For the majority of the week, we heard about how Kirk Cousins couldn’t perform in prime time games. That narrative kind of went by the wayside on Sunday Night Football between the Minnesota Vikings and the Green Bay Packers.
Paced by three touchdown passes by Cousins, the Vikings put away the Packers by a final score of 24-17 and took a big step towards securing a postseason berth in the NFC.
The Packers got on the board first in this one, courtesy of a 15-yard touchdown pass from Aaron Rodgers to Davante Adams to make it 7-0.
