5.) James Cook has a career game vs. Cincinnati Bengals

The Buffalo Bills have been able to get a run game going this season without the lead being quarterback Josh Allen. There were high hopes for James Cook heading into the season, and he has been a contributor for the Bills in the first half of the season.

If you take out his Week 5 performance where the Bills struggled to get anything going against the Jacksonville Jaguars (5 carries for -4 yards), Cook has had double digit carries and averaged 70 rushing yards a game. In addition, he has only had one game where he did not get involved with the pass-attack.

His best game statistically was in Week 2 against the Las Vegas Raiders (17 carries for 123 rushing yards, along with 4 catches for 36 yards). He now goes up against a Bengals defense that is near the bottom of the league when it comes to stopping the run (giving up almost 140 yards per game on the ground).

With this being a primetime game and the Buffalo offense looking more promising in terms of running the ball than they did the last time they faced the Bengals, Cook has a high ceiling and has a chance for a career day against the Bengals.
