The Minnesota Vikings season took a hard turn down the wrong road when quarterback Teddy Bridgewater tore his ACL and dislocated his knee in non-contact drill at the end of August. Now, the team will rally around running back Adrian Peterson and newly acquired quarterback Sam Bradford.

While the Vikings season may look lost, it's not that lost. Yes, Bradford is the type of quarterback who won't get your team wins, but Peterson is the type of running back that will.

The Vikings may not win the NFC North, but they will be fighting for a playoff spot come Jan. 3, 2017, the final day of the regular season.
