Bills vs Dolphins anytime touchdown scorer pick: James Cook (+170)
Line available at FanDuel Sportsbook at time of publishing.
Quarterback Josh Allen commands so much attention from opposing defenses that the natural eye overlooks James Cook. Cook, in his third year as a pro (second as a starter), is coming off a season in which he averaged 4.6 yards per carry — ranking him in the top 15 in the league. But he only found the endzone 6 times and twice on the ground. On the other hand, Allen rushed in 15 touchdowns last year and already has two under his belt through the first week. Let’s hope Miami is locked in on Allen keeping the ball, resulting in Cook walking into the endzone.
After losing Stefon Diggs and Gabe Davis this offseason, the load on Cook’s shoulder got much heavier. He needs to be a catalyst for this offense so they can succeed in what is presumed to be a tight AFC East race. He has all the tools to be a bellcow back for Buffalo, even with the addition of Ray Davis in this year’s draft. Fresh off 19 carries, I still expect Cook to get utilized a ton on a short week — especially in the red zone.
