EAGAN, Minn. – There’s something different about Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins so far this season.
Coach Mike Zimmer sees enhanced leadership. Running back Dalvin Cook sees a fourth-quarter killer instinct. The stats show one of the better quarterbacks in the league.
That may seem unusual, considering the Vikings -- who host Seattle on Sunday (4:25 p.m., ET, Fox) -- are 0-2.
But in both losses, the Vikings found themselves in position late in games to grind out victories.
