Minnesota Vikings vs. New Orleans Saints | Week 4 2022 Game Highlights

THESE GUYS AROUND TO BRING THEM UP. THIRD AND LONG. GET PHYSICAL AT FRONT AND THE BIG DOGS ON THE EDGE. CAMERON JORDAN AND MARCUS DAVENPORT READY TO RUSH THE PASSER. MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO COVER SOMEBODY. THAT IS ALONG WAY TO RUN. >> Kevin: C.J. HAM IN THE GAME AND OFFSET THE PLAY ACTION FOR COUSINS. LINE UP OUTSIDE IN THE EMPTY FORMATION AND RUN THE QUICK GAME OUT WITH COUSINS. >> Kevin: SECOND DOWN AND 8, COUSINS AND CAUGHT AGAIN BY JUSTIN JEFFERSON, JUST SHY OF LAST YEAR. SO GOOD AT FAKING AND BOOTLEGS. WATCH THIS. >> Kevin:

TO THE TOP OF YOUR SCREEN, COUSINS GOES TO WORK AND FINDS DALVIN COOK. SLANT ROUTE AND GET OUT OF IT. OUT OF THE FOXHOLE ON THAT ONE. >> Kevin: THIRD AND GOAL. COUSINS IS OPEN, IT TOUCHDOWN. INTERFERENCE. >> Referee: PASS INTERFERENCE, >> THAT IS EXACTLY THE PICK YOU LOOK FOR WHEN YOU SEE SOMEONE THAT WIDE OPEN AND YOU ALWAYS SUSPECTS SOMETHING. THAT WAS A BLOCK MORE THAN DOWNFIELD WITH THE RIGHT CALL. >> Kevin: THIRD AND GOAL. THEY SET IT UP FOR MATTISON AND INTO THE END ZONE. RUG FOR ALEXANDER MATTISON AND GETTING OUT IN FRONT.

51, THE RIGHT GUARD. HE THREW A GREAT BLOCK IN OPEN SPACE. THEY NEED SOME SORT OF QUICK THROW. >> Kevin: DALTON, SIDELINE TOSS LOOKING FOR RUNNING ROOM

UP THE PARTIAL DISLOCATION LAST WEEK AND THIS INJURY HANGS WITH HIM THROUGHOUT HIS CAREER. HE SAID HE WAS HARDHEADED AND THOUGHT HE STRENGTHENED IT ENOUGH THAT IT WOULD NOT BE PART OF HIS KICK FOR THE REST OF THE SEASON. COUNTERPART THAT BOUNCED. UNBALANCED FORMATION. >> Kevin: THEY ARE GOING PACE WITH C.J. HAM IN THE GAME LIKE WE WERE TALKING ABOUT EARLIER. >> Mark: GET UP TO THE LINE OF

SCRIMMAGE, TAKE A PICTURE OF THE DEFENSE AND DIAL-UP THE PLAY THAT YOU WANT. UNCOMFORTABLE AND NOT GIVE HIM ROOM TO STEP UP. THEY HAVE TO BE MORE CONSISTENT WITH THE SECOND DOWN. >> Kevin: SIX DEFENSIVE BACKS AND COUSINS WITH PRESSURE STEPS CAMERON DANTZLER. >> Kevin: THIRD AND 3. PRESSURE COMES AND DOWN HE GOES. DROPPED AT THE 15 BY ZA’DARIUS HE CAN DO IT ALL WITH THE STEADY HITTER WITH THE SINGLES AND DOUBLES. COOK CAN GIVE YOU THE HOME RUN BRETT AROUND THE EDGE AND BREAKING OFF THE BIG RUNS. >> Kevin: SECOND AND 8, COUSIN TO

THE SIDELINE AND INTERCEPTED. JUMP THIS ROUTE. JUST A QUICK CUT AND HE SAW HIM A LITTLE BIT LATE AND THEN THE HONEY BADGER COMES UP TO MAKE HIM PAY. >> Mark: IT IS TAYSOM HILL WHO GETS THE SAINTS FIRST FIRST BUDDIES INSIDE. HE GOT BOTH DONE IN ONE PLAY SHOWING VERSATILITY. >> Kevin: TO THE SIDELINE AND FEAR OF GOD IN HIM HE WILL RUN WITH A TOUCHDOWN RIGHT BY HIM AND THEN DO THE FLYBY, GET QUICK AND EASY POSITION. >> Kevin: TAYSOM HILL, DALTON LOOKING TOWARD THAT DIRECTION. THROWS AND ESPECIALLY AT THE FRONT AND LINE

FOR THE GOAL. HE HAS TO THROW THAT TO THE BELT LOOP OR LOWER SO THESE GUYS DON’T GET PICKED UP. >> Kevin: THE PLAY OF THE DRIVE AND DALTON LOOKING INSIDE. THE CATCH IS MADE. CHRIS OLAVE WITH THE TOUCHDOWN. >> Mark: WATCH CHRIS OLAVE . OFFENSE GOING ONCE MORE. >> Mark: HE NEEDS SOME EASY COMPLETIONS AND YOU SEE MARSHON LATTIMORE TRAVELING EVERYWHERE WITH JUSTIN JEFFERSON. LAKE OPEN WITH THE CATCH BUT COUSINS DICING UP THIS DEFENSE RIGHT NOW. >> Kevin: THAT IS COOK, TRIPPED UP. HE HAD AN OPENING AND THAT WAS DEMARIO DAVIS THAT TRIPPED HIM

THERE IS UP TOP OF THE SCREEN. THAT IS A LONG WAY, THIRD AND 3. THE SAGEBRUSH 4 AND THEY GET TO COUSINS, AND THEIR EGOS. CRUCIAL THIRD-DOWN. >> Kevin: 0 FOR 2 ON THE FIRST TWO DRIVES AND 3 FOR 3 ON THE LAST DRIVE. OUTSIDE ZONES AND THEY DON’T WANT TO HAVE TO DROP BACK 15 TIMES. NOW LOOK AT THE DEFENSIVE ENDS, READY TO TEE OFF. >> Kevin: THIRD-DOWN, COUSINS OVER THE MIDDLE AND THERE WHEN YOU NEED THE FIRST DOWN. THE HAND ENOUGH WITHOUT DRAWING THE OFFENSE OF PASS INTERFERENCE. >> Kevin: EVERY CATCH FOR THIELEN

IS 10 YARDS OR GREATER. COUSINS TO THE SIDELINE. FLYING OFF THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE, THE CLICKER AND GO. HE LEFT THEM IN THE DUST. YOU HAVE TO SHOW THE GUY YOU ARE RUNNING THE GOAL BALL. >> Kevin: COUSINS OVER THE MIDDLE AND FINDS JEFFERSON ON THE CROSS. THEN THE TIDE STARTED TO TURN. THEY NEED TO GET UP ON THE DEFENSE AND MAKE A STATEMENT STOP TO GIVE THE BALL BACK TO THE OFFENSE WITH ABOUT A MINUTE LEFT. THEY GOT OUT SCHEMED, THE SAINTS, THAT IS. >> Kevin: THIRD AND 1, COUSINS, RIGHT THROUGH THE HANDS OF

SOMETIMES IT’S BETTER TO BE LUCKY THAN GOOD. HOLDING THIS TEAM TO 3. >> Kevin: 28 YARD FIELD GOAL TELEVISION PURPOSES BUT YOU GET THE IDEA. >> Mark: WELL DONE. IN THE PICTURE HERE FOR THE SAINTS, THE HAVE TO TRY TO STEAL POINTS DURING THE HALFTIME AND THEY GET THE BALL COMING OUT OF THE THIRD QUARTER. >> Kevin: DOWN EGOS IN THE BALL CAME OUT. THE BALL CAME OUT IN THE PLAY AND VIKINGS RECOVER WITH YOU JUST GOT A HUGE TURNOVER FROM YOUR DEFENSE, AND YOU HAVE THREE POINTS ESSENTIALLY IN THE BAG HERE. YOU HAVE TO

BE VERY SHARP. >> Kevin: THIRD-DOWN, COUSINS LOOKING. PRESSURED LATE, AND GETS RID OF SPONSORING THE WORLD TO BE PART OF SUCH A BEAUTIFUL GAME. >> Kevin: 36 YARD TRY FOR GREG JOSEPH. JOSEPH’S KICK IS GOOD. VIKINGS PUT THREE ON THE BOARD MORE OF THAT AND HE SAID HE WAS MORE FOCUSED ON THE FUNDAMENTALS VERSUS ANYTHING CUTE RIGHT NOW. >> Kevin: YOU SEE WHAT THEY DO ON THE FIRST DOWN, SIX RUNS AND THEY ARE JUST CONFUSED ON THE PLAY. IT LOOKED LIKE THEY DID NOT KNOW EXACTLY WHICH WAY THEY WANTED IT TO GO BUT ENDED OUT

BOUNCING IT. >> Kevin: PUSHING A LOSS OF FOUR BRING UP SECOND AND 14. PIN BACK THE YEARS TO TURN IT INTO A TRACK MEET. THEY ARE TIME TO MEET AT THE QUARTERBACK AT 8 1/2 YARDS DEEP WHICH IS WHAT THEY DID, CLUSTERING KIRK COUSINS. WHAT FIRST THREE AND OUT OF THE DAY FOR THE VIKINGS OFFENSE. THE JUMP STOP TO THE 45. THE BALL POPS OUT AND LOSE DOWN POSITION. YOU TRY TO GET ONE EXTRA YARD AND THE BALL COMES OUT. NOW THE VIKINGS HAVE OPPORTUNITY AT THE 44 IN NEW ORLEANS. IN THE BACKFIELD, OFF THE

PLAY, COUSIN STEPS UP. HE THROWS DID JEFFERSON AND SIDELINED IT LINE PLAYER WITH CAMRYN BYNUM. PLAYING WITH AT 40 YARD COMPLETION. >> Kevin: SECOND AND GOAL, COUSINS WITH PRESSURE UP THE DAVENPORT IS UP IN HIS GRILL AND HE CANNOT FINISH THE THROAT THROW. HE TRIES TO ADJUST BUT NOT ENOUGH. THEY HAD HIM ONE-ON-ONE DOWN AND TIGHT AND THAT IS TOUGH. >> Kevin: THIRD AND GO, COUSINS AND EVEN WITH THE CATCH AND TO HIM IN THE BACK CORNER. >> Kevin: SO IT IS A 24 YARD TRY FOR GREG JOSEPH, 2 FOR 2 TODAY. >> Kevin: THAT

LEAVES WASHINGTON AND MURRAY AS THE TWO RUNNING BACKS WITH JONES INACTIVE AND ALVIN KAMARA INACTIVE AS WE TALK ABOUT AT THE TOP OF THE BROADCAST. >> Mark: THERE IS MURRAY AND HILL OFF THE PLAY ACTION. OR 18 POINT. THEY HAVE GIVEN UP 14 POINTS ON TURNOVERS THAT WENT TO THE HOUSE. NOW TWO TURNOVERS RESULTING WITH POINTS. THAT’S THE DIFFERENCE WITH THIS TEAM BEING 1-2 JEFFERSON TRYING TO GET THEM INVOLVED. HE DOES NOT WANT TO BE OUT ON THE EDGE LIKE THEY WERE AGAINST DETROIT, GETTING JAMMED. YOU CAN SEE THE SPACING HE HAS OUT HERE. THIRD-DOWN,

COUSINS OVER THE ANYTHING. WOULD JUST ONE DRIVE, YOU SAID IT THE OTHER DAY THAT YOU CANNOT SCORED 21 POINTS WITH ONE DRIVE. YOU HAVE TO BE SMART, NOT LET THE EMOTIONS GET THE BEST OF YOU. I THINK THIS IS A WISE DECISION. >> Kevin: A FAKE THROUGH THE AIR, OPEN, FIRST DOWN. FINDING JALEN NAILOR FOR HIS FIRST CAREER CATCH AND VIKINGS >> Kevin: HERE IS THE SPECIALTY TEAMS, WITH THE JETS, KEVIN O’CONNELL WITH A COUPLE OF OTHER COACHES ON HIS STAFF. DIALING THEM UP. >> Kevin: THIS IS DALVIN COOK INTERNATIONAL SERIES BETWEEN MINNESOTA AND NEW

ORLEANS WITH TWO POINTS SEPARATING THESE TWO NFL CLUBS. THIRD AND 21 AS WE START THE QUARTER. >> Mark: DRAWL PLAY, COOK TO THE OUTSIDE. MINNESOTA UNABLE TO CAPITALIZE ON HUGE PLACE. THAT IS BY THE SPECIALTY TEAMS. >> Mark: 46 YARD DRIVE FOR MOBILE WITH NFL+. THAT WILL BE THE 32nd AND FINAL TEAM TO PLAY IN LONDON. EVERY TEAM WILL THE PLAYED HERE IN ENGLAND AFTER THE PACKERS GAME. >> Kevin: THE DRIVE FOR THAT SAINTS, MURRAY. IT IS LATAVIUS MURRAY ON THE EDGE AND WHAT A TACKLE MADE BY GUYS. HERE GOES TAYSOM HILL. THIS IS WHAT

WE HAVE TO SAY FROM THIS RUSHING ATTACK. >> Kevin: HILL AND AN OPENING ON THE RIGHT SIDE FOR TAYSOM HE WILL BE SPLIT OUT. >> Mark: THERE IS THE TIGHT END AT THE TOP OF YOUR SCREEN. >> Kevin: SECOND AND 8. THE THROW, LOOKING AND FINDING BUT OUT OF BOUNDS AT THE VIKINGS 21. ANDY DALTON LOOKS LIKE HE IS IN THE GROUP, SHAKING OFF THE JITTERS AND STARTING THE GAME FOR THE FIRST TIME IN A LITTLE BIT. >> Kevin: SECOND AND 2. TRAFFIC THAT CALL, EASY BREATHING FOR THE QUARTERBACK BUT LOOK AT THIS IN THE

BACKFIELD, TAYSOM HILL. >> Kevin: FIRST DOWN AND GO, HILL TO THE RIGHT. TOUCHDOWN AND THE SAINTS TAKE THE LEAD CHARGE AND FILLING IN FOR THE INJURED ANDRUS PEAT. I WOULD NOT BE SHOCKED IF THEY TRY TO GET HIM ON THE RUN. >> Kevin: ANDREW IS THE MOST A MAN AND A TWO POINT TRY. IT IS LANDRY ALL ALONE. THE LEAD FOR THE SAINTS. RIGHT NOW. >> Kevin: EXCELLENT POINTS BUT REGARDLESS OF HOW MUCH SLEEP YOU GOT, THESE GUYS UP FRONT HAVE TO PROTECT COUSINS. THEY WILL GIVE HIM EXTRA TIME BEFORE THEY RELEASE THE ROUTES. >>

Kevin: COUSINS PRESSURE SPINS AROUND MARSHON LATTIMORE LIKE A TOP, WIDE OPEN. THESE ARE BIG LEAGUES SO YOU HAVE TO LOLLIPOP THE GOD AND YOU HAVE TO HIT HIM, AND KIRK COUSINS DID IT. >> Kevin: IF THE FOLKS IN LONDON HAVE NOT LEARNED BY NOW WHAT A PHYSICAL GAME THIS IS, THEY HAVE BY NOW. >> Mark: THIS DEFENSE IS ALL ABOUT IT, READY TO CARRY THE TEAM. >> Kevin: THIRD AND 10, THE FIELD AT THE 30 I, 38 YARD LINE. GUT PUNCH TO THE SAINTS GIVING FIRST DOWN TO THE VIKINGS. >> Mark: HERE IS MATHIEU. PAY

ATTENTION TO HIM. LET’S SAY. >> Kevin: EITHER WAY, 37. 4:37 TO GO IN THE FOURTH WITH THREE POINT SAINTS IT LEAD WITH MATTISON MOTIONING IN THE BACK FIELD YOUR FOR A MAN RUSH AGAIN. >> Kevin: IT IS DEFLECTED A AND THERE IS THE FLAG. MARSHON LATTIMORE WORKING AGAINST THIELEN. WILLIAMS COMES OVER TO TIP IT >> Mark: KIRK COUSINS WITH THE DEEP SHOT AND YOU SEE THE BACKYARD SAFETY TRYING TO REPLACE OVER THE TOP WITH WILLIAMS COMING FROM THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE SCREEN. THE RESULT, FIRST AND GOAL AT THE 3. >> Mark: BOTTOM LINE MINNESOTA

HAS TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THESE PLAYOFFS. HOW YOU GET DOWN HERE DOES NOT MATTER. >> Kevin: JEFFERSON AND HE WILL THEY DON’T EVEN HAVE TO BLOCK THE END. DAVENPORT, THEY JUST LET HIM RUN FREIGHT AND EXPECT JUSTIN JEFFERSON TO TURN THAT CORNER AND TO BEAT HIM. >> Kevin: THE EXTRA POINT BY JOSEPH, AND IT IS NO GOOD. QUESTIONABLE RETURN WITH A DIE INJURY. >> Kevin: THANK YOU SO MUCH. SECOND AND 4. >> Mark: NOTHING WRONG WITH SLAMMING THIS THING IN THERE. POINT THIS SONORAVILLE FOR THE SAINTS IS DIFFERENT THAN IT WOULD HAVE BEEN. THEY NEEDED

TO GET INTO FIELD- GOAL RANGE AND NOT NECESSARILY TO GET A TOUCHDOWN HERE YOU KNOW THAT WOULD LIKE TO SCORE A TOUCHDOWN. DALTON TO THE SIDELINES AND OPEN, ADAM TRAUTMAN WITH THE PRESSURE FROM THE OUTSIDE, AND THEY KNEW WHAT WAS GOING ON TO CIRCLE THE DEFENSE TO GET OUTSIDE. >> Kevin: THE LAST TIME THESE TWO SQUARED OFF, ANDY DALTON AND WITH CHRIS, IT WAS A TOP. >> Kevin: KNOCK A AND IT WAS DALTON CALLOWAY EARLIER ALMOST HAD A BIG ONE AND THROUGH OLAVE. THIS IS WHERE HE HAS TO COME ALIVE TO BE THE PREMIER PLAYMAKER

AND PICK UP THE SLACK THE WARM-UPS AND THE PREGAME WITH TWO FROM 60 YARDS RIGHT ON TOP OF THE FOOTBALL IN THE NFL LOGO. HE IS TRYING TO SEND IT THROUGH TO TIE THE GAME FROM 60 FOR WIL LUTZ. BOTH TEAMS HAVE THREE TIMEOUTS REMAINING. COUSINS AND VIKINGS FROM THEIR OWN 18 FIRST DOWN. >> Kevin: A GOOD ONE AND THE FIRST DOWN BEFORE GOING OUT OF THE OUTSIDE BUT DALVIN COOK MADE THE JOB A LOT EASIER. >> Kevin: FIRST AND 10, JEFFERSON HAS GOT IT. THIRD AND 9. CAN’T STOP IT. IT IS OSBORNE ON THE

RUN AND >> Mark: HUGE DAY FOR THE VIKINGS SPECIAL TEAMS. >> Kevin: 37 YARD TRY FOR GREG JOSEPH. IT IS THE KICK BY JOSEPH AND IT IS GOOD. THE VIKINGS TAKE THE LEAD WITH 24 SECONDS LEFT TO PLAY. FOR THE QUARTERBACK THAT LED. YOU DON’T GET A LOT OF THESE REPS BUT YOU SEE ROUTES GOING TOWARD THE SIDELINES TO TRY TO GET THE BIG CHUNK PLAYS. >> Kevin: THAT IS DALTON DEEP AND HE HAS GOT IT. THEY HAVE NO TIMEOUT BUT THERE IS AN INJURED VIKING . THAT WILL STOP THE PLAY. THEY WILL PLAYED THE

SIDELINE DEFENSE TO MAKE SURE NOTHING GETS OUTSIDE OF THEM. >> Kevin: DALTON AGAIN, LOOKING CAN HE DUPLICATE IT? >> Mark: HOPE YOU HAD AN EXTRA HELPING BECAUSE HE NEEDS EVERYTHING HE IS GOT TO NAIL THIS ONE. >> Kevin: GOOD SNAP AND HOLD, AND IT IS THE WIL LUTZ KICK ALL THE WAY. IT IS OVER IN LONDON. WIL LUTZ AND IT FALLS OUT. 28-25, AND THE VIKINGS HANG ON BY THE WITS AT THE CROSSBAR. BY THE WITS AT THE CROSSBAR.
