MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Kirk Cousins was sacked a career-high seven times in the Minnesota Vikings’ 40-3 loss to the Dallas Cowboys.
The Vikings lost 49 yards on those plays and finished with a season-low 183 total yards.
Minnesota struggled from the outset, particularly against Micah Parsons and the Cowboys’ league-leading pass rush.
Left tackle Christian Darrisaw, who hadn’t allowed a sack all season, surrendered two before leaving for the second straight week with a concussion.
At one point, Minnesota had backups in at left tackle and left guard.
