If you know an Adrian Peterson owner, now's the time to hit him up for money/beer

Chester Taylor's hip injury has Peterson owners dancing in the streets, and rightfully so. The league's most talented rookie will carry the load for the Vikes until Taylor returns, whenever that is (could be later in the game for all we know). Peterson's a top-12 RB until Taylor comes back.

Even if Taylor comes back next week, I can't see how the Vikings would not give Peterson the bulk of the carries. He averaged over 5 yards a carry today and added a 60 yard touchdown reception...pretty solid stuff for a rookies first game.

Hits and Misses - Week 11: Turner the Burner ready to blaze!:
- Brandon: Couldn't Anquan Boldin and Larry Fitzgerald have shared a little bit of the love with Steve Breaston?
Ask the Geeks - Week 11:
- Brandon: Yeah it was amazing how bad of a game Breaston had considering the insane yardage that Boldin and Fitzgerald racked up!
- Shirley: Most definitely, Brandon! I also had some people telling me to start Muhammad over Moore too. Breaston was a disappointment for me but my other players picked up the slack. Also I'm glad that I didn't give into temptation and started Thigpen over Romo :)
- Brandon: Not a bad game for Lance Moore huh?
- Shirley: Thanks, Brandon! Everyone's been telling me to start Bradley over Moore. I just needed someone to side with my gut that's telling me to start Moore.
Why Joseph Addai, not Adrian Peterson, should be #2 on your cheat sheet:
- Matt: Finally we see what Addai's capable of. It was a long time coming, but I have a feeling he's going to make me look at least somewhat less stupid on this one before it's all said and done.
The Wire: Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 11, 2008:
- Shirley: I picked up Mark Bradley but am wondering whether I should start him over Lance Moore? I'm starting Tyler Thigpen so I'm already going to get some points any Thigpen-Bradley connection.
