Luckily we haven't needed him but if Peterson were to get injured you have to have a quality backup. I don't know for sure if Gerhart is a quality NFL back based on the number of carries he's had. I suspect he would do a pretty darn good job.
Unfortunately, Chester Taylor was on his last legs. After we lost him we had no one behind AD.
What is amazing is how many yards Peterson gets behind a very average line. Put Gerhart behind a good line and he's a great back. All starts up front.
