EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. -- We spent some time last night looking atAdrian Peterson's shifting role in the Minnesota Vikings' offense, which will require the running back to take fewer handoffs from a quarterback under center. After reviewing film of Peterson's carries on Tuesday, I thought it was worth diving back into the issue to make a couple more points.

Of Peterson's 10 carries on Monday night, six came with Teddy Bridgewater under center.
