The Minnesota Vikings had their opportunities to extend their winning streak to four games and get their record back to .500 after a 1-5 start. However, they failed to get the job done when it mattered most.
Andy Dalton’s third touchdown pass of the day, a two-yarder to tight end Dalton Schultz, was enough to give the Cowboys their third win of the season at U.S. Bank Stadium, as they defeated the Vikings by a final score of 31-28.
The Cowboys got on the board first in this one, following a sack of Kirk Cousins that saw him stripped by safety Donovan Wilson in Minnesota territory.
