100 yards is some magical number made up by the media cause it looks pretty when they add an extra digit. Peterson's yards per carry is far more significant. His YPC this year was 7.2, 6.5, 4.5, and then 2.2 last night. That is impressive. Last year he was under 3.5 YPC once, in a game in which New Orleans committed to stopping Peterson and make Gus Frerotte beat them which he did with 222 yards and no turnovers.

Gameplanning your ass. LOL. It was a bad gameplan then. Any way you try to spin it, the defense didnt play well and hasnt played well this season.
