3. Adrian Peterson

Peterson has single-handedly carried the Vikings offense for the past seven years, helping even the most average teams to the playoffs three times.

AP has five 1,000-plus-yard seasons, a 2,000-yard season, and in his worst season he was 30 yards short of eclipsing the 1,000-yard mark. That kind of production at the running back position is uncanny in today’s NFL.
