The Arizona Cardinals acquired Adrian Peterson on Oct.10 and plan to put the running back to good use now that he's acclimated to the system.
Coming out of the bye week, the Cardinals want to make the seven-time Pro Bowler the focal point of the game plan against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday.
"Feed the beast," Cardinals offensive coordinator Harold Goodwin said of Peterson via the team's official website. "It's like an old stove. The more wood you put in it, the hotter it gets. We’ve just got to make sure we feed him the ball so he can get comfortable."
Peterson is evidently ready to go.
"I'm all about that," Peterson said.
Whether the former New Orleans Saint can regain his all-world form remains to be seen, but he'll be given every opportunity to prove he's not done quite yet.
