Vikings, Broncos return to familiar offense

The Minnesota Vikings are running the ball better with Adrian Peterson and the Denver Broncos are passing more with Peyton Manning out from under center. Plus, other storylines to watch Sunday afternoon in Denver.

Their offensive coaches spent September making alterations to appease their stars.

Adrian Peterson is running out of the I formation again — and looks like Adrian Peterson again. Stiff-arming linebackers. Racing past safeties. Celebrating in the end zone.

Peyton Manning isn’t lining up under center so much — and he looks once again like Peyton Manning. Avoiding sacks.
