Peterson goes over 200

Fifth time in his career

With one more 200-yard game, Adrian Peterson will tie O.J. Simpson's all-time record.

Adrian Peterson went over 10,000 yards on Sunday, the 3rd-fastest in NFL history to reach that milestone. Eric Dickerson did it in 91 games, and Jim Brown needed 98. Peterson reached it in his 101st game.

Peterson also went over 200 yards for the fifth time in his career. That’s just one short of the record, held by O.J. Simpson. You get the feeling that’s a record Peterson will own.
