The Vikings were heating up at the right time, everything was starting to go our way until Kirk Cousins had fallen to the ground in pain, in the fourth quarter. Right away Vikings fans knew something was wrong, a video later released had Vikings fan praying. The video shows a pop in Kirk Cousins calf, indicating an achilles injury which would definitely put him out for the rest of the season.
