Week 8 upsets came in bunches, and they were highlighted by the Vikings 28-22 win over the Packers in Green Bay. Dalvin Cook made it happen with a memorable display.
Dalvin Cook erupted for 163 rushing yards, three rushing TD's and 63 yards receiving with a receiving touchdown as well. Cook's four touchdown game put him in elite company.
Cook became just the third player in franchise history to record four TD's in a game, joining Chuck Foreman and legendary reporter, Ahmad Rashad. What an incredible feat.
Cook is also the first ever player to score four touchdowns and over 200 scrimmage yards in Lambeau Field! The fact that he's a division rival makes this even sweeter of a victory.
Cook was absolutely phenomenal against the Packers and showed why he should be considered a top five running back in the NFL. He is a game changer.
The Vikings only completed 11 passes in this game, yet they managed to take down the division leading Packers at home. It seems as though their success as a team relies on the effectiveness of their running game.
Cook now has over 130 yards in three of his last four games, including at least one rushing touchdown in every game this season. Cook is quietly on pace for an incredible statistical year.
Cook is projected to rush for over 1,300 yards and 19 rushing touchdowns.
The Vikings play the Lions twice, the Cowboys, Jaguars, and Panthers to finish off the season. If Cook continues to play at such a high level, the Vikings may have a chance to make a late playoff push.
