Week 9
Adrian Peterson Min - RB
2007 vs. San Diego
296 rushing yards, 19 receiving yards, 3 TDs
In a career filled with highlight reel runs and standout performances, AP’s finest moment came just nine weeks into his rookie campaign.
In fact, the 296 rushing yards he pinned on the Chargers defense in Week 9 of ’07 still holds as the best single-game rushing performance in NFL history, besting a 295-yard outburst by Jamal Lewis in ’03. While AP is the titleholder of the best rushing day, it is his only appearance on the list of the top 30 single-game rushing efforts since 1970.
