Buffalo Rumblings on James Cook
From the article
Last week, Cook needed 363 yards to catch Josh Allen for fourth place on the Bills' all-time rushing list. We pointed out that would require him to break Adrian Peterson's NFL single-game record by 67 yards. Cook responded by running for 154 yards against the Chargers while Allen added 22. So, fine. We'll do the math again. Allen now sits at 4,835 career rushing yards, with Cook at 4,605. That leaves 230 yards between them, meaning Cook needs to outgain his quarterback by 231 yards Sunday to take over fourth place.
STACKED’s take
Needs 231 more yards than Allen to reach 4th all-time; ran 154 vs Chargers, closing 133-yard gap.
Cook needed 363 yards to catch Josh Allen for fourth place on the Bills' all-time rushing list last week; the source noted that would require breaking Adrian Peterson's NFL single-game record by 67 yards. Cook responded by running for 154 yards against the Chargers while Allen added 22. Allen now sits at 4,835 career rushing yards with Cook at 4,605, leaving 230 yards between them. Cook needs to outgain his quarterback by 231 yards Sunday to take over fourth place. The source characterizes this as 'considerably less Superhuman' than the 363-yard gap from the previous week, framing Cook's weekly progress as a 'challenge' rather than an impossible task.
