In just his eighth NFL game, future HOF running back Adrian Peterson set the record for most rushing yards in a single game with 296. Remarkably, Peterson went into halftime with a pedestrian 43 yards on 13 carries (3.3 ypc). But in the second half, he carried 17 times for 253 yards (14.88 ypc), a yardage total that would tie for ninth all time in a single game.
