Can James Cook run for 2000 yards?

[Buffalo03]

He needs 772 yards and he has 6 games to get it. 

 

He is averaging 111 yards a game this season. He needs to average 128 over the next 6 games

 

Does he get it?

[EmotionallyUnstable]

Unlikely but wow what a season. 

[Aussie Joe]

Davis and Josh gunna vulture him

If he does someone should be fired.

 

We need this guy in January.

Even more incredible considering he is only on the field for ~59% of our offensive plays.

 

To put that into perspective, Jonathan Taylor is on the field for ~85% of the Colts offensive plays.

Bills have 5 games left

I think he could do it but we’re gonna need him healthy and strong for the playoffs I say dont over use him imo

I remember when an RB getting over 1200 was considered a great season. Boy have times changed, I guess the extra game makes a big difference. Hats off to James and the O-Line. Would be incredible if he hit the 2k mark.

James has 1228 yds with 5 games left.

 

Thurman's best year was 1487 in 16 games

 

Times have definitely changed.

[Comebackkid]

how many more times do we play pittsburg?

I think 1800 is reasonable. How much fun is he to watch?  His personality is perfect for our team. When he had that devastating fumble that led to go ahead score, he came out and took the game over. Having him and Josh together for years to come give Bills fans a reason to believe we’re not far from a championship.

We face 2 of the top 10 rush defenses still (Browns and Patriots). Then again, we face the 24th and 25th rush defense still (Eagles and Jets) as well as the 31st ranked rush defense this week in Cincinnati. 

 

If he can have a HUGE game this week...175 yards...then I think he positions himself well. But he really needs to take advantage of the Bengals poor rush D this week.

[Iiiiiiiiive Got a Feeeelin]

I think a synopsis of what is being said here is:

yep he totally could but man it’d be awesome for our other RBs to come on about this time of year and lighten his load and who cares about personal stats it’s all about the Ws

[MJS]

He needs over 150 yards a game for the remaining games to get to 2,000. That ain't happening. Great season, though.

His snap count really isn’t crazy high tbh I think he’s topped 70% of the snaps like three times and even then it isn’t by much.  He’s not far off jahmyr Gibbs usage wise 

Johnathan Taylor has never had below 70% and is pretty frequently in the 90s.

I love Jimbo and think it would be awesome if got to 2,000 yards, but after last night, keep sharing the rock with Ray Ray.

He looked like his old self last night.  It was all a beautiful thing to watch.

Nah, he'd have to average more than he's doing now, and he's doing great. They'll rest him when they can.

 

Can't see it.

 

Great season, though.

[Kelly to Allen]

He might go for 200 vs Cincinnati

Cook’s not going to get to 2K, but the bigger story (IMO) is the resurgence of Ray Davis as a legitimate change of pace back.  How many double-digit runs did he have on Sunday…four?  I’m not sure what was going on earlier in the season but he has regained the look we were encouraged by last season.  It seems to have started with his kick returns against Tampa…in any event, this run game for Buffalo behind Jimbo and Ray-Ray is a freaking monster.
