I don’t think Adrian Peterson will ever have a game as bad as this one he had against the 49ers, stats wise at least. Adrian had 14 rushes for a total of 3 yards and a 0.2 yards per rush average. His longest run was 4 yards. The Niners were determined not to let Adrian beat them. You would think that game plan could beat the Vikes who showed little else offense wise other than Adrian the first half of the season. But Tavaris Jackson is starting to show he does have some game and the Vikings finished off San Francisco in an easy one 27 - 7.

The Vikings take on the Bears Monday night at the Metrodome and I think Adrian will be ready to rebound from this one. It will be interesting to see if the Bears take the same approach as t he Niners did. The Vikings beat the Bears in Chicago earlier this season in a fun one, 34 - 30. Adrian rushed for 224 yards and 3 touchdowns in that game plus a 9 yard reception.
