isn't playing for a team that gives him a chance to retire with a Super Bowl ring, but he's going to get the next best thing: an opportunity to prove he's still capable of serving as a starting running back at the age of 32. With both quarterback and star running back out with injuries, :Feed Peterson.At least, that's what one coach is hoping for."Feed the beast," offensive coordinator Harold Goodwin said, per the team's website. Mike Person Jersey "It's like an old stove. The more wood you put in it, the hotter it gets. We've just got to make sure we feed him the ball so he can get comfortable."Peterson is obviously on board. "I'm all about that," Peterson said.There's no doubt that Peterson has an enticing matchup against the 49ers and their 29th-ranked run defense by yards allowed per game, but expecting Peterson to suddenly become the running back he used to be Dante Pettis Jersey is expecting the impo sible. Over Peterson's last nine games -- dating back to K'Waun Williams Jersey the beginning of last season -- he's averaged 3.05 yards per carry and 34 yards per game, and those averages are inflated by his recent 134-yard outing against the , which gave some people hope that there's still something left in his tank. Here's where it's also nece sary to point out that he's yet to top 40 yards in a game since the end of the 2015 season (besides that Tampa Bay game, of course).But Peterson is going to get the chance to prove his doubters wrong over Colin Kaepernick Jersey the remainder of the season. Johnson, is , according to coach Bruce Arians. Arians said right now he doubts RBs TJ Logan and David Johnson will be able to return this season. And Palmer injury 8-to-10 weeks. Darren Urban (@Cardschatter) Johnson's injury is tragic for the , but Peterson will benefit from his absence. If the Cardinals feed him -- which let's face it, they probably will given is their quarterback -- and if Peterson makes the most of his opportunity, maybe he can snag Kwon Alexander Jersey a starting job leading into next year. That's one huge if, but Peterson should just be thankful he's getting the chance. Not too long ago, Peterson was buried behind Mark Ingram and Alvin Kamara on the Saints' depth chart. Now, he's the unquestioned starter in an offense lacking a pa sing game.
