I think it's time for the Vikings to finally part ways with AP. Excuses aside, his production has clearly fallen off significantly from his 2012 MVP season. I'm also tired of how he's never been able to develop any aspects of his game aside from being a pure rusher - being weak in both pass protection, receiving, and being fairly useless rushing out of the shotgun formation when asked too. As great of a rusher as he was in his prime (among the GOAT in pure rushing), the one trick pony stuff is getting old, and with the decline in his abilities, doesn't make up for him being so one-dimensional anymore.
Without getting into the details much, the other bs drama surrounding him the past few years is getting old - The child abuse scandal, trying to whine his way out of MN to Dallas, never owning up to his mistakes and constantly making excuses for his poor life choices. To top it all off, now he's already openly talking about places he'd "be interested in playing" other than Minnesota next season - Vikings' Adrian Peterson says he can play five more NFL seasons
An era is over in Vikings football. He has become a complete disgrace to the franchise. I say they just cut him instead of trying to negotiate him into a reasonable new contract. Let him ride that birthday party camel of his (anyone else remember that stupid story about him yucking it up during his suspension year when he should have been trying his best to keep a classy profile?) all the way out of MN to whatever desperate team is willing to put up with his bs on top of his declining play.
