Adrian Peterson demands a win in London from the Vikings

The Minnesota Vikings arrived in London ahead of Sunday’s Wembley date with the Pittsburgh Steelers, and it seems they have come determined to take home a win.

Both teams have suffered a 0-3 start to their season, but reigning MVP Adrian Peterson says that’s all about to change.

“I haven’t had the opportunity to talk to anybody who’s played over here, but we have a pretty good game plan to adjust to the time change and be ready to play on Sunday,” said Peterson.

“It’s just another game on the schedule, but it’s definitely time for us to get a W. This is not a vacation for us. It’s time for us to focus and win a game.

“It can be challenging, but it’s challenging for the other team, too. Equal playing field.”

By his own incredibly high standards, Peterson has had a subdued start. Despite scoring three touchdowns – the first a 78-yard run in the Vikings’ first snap of the season in Detroit – he averages just 2.99 yards per carry.
