Adrian Peterson has been outstanding as usual for the Vikings this season.  He has carried the ball 163 times for 784 yards (4.8 ypc) with 9 TD runs so far this season.  He has also caught 19 passes for 189 yards (9.9 avg) this year.  With the Vikings now with a good passing attack opposing defenses can’t gang up on Peterson or Brett Favre will make them pay the price.  That will help keep Adrian Peterson healthy and effective all season long and the Vikings will benefit big time from that.
