VIDEO: Vikings Extend Lead Over Saints With Dalvin Cook TD After Long Cousins-to-Thielen Connection
By Thomas Carannante

This was made possible by Kirk Cousins delivering an absolute dime to Adam Thielen, who beautifully tracked down the rainbow pass on 3rd and 9 to keep the drive alive.

Flat-out gorgeous. One of Kirk's best throws of 2019-20.
