James Cook rushed six times for 20 yards in the Bills’ Week 14 loss to the Rams, adding two catches for nine yards.
Cook simply got gamescripted out of this one. The Bills tried to establish the run early, but the Rams’ defensive line bottled up Cook, and then the Bills were down two scores in the blink of an eye. With Buffalo throwing the ball in the second half, there was a lot more Ty Johnson on the field, which led to the subpar effort from Cook. We wouldn’t read too much into the poor game; however, it is noteworthy that Johnson took so many snaps with the Bills playing from behind. That will sap some of Cook’s value if the Bills get into negative gamescripts again.
