70%

The % that The Capt'n has completed of his passes to Diggs and Thielen; accounting for 991 yards, six touchdowns and no interceptions.
That's pretty good stuff right there. As much as the defense has struggled, the tie in GB and a drubbing by the Bills haunt, there is some very good things with this team. 
Cousins is top of the list. All I could have hoped for and he's his own worst critic too. Well done Vikings front office.  Brass balls move kicking 3 QB's to the curb for 1.

No better attribute for a WR than the ability to get open in the NFL.

just imaginr how good this will get when:  

OL finds the right 5 on the line
the running game becomes meaningful
defense corrects back to say the top 3rd of the league

we almost made it out of that season gauntlet 3-2 going on the road vs 3 of the top 4 NFC favorites. take advantage of the softer part of the schedule and get to 6-2-1

Kirk is playing well, there isn't any questioning that.  But the defenses in the NFL has been neutered to ensure the success of the passing game.  So far in the 2018 season there are 7 QBs with a 70% or higher completion rate(the highest being 77.9%)    2017... had one QB.  2016 had three, the highest was 71.6.  The next season the league had a 70+% QB would be in 2011 with one again, and again one in 2009... same player(Brees) tops these list of 70 "percenters" except for in 2016 when it was our Sam Bradford. 

Cousins led the league in 2015 with 69.3% but went down the next two years while with Washington.  67% in 2016 and 64.3% in 2017.  Having Diggs and Thielen will definitely help with this stat number for him but I think the league has helped all QBs with the rule changes.  And I don't like it.

Troy Williamson had a knack for getting open. Just couldn't catch the damn ball.
