KANSAS CITY, MO. – Coach Mike Zimmer entered the Vikings' preseason finale Friday night looking for confidence in his offense. The 28-25 loss against the Chiefs likely did little to ease his concerns heading into the regular season.
Kirk Cousins' preseason ended with just one score — a 26-yard field goal by Greg Joseph — in six drives, failing to produce the points Zimmer sought from any quarterback. The Vikings' winless preseason saw the offense score two touchdowns in 35 drives against the Broncos, Colts and Chiefs.
Cousins came within 8 yards of the goal line on the opening drive.
