Cook’s 31 total touches were a team-high (not counting Cousins or center Garrett Bradbury), as he helped the Vikings rumble for 136 total yards on the ground on 40 carries.
Cook said he was ready to carry the load in the Superdome.
“It’s the biggest moment, the biggest game,” Cook said. “We worked hard all season. In the big moment … you have to want the ball.
“I knew I couldn’t get it every play — you saw what Adam and Rudy did there at the end — but I definitely want the ball,” Cook added.
The sixth-seeded Vikings will now play at the top-seeded 49ers on Saturday in San Francisco. Kickoff is at 3:35 p.m. (CT).
With Cook in the mix, anything could be possible for the Vikings on offense.
“It’s a special team, man,” Cook said. “We can continue to be whatever we want to be, I’ve been saying that all year.
“We control what we want to do, we control our destiny,” Cook added. “We took care of Game 1, now look to Game 2. But it’s one game at a time.”
