy has total in his career.
He needs to promptly be removed from this poll then. No decent RB has ever fumbled the football, at least that's what I learned this offseason here on the Lions board...

BTW - AP (Adrian Peterson) goes by the initials AD (All Day). Not so much fun as a fact.
All Day Adrian Peterson didn't give himself that nickname. I'm pretty sure it was someone in high school that gave it to him. He doesn't like AP and I personally don't like uncreative nicknames like initials or the first letter of your first name and first few letters of your last name. The art of the nickname is gone! But to answer the question, I told people when Peterson was a freshman at Oklahoma, he was the best runner I've ever seen. I still feel that way. His combo of power and speed is unmatched. EVER!! If you dropped McCoy in Minnesota's O he'd be just another dude. If you drop Peterson in Philly or anywhere for that matter, he'll be what he is, the best in the game.

In the words of Adrian: "My dad gave me that nickname when I was young. They called me "All Day" because I had so much energy. I never stopped running. I was always doing or getting into something."
Was he running all day because his cocaine dealer of a dad gave him a little bump in his Sugar Smacks? (I hate Peterson.)

I voted for the "other guy" option just because I dislike polls with options that lead to the answer that the person or group is looking for, rather than an honest assessment... It leads to misleading statistics. That Kyle Minike guy who writes for the Lions on MLive does it pretty much every time he posts an article with a poll...
