Buffalo Bills running back James Cook is having a historic season, but Joe Brady and offensive coordinator Pete Carmichael may still be leaving production on the table by not using him enough in the passing game. Through six games, Cook has rushed for 627 yards and six touchdowns on 117 carries, averaging 5.5 yards per attempt. Only O.J. Simpson has recorded more rushing yards through the first six games of a season in Buffalo Bills history. Cook is also the first Bills player since Fred Jackson in 2011 to record at least 700 scrimmage yards and six touchdowns through six games. And he's accomplishing all of this after leading the NFL in rushing last season! But despite his incredible production, there's one area where Buffalo could get even more out of its star running back. James Cook has just 10 receptions for 89 yards this season. Against the Las Vegas Raiders, Cook caught three passes for 58 yards, demonstrating the explosive potential he brings as a receiving threat. With questions surrounding Buffalo's wide receiver depth and DJ Moore's availability, why aren't the Bills getting Cook more involved in the passing attack? Josh Allen already has weapons like Keon Coleman, Khalil Shakir and Dalton Kincaid, but expanding Cook's receiving role could make one of the NFL's best offenses even more dangerous. We examine Cook's historic start, Joe Brady's earlier comments about ball security and why Pete Carmichael should consider giving Cook three to five receiving targets per game. Is Buffalo overlooking one of its most dangerous offensive weapons? #BuffaloBills #BillsMafia #JamesCook Photo Credit: Christopher Trim IMAGN Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
