James Cook's Kamara-esque game...(edit:new discussion on page 4)


Special K

Recommended Posts

10 carries 58 yards

 

5 catches 83 yards 1 TD

 

I remember reading somewhere that James Cook said in an interview that he wants to model his game after Alvin Kamara.....well he sure did a good job of that today!

 

Having a dynamic RB that can both run and catch passes out of the backfield is the perfect type of RB for a QB like Josh Allen.

 

I hope Cook continues to grow and improve, and that this game was the first step in his becoming that Kamara-esque RB for the Bills he wants to be!!!

Felt Brady got away from run game for some reason. Chiefs got pass rush going .. enough of the wasted sideways bubble crap screens. 

 

Especially if Diggs is going to drop every single one of them.

Screens are about numbers. You see the Chiefs do it right that one play. 5 blockers and 2 defenders. We’re so often outnumbered on ours. 
 

It’s basic football and the main thing Belichick’s dad talks about in his book. Fundamental knowledge.

I have no problems with screens .. Bills just can’t do it well.

Cook is the first Bill since Thurman Thomas to be that dual threat.  Of course Thurman was also great in every other aspect of the game as well.  He could maybe give Cook a few pointers on pass pro.

We ran that wr screen 6 times. It worked once.  This isn't college, NFL dbs are way too fast.

Yeah, and that is probably a Joe Brady, legendary college OC problem.

Hopefully he learns from the results today.

WR screens work against us because we play soft coverage on the outside, there’s space for the opposing receivers and blockers to work. Conversely, we can’t get them to work against teams like the Chiefs that play up and challenge receivers at the LoS. Theres no space to go to work after catching the ball, there’s a defender right there.
