NFL defenses accustomed to loading the box with eight defenders against running back Adrian Peterson have a dilemma against the New Orleans Saints in 2017.

Opponents can continue to key on Peterson, but doing so only opens the door for one of the league's top passing attacks led by quarterback Drew Brees.

And as defenses will soon discover, it's an ideal pick-your-poison situation for Peterson, who clearly did his homework before deciding to sign a two-year deal with the Saints.

"Oh, man, that was something that was intriguing to me," Peterson said Tuesday in a teleconference. "Just being in the backfield with Drew Brees and a great offensive line that finished ranked No. 2 overall as a group and No. 3 in some polls and No. 2, as well as No. 2 in scoring....

He beat his kids and paid the price. Time to go back to work full-time and get hit a lot harder.

This is a solid pick up for the value. Considering previous FA signings from Loomis this one has good risk vs reward aspects that can't be denied.

As for those people thinking a RB with our first pick would make sense I have to believe that where you are posting from they've made recreational marijuana legal, or you have a medical card!

I for one wouldn't mind seeing those 2 1sr rounds turn into a higher pick for someone much higher in the pass rush ability department. Total pipe dream on my part would be to hope Browns are really stupid (good historical background for this assumption) and give us their 1st for our two picks.

DBs are plentiful and I think with what we've got a little further back talent could be developed into a good contributor with a chip on his shoulder. It's funny how people on boards are slamming our def from last year but never accounting for the fact that we basically lost our starting lineup in the secondary by game 2.

AP, hope he contributes and is a model player for the team and community. I'd like to see him and Ingram running out of the backfield at the same time. That's a dual threat that could baffle a Def Coord and really mess with coverages that allow the WRs to shred secondaries. Let alone the middle would open up and if Fleener can get it together that open seam down the middle will be able to gut defenses.

Just my 2 Lincolns.
Looking forward to the draft regardless.

I don't understand, why are kids allowed to be beat, but any other human that is hit in any fashion is considered assaulted? Why are children the only ones we feel it okay to hit? I don't hit my dog....this seems absolutely silly to me.

Kids are growing up with a different sense of entitlement and lack of respect, I am in education and I see it. It is not because they are beat less, it is because they are placated and never have to learn to deal with adversity. Teach your child that things are not going to go their way sometimes and how to handle that. Doesn't require beating them at all. Just requires you to be strong and not give in. Nothing is harder than watching your child cry and feeling like you hurt their feelings, but there is no greater gift you can give them. Doesn't require beating them. Beatings come when you haven't taught your child correctly from the time they were small and now you can't handle the monster you created so you must go off the deep end and beat them. sick!

Not frequently, but I teach special education and have been kicked, bit punched in the face, slapped. I have had my skin broke from scratching and biting. That child has a disability, but at the same time she never learned how to deal with not getting her way so she becomes so enraged that she physically strikes people. Do me favor Mike, and I respect you a lot, please don't pretend I do not know what kids are doing. Hitting them is not the answer. I don't understand how hitting your child teaches them anything other than violence and when someone does something you don't like you smack the **** out of them. Teach your children to deal with adversity and you won't need to beat them.

A whipping is not a beating. Adrian Peterson might have gone overboard in that particular instance, but whipping, itself, is not a beating. You don't spank a child because they became monsters. Whoever said anything about monster children? You keep your kids from BECOMING monsters by disciplining them. Counting to three, putting kids in "timeout" or wagging your finger and saying "shame, shame" accomplishes nothing. You have to drive the point home early and often with kids so that by the time they are preteens, they have learned that you don't get your way by disrespecting people.

Nowadays, kids are told they are delicate little snowflakes, well into their teens, and you can't do anything without them crying foul.

It depends on the kid. I have a 9 year old almost 10 and I have yet to have put a hand on him. If you teach your kids right and wrong and take the time to talk to them it goes a lot better I find. Spankings are usually for parents who can't control there frustrations and anger and need to take it out on something or someone and that is usually the kid.

Not saying that there is a kid out there that could use some tough love like that but you have to be careful.

I also feel we put these NFL players on such a high pedestal and expect them to be perfect in every way and that is just wrong. You are entittled to make mistakes and you entittled to learn from them. Holding something that is and can be corrected and learned behavior to stop someone from earning a living is wrong as well.
