Cousins Throws 2 TDs, Vikings Bounce Back to Beat Chargers

INGLEWOOD, Calif. (AP) — Kirk Cousins threw a pair of touchdown passes to Tyler Conklin, Dalvin Cook rushed for 94 yards and a score, and the Minnesota Vikings bounced back after a trying couple of weeks to defeat the Los Angeles Chargers 27-20 Sunday.

Justin Jefferson had nine receptions for 143 yards to help Minnesota improve to 4-5 and end a two-game losing streak after it squandered late leads to Dallas and Baltimore.

Los Angeles has dropped three of its past four to fall to 5-4.

The Vikings host the Packers this Sunday at U.S. Bank Stadium.
