MVP: (KEVIN DURANT-Thunder) - Has been sensational this season and more importantly, the most consistent player in the league. Considering that his team has been without star guard Russell Westbrook and with the free agent departure of sharpshooter Kevin Martin, hes had to carry the majority of the load to not only keep his team afloat but more importantly, at an elite level. Babe Herman Dodgers Jersey . But by the time the game started, the Toronto Raptors forward felt even worse. And, for three quarters, it showed as Gay shot a woeful three-for-13 from the field. http://www.dodgerssale.com/dodgers-a-j-pollock-jersey/ . -- Adam Snyder returned to the San Francisco 49ers this season because the offensive lineman thought it was his best opportunity to win a championship. Kenta Maeda Jersey . In the lead up - which seemed to begin the moment Mike Geiger blew the whistle in Houston last Thursday night - the Impact rumour mill went into overdrive. The speculation went into meltdown mode, of the golden nugget variety. Justin Turner Jersey . -- Catcher Brett Hayes has agreed to a $630,000, one-year contract with the Kansas City Royals, avoiding salary arbitration. NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Adrian Peterson can hardly sleep, so eager for the Minnesota Vikings to finally open the season after their playoff loss last January.Ive been wired up, and Ill be ready to roll Sunday, Peterson said.Yes, the Vikings may not have been saying who their starting quarterback would be Sunday in Nashville against the Tennessee Titans. With the defending NFL rushing leader healthy and available, everyone knows exactly who the Vikings will run their offense through.If we didnt have a guy like him, that would make this thing a lot harder than what it is, Minnesota coach Mike Zimmer said of the NFLs 2012 MVP.Zimmer said hed be sugar-coating it by calling the loss of Teddy Bridgewater to a dislocated knee and torn ACL on Aug. 30 as anything but a big blow. The Vikings, who went 11-5 winning the 3-13 last season to wind up with the No. 1 draft pick that was traded away for more selections, Tennessee has 22 new players .The Titans also are starting the season at home for the first time since 2012 -- two head coaches ago -- with Mike Mularkey now the third after being given the job for good in January.Linebacker Brian Orakpo said its time to show fans what the Titans can do with all the changes.Theyve been waiting all offseason for the opportunity to see the new-look Titans, and we cannot disappoint, Orakpo said.Here are some things to watch as the Vikings open against the Titans:RUN RUN RUN: Peterson led the NFL in rushing last season, and the Titans now have the running back who held that title for 2014. Tennessee believes DeMarco Murray, who was with Peterson for one season at Oklahoma, is poised to bounce back after an ugly season in Philadelphia. Whenever Murray needs a break, Heisman Trophy winner Derrick Henry will be ready to come in.ON THE TAKE: With all 11 starters back from a unit that surrendered an average of 19.3 points per game last season, fifth fewest in the league, the Vikings have the potential to field one of the NFLs best defenses. That means producing more takeaways after causing 22 last year, 18th in tthe league.ddddddddddddhered be no better week to get going toward that goal than this, against a Tennessee team that matched Dallas for the most turnovers in the NFL last season with 33. Weve been saying that we wanted more turnovers, more turnovers, so this is the year for us to take that next step, Vikings cornerback Captain Munnerlyn said, adding: Were just going to stay within the scheme, try to get better and try to do what we can do. Just go out there and dominate and ball out.PROTECT THAT BALL: For all the great stats Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota put up as a rookie, hes spent lots of time this offseason trying to cut down one big number: six lost fumbles. Its going to be a test this week, Mariota said. I think those guys up front for that defense do a good job of swiping up the ball and stuff. Its going to be a real test this week. Its just something that hopefully Ive kind of corrected and Ill take care of it.HES MY IDOL: Dick LeBeau, going into his 58th NFL season, is Tennessees defensive coordinator this season, and Zimmer is a big fan. Hes an unbelievable coach, Zimmer said of LeBeau. He has done it for a long time. Hes in the Hall of Fame, which is a great, great honor. He loves football, he loves coaching and he always has his guys prepared.Zimmer went against LeBeau while Cincinnatis defensive coordinator between 2008 and 2013, with LeBeau in the same job for Pittsburgh.STARTING OFF: The Titans have won three straight season openers, tied for the fourth-longest streak in the NFL. All three of those came on the road, and Tennessee went a combined 9-36 after those opening victories. The last time they opened a season at home in 2012, the Titans lost 34-13 to New England.---AP Pro Football Writer Dave Campbell contributed to this report.---Online:AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and AP NFL Twitter feed: https://twitter.com/AP-NFL---Follow Teresa M.
