Peterson appreciates award but wants more wins

Vikings RB Adrian Peterson was honored to be named the NFL Offensive Rookie for a second consecutive month. He also knew how rare the repeat honor was, noting that Jeremy Shockey did it in 2002.

But there is something he wants more: victories.

"So far, things are going good," he said. "But what would put the icing on the cake is a better record. The ultimate (goal) is to win games."

Menwhile, the Vikings have about 1,350 tickets remaining to avoid a blackout. Vikings vice president Steve LaCroix said discussions with WCCO management are ongoing about how to sell those tickets by the NFL's noon deadline tomorrow.
