Dalvin Cook

The Raiders have actually done very well against the run the first two weeks, but Dalvin Cook is becoming matchup-proof in this new Vikings offense. Offensive Coordinator Kevin Stefanski along with Gary Kubiak as an offensive advisor, has given this run game new life in Minnesota. Cook is perfect for their zone running concepts and has been a big-play machine these first two weeks.

Cook has 20 carries or more in each of the first two games and his averaging 6.5 yards per carry and over 20 fantasy points. He leads the NFL in rushing with 265 yards and with the issues they’ve had passing the ball Cook is a threat in any situation.

The Vikings continued to run the ball even when they were down 21-0 to the Packers, so it is safe to say they are committed.

Cook should get another 20 carries this game and be the focal point of the offensive gameplan.
