Cousins spoke about how this week’s matchup against the Chicago Bears is a great opportunity for the Vikings to continue their push for the playoffs, how he is using his legs more this season, what his sliding technique is when he runs the ball, why he is getting sacked more the past two games (10 times), and his thoughts on extending plays versus throwing the ball away.

Cook discussed how the Vikings can get back on track against the Bears, the extra dimension Cousins can bring to the offense when he decides to run, his thoughts on Bears defensive lineman Akiem Hicks and Chicago’s defensive line, and if he pays attention to the NFL rushing title. Currently, Tennessee’s Derrick Henry is No. 1 in rushing yards.
