Detroit's Matt Patricia favors aggressive man-to-man coverage on the two star wide receivers. Diggs says he relishes the challenge.
Playing at home against an Eagles defense he's consistently handled during his career, Kirk Cousins looked as comfortable last Sunday as he has in his year-and-a-half as the Vikings' quarterback. He unfurled deep shots to Stefon Diggs and connected with Adam Thielen in the middle of the Eagles' zones, posting his second four-touchdown game as the Vikings' quarterback against a team set up to shut down Dalvin Cook.
A third consecutive victory for the Vikings on Sunday, and a third consecutive 300-yard passing game for the quarterback, will in all likelihood require Cousins and company to master a different set of challenges.
