There would be a lot of attention on how Falcons quarterback Kirk Cousins plays this week regardless of the team's opponent, but there will be even more eyeballs on him because the team will be facing the Vikings.

The cries for Atlanta Falcons first-round pick Michael Penix Jr. hit a fever pitch after Kirk Cousins tosses four interceptions in a loss to the LA Chargers.

The Falcons and Cousins haven't kept that momentum as he prepares to return to his previous NFL home in Minnesota. There was a common theme to his interceptions against the Chargers. The defensive backs consistently anticipated his passes, stepping in front of possible targets for interceptions.
