The New York Jets (3-3), led by quarterback Sam Darnold met the Minnesota Vikings (3-2-1) in NFL Week 7.


A game that has been circled on the Jets schedule all year. The New York Jets aggressively pursued quarterback Kirk Cousins. They offered him a 3 year 90 million contract fully guaranteed, but he decided to sign with the Minnesota Vikings for 3 years 84 million fully guaranteed,


Kirk Cousins threw two touchdown passes, Latavius Murray ran for two scores, and the Minnesota Vikings pulled away to beat the New York Jets 37-17 on Sunday for their third straight victory.


In their first meeting, Cousins came out on top, while Darnold struggled on a cold, windy day.


The rookie was 17 of 42 for 206 yards with a TD pass to Chris Herndon and a TD run, but was intercepted three times as New York's two-game winning streak ended.


Darnold's 17-yard throw to Herndon was initially called a touchdown, but it was ruled after a video review that the tight end's heel went out of bounds at the 1. Darnold went in on a quarterback sneak on the next play for the first rushing score of his career, making it 27-17.


"I got to play better," said Darnold. The rookie will have another tough task playing Vikings division rival the Chicago Bears.
