Why do the Vikes never throw to Adrian Peterson? (1 Viewer)

It seems they are not creative at all in how they get him the ball, and really under use him, considering his talent level. Is Gerart really that much better at pas sblocking? I would think you don't take your best player off the field on third down...

Because their fantasy league isn't PPR.

I'm not askng from a fantasy perspective, but an NFL one. A lot of teams, try to get their rb the ball in space through screen passes, etc. It keeps the defenses honest, helps respond to blitzes, etc. I'm curious why the vikes don't do this, s it seems it would be effective.

This.Hey we have the most dynamic runner in the league. Let's just smash him into the middle of the line every time and never get him the ball in space!
