Dalvin Cook leads Vikings past Packers with record performance at Lambeau Field

GREEN BAY, WIS. - In recent years, the Vikings have drafted running backs, hired and fired offensive coordinators, and offered an eight-­figure contract based on an almost countercultural belief that they can base their offense around a forceful running game in an era in which teams are throwing the ball more frequently than ever.

They got Dalvin Cook back from a strained groin in time for Sunday's game at Lambeau Field, intending to lean heavily on the Pro Bowler in a building where he ran for 154 yards a year ago.

On the first day of November, when swirling winds whipped through the empty stadium bowl at speeds of up to 40 miles per hour, the Vikings' second - and undoubtedly their most prized - victory of the season became evidence for their thesis. It will be remembered for one of the greatest individual performances in the venerated stadium's 63-year history.
