Vikings' Adrian Peterson can make NFL history in season's final weeks

MINNEAPOLIS -- With three weeks to go in the 2015 NFL season, Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson is still atop the NFL's rushing leaderboard, with a 37-yard advantage over Tampa Bay's Doug Martin. The race is probably going to come down to those two resurgent backs, with no other runner currently over 1,000 yards, and if Peterson enjoys a productive final three weeks, he'll have completed his return season with his third rushing title.
