Josh Allen officially etched his name in the Buffalo Bills’ record books last week, vaulting past Andre Reed and Thurman Thomas to claim the top spot on the franchise’s all-time touchdown list. That’s a huge one locked down, but if you think the Bills are done making history this season, you’ve got another thing coming. James Cook is on the verge of a big career milestone, Greg Rousseau is climbing the sack leaderboard, and Dawson Knox has a couple of chances to make us rewrite the record books. Allen, of course, isn’t finished with his chase either. We’re talking sure things, good bets, and superhuman feats all coming up.
James Cook Is About to Hit a Career Mark, No Sweat
First up, let’s talk about James Cook. This dude needs just 20 rushing yards against the Los Angeles Rams to hit 4,700 for his career. Seriously, 20 yards! He hasn’t finished a single game this season with fewer than 75 rushing yards, so unless he decides to take a knee for the entire game, this one is basically a done deal. We’re practically ready to carve this one into stone. Cook’s been a beast, and watching him snag this milestone is gonna be sweet.
Allen, Knox, and Rousseau Eyeing More Milestones
Then there’s Josh Allen again, who’s not just breaking franchise records, he’s eyeing NFL history. He’s currently tied with Priest Holmes for 16th place all-time in NFL rushing touchdowns with 86. One more against the Rams gives him sole possession of that spot. And let’s be real, Allen running one into the end zone? That’s almost as guaranteed as Cook’s 20 yards. But why stop at one? Allen kicked off the season with three straight two-touchdown games. If he can get back to that insane pace, two rushing TDs against L.A. and another two next week would put him at 90 for his career, tying him with legends Eric Dickerson and Curtis Martin. Yeah, “not asking for much here” is an understatement, but with Allen, you never know!
Dawson Knox is also looking to make some noise. He’s only 13 receiving yards away from passing James Lofton on Buffalo’s all-time receiving yards list. Knox sits at 2,724 yards, while Lofton is at 2,736. One good catch, that’s it, and Knox moves into 16th place in franchise history. Now, his 7.5 receiving yards per game average this season isn’t exactly lighting the world on fire, but for 13 yards, one play could easily seal the deal.
And finally, “Groot” himself, Greg Rousseau, is just half a sack behind Darryl Talley on Buffalo’s all-time list with 38 career sacks. Just one sack against the Rams would push him past “Spider-Man” Talley and into eighth place in franchise history. The Bills’ record book is about to get a whole lot more Marvel-ous.
Monday night against the Rams isn’t just another game, it’s a chance to rewrite the record books multiple times over. Who’s ready for some history?
