VIDEO: Kirk Cousins Hits Adam Thielen for 35-Yard Vikings TD vs Raiders

After melting down last week against the Green Bay Packers, Kirk Cousins is off to a much better start against the porous Oakland Raiders secondary. Cousins gave his Minnesota Vikings a 7-0 lead over the Raiders when he linked up with Adam Thielen for a 35-yard touchdown.

While the Vikings might be leaning more on Dalvin Cook and the running game this year, their well-paid QB still needs to play well for the team to have a shot in the NFC North, and this bomb to Thielen is an encouraging start.
