Dalvin Cook runs wild in Vikings’ upset over Packers

Running back Dalvin Cook had quite the day for the Vikings and for his fantasy football owners in Sunday’s win over the Packers, running for 163 yards and three touchdowns to go with two catches for 63 yards and a touchdown.

The Vikings won 28-22, moving to 2-5 on the season.

It continues what has been a touchdown hot streak for Cook against the Packers.

In his last four games against the Packers, Cook has found the end zone eight times.

Cook now has 11 total touchdowns on the season. His career-high is 13, a mark he hit last year.

If he can stay healthy, which is a big ‘if’ for Cook, he’ll set a new career-high.

His next opportunity will be in Week 9 against the Lions at U.S. Bank Stadium. Heading into Week 8, the Lions ranked 26th in rushing yards allowed and had allowed 11 rushing touchdowns.

The odds look good for Cook to continue his hot streak.
