The Minnesota Vikings enjoyed a bonkers victory over the Green Bay Packers in Week 11, sent home via a game-winning kick courtesy of Greg Joseph. The 29-yard field goal was set up by Kirk Cousins' heroics on the final drive of the game. And, of course, Darnell Savage dropping an interception.
After the game, Cousins was fired up, and rightfully so. While driving home with his family in the car, Cousins happened to spot a van decked out in Vikings flags. Looking to share his joy with the Vikings faithful, Cousins pulled up next to the vehicle and began honking until they noticed him. They clearly recognized the quarterback as the van began honking like crazy, much to the joy of Cousins. The quarterback shared the moment via his Instagram account.

The fans were probably already stoked after the suspenseful win against their arch-rivals, but seeing the quarterback that helped secure the win on the ride home is a whole other level of awesome. Cousins made sure it was a moment the fans would never forget as he celebrated with them highway-style.
Cousins threw for 341 yards and three touchdowns in the pivotal win. He didn't have any turnovers, although he came scarily close on the final drive of the game. The win sees the Vikings improve to 5-5 on the year and narrows the gap in the NFC North between them and the Packers.
Hopefully, Cousins can maintain this level of confidence when the Vikings travel to San Francisco for their Week 12 matchup with Jimmy Garoppolo and the 49ers.
