Kirk Cousins was supposed to come to Minnesota and be the man to put the Vikings over the top, somewhere they felt Case Keenum couldn’t quite take them. Instead, the Vikings find themselves fighting for a playoff spot in Week 17.
After an awful possession in a half of football that resulted in just three net yards for the Vikings offense, Cousins and WR Adam Thielen could be seen getting into a heated exchange of words with the QB appearing to tell Thielen how to properly run a specific route.
