My favorite thing about Cook from the game was the graphic they used for him.  Looks like they didn't know what he looked like with a smile and just tried something.

What are you talking about that is him smiling.

James Cook did not win Player of the Week in the UK. Sigh...

James Cook and Kyren Williams WILL lead the league at some point in their career. Special young talents.

3 yards shy of 1000 rushing yards for Cook!!!

He was the Grinch this week. Hoping he takes care of the football better.

From Hero to Zero in 60 damned minutes.

 

Let's hope he was suffering lingering effects from his mid-week illness.

Teams will tug at the ball EVERYTIME he carries it!! They clearly don't think he's strong enough.

Needs to hold onto the rock better first.  Sleep with the damned thing or carry it around with you, Cookie.

Let’s not forget 2 gimme dropped TD passes vs Eagles and Cowboys 

 

As good as he’s been he’s also had some concerning moments that could be costly in the playoffs if they continue.

[DuckyBoys]

he doesnt wrap up the ball in the scrum  Always has the off hand out to break his fall  Teams going to really get after it the way they attacked Josh as a ball carrier

He's a gift and a curse 😂

I would appreciate it if he would not fumble the football

Yeah fumbles and drops galore now that he is getting more usage.   I guess he was sick this week but if you are too sick to catch or hold onto the ball then stay on the porch.

"This season, Cook ranks 11th in the entire league in carries (208), and only three players on the Bills roster have been targeted more; as a result, he's become Buffalo's first 1,000-yard rusher since 2017, while his 1,471 scrimmage yards rank fourth in the NFL."

 

Kinda amazing. And shows you how much this is a passing league when Cook — who doesn't appear to be carrying the ball a ton — is top 11th in the league in carries.

There’s always something you can work on
 

In college didn’t get this many carries
