Vikings [Vikings] Vikings RB Adrian Peterson Displaying A Strong Arm In Practice

Peterson paused and flexed his right arm after overthrowing a receiver in the end zone on one play this week, then made up for it by finding another kid open in the back corner for a TD. When he moved to another field, he got a taste of what it's really like to be a quarterback when his waist-high defenders came on the attack. "We picked up (Florida speedster) Percy Harvin, so we're going to be running a lot of different scat formations ... maybe Wildcat," Peterson said, referring to the Dolphins' use of the direct snap to a running back. "We might just throw that in there some. So, you guys just might see me on Sundays throwing the ball, too."

That would be a hell of a wrinkle for Childress to add in to the offense.

Why do you hate trick plays if they work? lol..Brett Favre will find this unexceptable as he is the only one that should throw the ball with the tv cameras roling...maybe they'll give Brett a stunt double for plays where he wont be throwing the ball

Their not trick plays.
