The Minnesota Vikings crawled back to .500 on Sunday at Lambeau Field, but it came at a tremendous cost. Kirk Cousins, clear star quarterback for the Vikings, tore his Achilles during a 24-10 win over the Green Bay Packers and will miss the rest of the season. Barring some significant additions at the upcoming Halloween trade deadline, the Vikings now face an emergency situation that will likely determine the rest of their 2023 season.
