WATCH: Kirk Cousins delivers perfect pass to K.J. Osborn for the win

The Minnesota Vikings found a way to pull out a clunker win 28-24 over the Detroit Lions on Sunday afternoon.

After falling down both 14-0 in the first half and 24-14 in the second half, they scored 14 unanswered points twice to both tie the game and take their first lead of the game with just 45 seconds left in the game.

The game-winning drive spanned just three plays and 58 yards but it was extremely effective. Kirk Cousins hit K.J. Osborn on a nice corner route.

The concept comes from a condensed set out of 11 personnel where Thielen ran an out route helping draw the coverage to him and creating a traffic jam in a condensed space.

The Vikings needed a big day from both Osborh and Thielen and they got just that. Huge win to get the Vikings to 2-1 overall and a vital 2-0 in the NFC North.
