Patrick Peterson to the Vikings

[Phunnypharm]

@CuriousHusker

If we were going to be zone heavy I could see it. He’s not the solution if we still want to be press heavy. He’s a different player then he was three years ago.

I was watching a video that @Sofatso posted about Zeke Elliott and RBs in another thread… but heard a bit that made me think of this convo….

.

They mention some pretty awful PFF numbers for Patrick Peterson… and I thought of this discussion with @ @CuriousHusker & @Cynodon ……

and I also remebered the Lions vs. Vikings game this year.

.
Here is a thread I started after the 1st game….

Pat Peterson not flagged a single time

There have been a few posts about Peterson getting away with illegal contact or PI in the game Sunday… But I wanted to make a separate theead to illustrate how the Lions were flagged 6 times on AO alone… yet Peterson didn’t draw 1 flag despite very handsy coverage. Here is the first play I will highlight… because it was a 3rd and 2 to go at the 22 yard line… and a penalty called here could have changed 3 points into 7 points. . [image] . obvious illegal contact from the 15-yard line dow…

and another discussion…

*** Lions vs Vikings Official Game Day thread *** 9/25/2022

also remember Pat Peterson getting away with another illegal contact… even though Lions have been called all game long….

.

one more….

ASB out

I was worried it might be a high ankle sprain… and of course it was Pat Peterson dragging him down and falling on the back of ASB’s legs like a horse collar tackle. I was already ticked that Pat was getting away with penalties… now I just flat out don’t like him.
