Who won this matchup? 🤔

[@JacksonSimons-e5c]

AP

[@SPAR888]

Ad by a mile although ray had some nice tackles

[@michaelhession2105]

Early in the game, AP had his way with us, but as the game wore on, Ray started to make his presence felt. The only reason why the Vikings won this game was because Stephen Hauschka missed a game-winner at the buzzer. The period between Stover and Tucker, when it came to Raven kickers, was very hit-or-miss. Hauschka and Cundiff were both reliable and were prone to blow it at the same time. You never knew how it would go.

[@tyblack7441]

Ray Lewis won it at the goal line, but AP had some other plays where he ran wild. Call it a tie

[@LuisMercadoorg]

@@tyblack7441how that was a tie. And ran over 100 against an entire HoF defense. Lewis wasn’t alone, AP was alone.

Prime AP is the best RB since Barry Sanders

[@rodrigosoriano7832]

Tomlinson???

[@elbowgang9715]

​@rodrigosoriano7832 I'd say this : LT has been the best overall running back this century when we talking about all skills included..but just straight running the ball? AP is the closest to Bo Jackson and Jim Brown we'll ever see

​@@LuisMercadoorglol, you guys acting like the defence doesnt have to respect Favre. These comments are silly These comments hold true for other seasons but certainly not when he had a HOF QB under center Hutchinson was legit asf. I dont remember the Vikings having terrible olines either

@@donsolos a hof QB at the end of his career throwing to whom exactly? Are we rewriting history? Are we forgetting Peterson was the HB who faced most stacked boxes in the entire 21st century?

theres no statue of AP in MN. , Ray and Unitas have staues in baltimore as you walk in the stadium. Ray single handedly was the reason we won the 2000 super bowl, without his leadership , it wasnt happening. he played defense, which is bonkers and won the superbowl mvp

[@Deuce813]

Eddie George has something to say about this “immovable object” 😭

[@WarrenG-fv4ij]

2:28. This is what set Ray Lewis apart. He was great at getting off the block and tackling the back before they could break away. This was executed perfectly. A second late and Peterson was through the gap and in the open field.

AP might be the best back of all time. Think about the level of athletes on the field, and the old school hard-nose style of football that was yet to be penalized outve existence. He accomplished all of it against guys like Ray Lewis, Ed reed, Brian Dawkins, Patrick Willis, Luke Kuechly, Urlacher, Clay Matthew’s, James Harrison, Kam Chancellor, Khalil Mack, Troy polamula, etc…I could go on for days about how tough these defenses were combined with how relaxed the rules were in comparison to todays game. The best, and hardest, of both worlds and he ended up becoming a top 10 RB of all time.

Just a very explosive runner. And a very hard runner. Now thats what you call a power back. A back who knows im going through the A gap and im going in top speed see if you can stop me. Most backs today seem to suffer from identity crises. They run through the a gap hard but then slow down to try to find another hole but by then its too late and they got stopped for a 1 yard gain. Or they look at the A gap and bounce out left and try to round the corner like an explosive back but already have the whole defence on them. AP never struggled with that. He knew im going in an im going in very hard and very fast. bruise that defence up all night. As for the shifty backs like barry sanders he also knew his identity. Im running but you cant catch me
