Steelers is not fantasiziing about Adrian Peterson

"I think they'll be angry defense, but as far as our tream coming in, we have our goals," he said. "We're not going to let anybody come in between that and stop that. We're coming in focused on doing our jobs and coming up with a big win."

The Ravens fooeball jerseys defense allowed a 100-yard rusher for the first time in 40 games last week when Cincinnati's Cedric Benson rushed for 120. Peterson said the Vikings expect to see an agrry Ravens defense on Sunday.

"I have so much respect for Ray, but it's the game of football. I don't discriminate against no one," Peterson said. "I'm sure if he gets the opportunity he's going to try and lay the wood to me. Guarantee you that."

Peterson likes to lower his shoulder and deliver punishment to defenders and he said he won't hesitate to do the same to the hard-hitting Lewis.

"He's a player that I look up to," Peterson said at his weekly press conference. "I love the way he plays the game. He's one of the few guys that I talk about when I speak on Brett and how they play the game. With so much passion and love for the game."

Adrian Peterson jerseys got a chance to meet and spend some time with Ravens linebacker Ray Lewis at the Pro Bowl last winter. Peterson has talked a lot about how much he admires the way certain guys play and Lewis is at the top of that list along with his quarterback, Brett Favre.

AD excited to face Ray Lewis

Peterson had his first 100-yard game since the season opener against Cleveland, getting 143 rushing yards on 22 carries and adding four catches for 23 yards in the Vikings' 33-31 victory Sunday over Baltimore.

"The guy came off and just made a great play," Peterson said. "My ankle got caught under him some type of way, and I just twisted my ankle up a little bit." Peterson indicated it wasn't a big concern. "I was in some pain," he said. "It wasn't broke or anything. Right now it's feeling real good, actually."

Adrian Peterson says Ankle is fine.

Adrian Peterson leads the NFL in rushing with 624 yards. Chris Johnson of Tennessee has 596.

Flipping through cable channels Monday night, I caught an interview show called Vizio Pro Files featuring Peterson. At one point during the interview, his dad, Nelson Peterson, was crying. Then I was crying. It was a mess. Adrian didn't cry on camera, but he claimed that he has shed tears about the tragic loss of two brothers. Never trust a man who can't cry or doesn't appreciate the brain and heart of Jada Pinkett Smith.

"And Jada's not bad, either," Peterson added with a laugh.

Jacobs and Peterson shared their fondness for "Fresh Prince of Bel Air," one of Smith's early signature works.

I can see a similarity. Both Smith and Peterson seem quite comfortable with their celebrity, unlike a certain dorky fashion designer.

The woman behind theadventuresofmelindajacobs. com asked Peterson whom he'd like to be if he could be anybody else for a day. After some thought, about 2 minutes and 6 seconds into the video, the adorable Peterson told Melinda Jacobs: "Maybe Will Smith."

The woman who captivates new Adrian Peterson jerseys's heart must be as smart as she is attractive.

To beat the unbeaten Minnesota Vikings (6-0) on Sunday, the new Steelers jerseys (4-2) understand their top priority must be finding a way to slow down Adrian Peterson, something no opposing game plan or defensive scheme has accomplished this season.

PITTSBURGH - They've met with their coaches, watched tape, talked among themselves. The Pittsburgh Steelers still aren't certain how they're going to do it.

Mike Tomlin on Adrian Peterson, ""He’s got a great deal of God-given ability. He is big, strong and fast. He also has things that you can’t measure," Tomlin said. "The tape says he’s ridiculously competitive. He doesn’t turn down challenges, he does a lot of things well even when the ball isn’t in his hands, he’s an aggressive and functional blitz pick-up man.""
