Adrian Peterson Arrested

I know this is semi-old news now, but here is the thing.. why are people surprised that it took 3 officers to bring him down? Are we supposed to be shocked by this?

1. They are in Houston and the officer allegedly "jumped on his back." We all know that Texans have trouble tackling AND jumping on a guy's back is the worst way to bring him down. You have to attack his ankles or hit him in the waist if you're coming in from behind. Bad form.





2. And most importantly, have you ever seen anybody try to tackle AD? One guy isn't going to get the job done.. defenses know they need to gang-tackle this horse. I'm a little surprised it only took 3 Houston PD to bring him down; he probably went down willingly at that point to save some gas for the 4th quarter (or jail cell) where he'd really need the energy.
