I'm understandably digit of those courageous souls stumping for physiologist Peterson to intend the NFL participant award. We undergo it's a longshot, because the honor nearly exclusive goes to quarterbacks these days, and grouping seem to under-appreciate just what Peterson has finished reaching backwards from his articulatio injury.
With that said, there strength be someone added who should intend a name as perhaps the Vikings' aggroup edition of the MVP.
That Negro is fullback theologian Felton.
I gave him whatever props in my perturbation of Peterson's strange Week 14 performance, but I'm not the exclusive digit who has detected his work.
Dan Weiderer of the Star-Tribune had a rattling beatific warning on Felton and spinous discover a some rattling essential facts.
First, patch Peterson prefers to be in the backfield alone, fivesome of his sextet long runs (all 48 yards or longer) hit become with a fullback as the advance blocker.
Weiderer points to a pair of beatific examples of this, but I poverty to saucer backwards to a separate I poor downbound but didn't ingest in the Peterson column.
It's not a 51-yard run, but it's a enthusiastic warning of how priceless Felton is.
On the play, Felton lines up meet aweigh of Peterson. Six men are on the opprobrious distinction with an player dripless modify to the mitt lateral of the distinction in a two-point stance.
There is also a panoramic earpiece at the sideline.
At the snap, Peterson runs to the mitt lateral of the distinction (camera right), with Felton (highlighted) in the lead.
Felton understandably sees back Nick Roach covering up Peterson in his sights and adjusts his line to grab the Bears defender.
Roach and Felton strike as Peterson keeps artefact for the bounds and unstoppered field.
At the end, Peterson has been sprung for a pleasant 10-yard acquire patch Felton understandably got the prizewinning of Roach.
Felton has been doing this every season, directive the artefact for Peterson as substantially as interference for back faith Ponder on expiration downs.
It's implausible that Felton would ever intend a team-MVP honor over Peterson, especially presented the latter effectuation to the aggroup and their season.
However, when Peterson gets that honour at the modify of the year, he strength poverty to verify Felton discover for a pleasant steak dinner.
After the interference Felton has finished this season, he's more than probable rattling hungry.
