Norv Turner: Peterson “makes a total difference” to offense

The Vikings got a chance to see running back Adrian Peterson on the practice field this week for the first time since last September and they liked what they saw.

As mentioned on Thursday, offensive coordinator Norv Turner said that Peterson was in great shape and looked like he “hasn’t missed a day” despite his long layoff. With that out of the way, attention will now shift to how Turner and the Vikings Offense will look with Peterson back in the lineup. While Turner notes that he likes the way the Vikings closed out 2014 on offense, he also knows Peterson’s return will have a major impact.
