Vikings: Teddy Bridgewater's progress won't alter offense goals

Quarterback Teddy Bridgewater's improved accuracy and escalating production the past two games finally squared the Vikings' offense. However, it still pivots off Adrian Peterson and the running attack, coach Mike Zimmer said Monday.

"I don't particularly see us as a team that's going to be throwing the ball every play," he said. "That's just not who we are right now. But I think you can see when we're effective throwing the football how much better we can be offensively."

Bridgewater had his finest day as a pro in Sunday's 38-17 victory over Chicago, completing 17 of 20 passes for 231 yards and four touchdowns.
