NEW YORK (AP) - Comments on the Minnesota Vikings by the AP Pro32 panel (ranking in parentheses): --- MINNESOTA VIKINGS (14) Chris Berman (ESPN, 15) - 293 yards for Adrian Peterson to reach Eric Dickerson. Clifton Brown (Sporting News, 13) - Adrian Peterson makes even elite athletes look overmatched. Cris Collinsworth (NBC Sports, 11) Rich Gannon (CBS Sports/SiriusXM NFL Radio, 15) - All I can say is thank goodness for Adrian Peterson or they'd be in huge trouble. Bob Glauber (Newsday, 10) - Another in a series of transcendent performances from Adrian Peterson, who is rewriting the rules of medical science. Not even a year removed from knee surgery, and he might set the all-time rushing record. Just an unbelievable comeback. Rick Gosselin (Dallas Morning News, 14) - Adrian Peterson needs to average 147 yards in his last two games to break Eric Dickerson's NFL single-season rushing record. Peterson averaged 129.4 yards through the season's first 14 games. Clark Judge (CBSSports.com, 13) - Seldom have I seen one guy carry a team, but seldom have I seen anyone do what Adrian Peterson is now. Ira Kaufman (Tampa Tribune, 13) - Adrian Peterson is carrying an entire organization on his shoulder pads. Pat Kirwan (SiriusXM NFL Radio/CBSSports.com, 15) - Who would have thought in 2012 a single man could run his team into the playoffs? There's a chance with Adrian Peterson carrying the ball. John Lynch (Fox Sports, 14) - AP continues to amaze! Alex Marvez (Foxsports.com, 11) - Eric Dickerson should be worried. Dan Pompei (Chicago Tribune, 13) - Is it possible that the Vikings will not make the playoffs but Adrian Peterson will? --- Online: http://pro32.ap.org/poll and http://twitter.com/AP-NFL
