So far, so good for Kirk Cousins as a Viking. He’s done well in the purple and white to this point, tossing 669 yards and six touchdowns. He has just one interception in two games.

Things should continue to go well for Cousins, as he and his Vikings face the Buffalo Bills this weekend. The Bills allowed 28 points before half time last week and gave up 47 in their season opener. In other words, Cousins is licking his chops at this match-up.

According to Fantasy Pros,

"The Bills surrendered three touchdowns apiece to Joe Flacco and Philip Rivers, who combined to complete 49 of 65 passes for 492 yards."

Um, yeah. Sign me up for that!

Cousins is projected for 17 points this week in ESPN leagues, but he’s recorded 20 and 33 in his two games so far, so him getting more than 17 is a strong possibility. If you have Cousins on your team, make sure he’s in your starting lineup this week.
