Vikings Coach Brad Childress - and the Late Michael Jeter, who played the assistant football coach on Evening Shade.
Which brings me to the observation that Adrian Peterson's current season can be compared to one season in history that I'm aware of. That is OJ's '73 season when O.J. gained 2003 yards and averaged 6.0 yards per carry despite a rookie QB that threw for four TDs all year. Vikings QB Tarvaris Jackson is currently on pace to throw four TDs, as well. The Bills finished 9-5 that year but missed the playoffs, because there was only one wild card back then. (I thought Eric Dickerson might fall into the same categorey as Peterson and Jackson, as he has some pretty mediorcre starting quaterbacks like Dieter Brock and Jeff Kemp, but they both achieved over double-digit TD totals, so they were somewhat of a threat.)
That's it for now.

Nice work on the photos! It made my day to tune in and see those pics.
I never watched Evening Shade, but I can certainly see the resemblance.
Good work...
DDDDDDDD
My God, they look exactly alike.
Just as note, Jeter also played Mr. Noodle on Sesame Street.
Cheers.
