Postgame Recaps, Storylines, and News

The Vikings won both games Adrian Peterson missed with a knee injury, but Minnesota looked like a playoff team with him back on the field on Sunday.

Peterson rushed for 116 yards and two touchdowns during an impressive win over the Lions. Tarvaris Jackson went 18-of-24 for 204 yards and two touchdowns.

After starting the season 6-2, the Lions have lost four straight.

Though they did well against Adrian Peterson the first time they faced him, the Lions probably won't be happy to see the star rookie back on the field Sunday as they try to win in the Metrodome for the first time in a decade.
