Cousins throws 2 TDs, Vikings bounce back to beat Chargers

Article Summary:
The Vikings bounced back from two straight close losses and one of the most tumultuous weeks of Zimmer’s eight-season tenure with a 27-20 victory over the Los Angeles Chargers.
The Vikings went up 13-3 in the second quarter on a 5-yard touchdown pass from Cousins to Conklin. “I’m proud of him. I love the way he plays.”
Dustin Hopkins’ second field goal got the Chargers within a touchdown, but they didn’t get the ball back. Cousins connected with Adam Thielen for an 18-yard completion on third-and-18 from the Minnesota 46, and Cook had a 4-yard gain on fourth down to allow the Vikings to run out the clock after the Chargers burned all their timeouts.
