Childress Understands
Eden Prairie, MN – Minnesota Vikings coach Brad Childress says the time he spent getting to know Brett Favre better in Mississippi will help grow their relationship this year if he decides to return.

Childress also says offseason visits to Favre’s home have given him more clarity about the quarterback’s thought process about continuing his career.
Childress said the Favre situation was “all quiet” in an interview with The Associated Press on Friday afternoon, a week before training camp starts. Favre has not declared his intention yet for 2010.
Childress also says there’s no rift between him and running back Adrian Peterson, who missed the mandatory minicamp last month for a hometown festival in his honor in Texas. Childress says the absence “wasn’t the end of the world.”
