10 mind-blowing stats for Week 15 in the NFL

That is the article that this is from:

Validating Peterson's value

Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson averages more yards per rushing attempt (6.04) than Christian Ponder averages per pass attempt (5.99). This phenomenon has only happened five times since the AFL-NFL merger in 1970, and only twice when the team's leading player in yards per rushing attempt was a running back (Washington Redskins' Reggie Brooks in 1993, Buffalo Bills' O.J. Simpson in 1973).

Peterson has more rushing yards in the last seven games (1,101) than the Jacksonville Jaguars (1,068), Oakland Raiders (1,055), Dallas Cowboys (1,038) and Arizona Cardinals (1,021) have as a team this season. It should also be noted that this is the second time the Jaguars have appeared in the "10 mind-blowing stats" list for a reason they would probably rather not.
