Adrian Peterson says 1,000 yards 'easy,' now wants playoff push

ASHBURN, Va. -- Washington Redskins running back Adrian Peterson doesn’t need to let coach Jay Gruden know what he thinks. He just has to give him the look.

The look has been seen on NFL sidelines since Peterson came into the league in 2007 and can be translated as this: Run the ball. That’s the message Peterson delivered in Week 15 -- and it’s one he wants to give for the next two weeks.

He knows where to park himself on the sideline, too: right next to Gruden. Just in case Gruden wants another playcaller.
