Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson apparently looks as if he hasn’t missed a beat.

Those associated with the team had high praise for Peterson after his first week of practice, with one team employee describing him as “not human.”

Vikings people I talked to the last couple days were stunned by how Adrian Peterson looked this week. One staffer: "Not human."

Just talk to get into the heads of the Indianapolis Colts? Maybe, but you wouldn’t be surprised, either, even if Peterson hasn’t played since Week 2. The Vikings probably wouldn’t go right ahead and start him if he didn’t look ready and threatening.
