And the subsequent summer of playing games off the back of it.
He came to work Day 1, voiced his complaints/position to the coach, took 1 day off, showed up the next day and worked his tail off. Everything else is media or fan speculation. It just feels like people want to pigeon hole him as a diva. There's a difference between "me first" and "I want to win".

And overly emotional.
I honestly think this is a problem with the offense at the moment; the three key men in Josh, Diggs and Dorsey are generally emotion first, calm logic second. It can make for a hotbed of over-reaction and spiralling, which results in outcomes like yesterday. Saying that, it was good to see Diggs trying to gee Josh up before one of the final drives (in my tired state can't remember if it was before the last 4Q or OT drive), even if it perhaps came a touch too late.
Honestly - when has he ever been "overly emotional" since he's been on this roster? Was it when the QB didn't mentally show up for a home playoff game? - seems like the correct reaction to me.
-
Diggs is clearly the leader of this team. I don't know why "fans" crap on him. He has combination of the skillset and the drive that we all want in our players. When things are turbulent, he's the one trying to get Josh's head back in it, he was the one trying to get his teammates ready to play after Hamlin went down (and the first one to go to the hospital afterwards). Watching him practice - he works the craft more than any other receiver on the roster. He's Josh's safety blanket.
WR1, TE and S are the positions we don't need to worry about at a week to week basis. They're consistent. All other positions seem to vary greatly on any given week.

Gripes from last night:
Run on 2-15 in OT is horrible.
Not challenging the 3rd down spot that lead to the QB sneak in the 4th was a mistakeThe run Josh up the middle from the shotgun play needs to be torn out of the playbook
Josh needlessly taking hits needs to stop
Kincaid having 26 yards receiving when his O/U was 27.5 was salt on the woundsLikes from last night:
We have the weapons at skill positions on offense to dink dunk and occasionally go for the HRThe pass rush was good
The Jets losing Rodgers has to help us in the season long outlook.That's it - on to next week.

Dorsey is a JOKE. RUN the ball on 2nd and 15 in OT against the freaking Jets run defense? WTF?!?!?
Dorsey to McD: "Hey! We barely have 90 yards rushing... maybe we'll trick them on a this 2nd and 15 in overtime? Might fool them!"
WTF OVER?!?!?!
OC is a joke, OL still SUCKS and Allen looked like "Allen: Year One" THREE passes into double team?!?!?! I'm so pissed off.
Not just run… but run at the one player that has dominated our line all night.

I didn't watch the game - feedback I've seen is that he was in on a lot of plays, had two tackles for loss, but didn't fair well in pass coverage. It seems to be a mixed bag of reviews, which is hardly surprising.

Close game nothing changes - blowout in either direction and the winner is #2 in the league behind a healthy KC.

I took Kincaid's over on receiving yards (+29.5 at +100)
maybe it's the kool-aid, but I'm all over this as well. I like it at 40 yards at +188 too. This just seems like an ideal matchup for his skillset.

Are you watching entire games or condensed games?

Feels like KC doesn’t need Chris Jones at all.
Also people rag on Beane for Boogie Basham, but KC traded DOWN to take Skyy Moore instead of Pickens and yikes he’s awful.
Pickens went 2 picks before they traded up.

Chiefs RT apparently gets a head start every play with the refs blessing.
I came here to say this too

I would much rather do it this way. Buy your unit and fly in for the legs you are interested in. Powerball let me down again. I was thinking of a nice two bedroom, I’m not greedy.
I have family that has done around the world 6 month+ cruises. It absolutely is an alternative to moving to a retirement community in Florida and it is becoming economically more feasible. Being able to board and deboard to me is the key if you're going for multi-year commitment. I'd also love if Amtrak had an option where you could load your car and get on an off at reserved locations.

5 years from now - this will be seen as one a top 5 draft class in this organization.
Shorter will prove to be the best value

I think they need to sign a guy with excellent mobility. Josh hides a lot of O-line sins.
Steaming’ Willie Beamer is available as an UFA

He was on PUP to stary the season. They just brought him off to practice and he took a roster spot for like 3 games or something.
You're right - Mandela Effect... I was certain they botched it thinking he'd be ready week 2.
-
They learned their lesson with Tre last year - they wasted a roster spot with him, when he should have been on the PUP list to start the season too.
- CORRECTION: I'm an idiot and botched this hot take by misremembering recent history. My children are ashamed and I am remorseful.-

It's been free for several years... now $40 off market price. It was one of the few real perks you got as a STH. Ralph is cheap.
I will say, I was happy to get a stadium tour this season (including weight room, locker room, field etc). We used to get post game field passes (even pre-game once), but that's a thing of the past now too. -

Two teams with need at OL have dumped him rather quickly. I don't think we need to be the third.

Greedy Williams - high character, often injured CB... seems like a natural fit.

My suspicion is that he's a freak athlete that was always the "exception" and didn't need to train at his size. Age 30 isn't 22, and he'll need to realize that if he wants to be in this career in 5 years he needs to change what he's always done.
He appears to be an absolute great guy and teammate, but it's time that the team trainers take over.

Whether is sports analysis or entertainment - producers are giving away better content on YouTube, Instagram, Twitter, etc for free. There's no need for a fan to be glued to ESPN for updates and analysis. There are simply too many sources of information now for that model to work.
Terry Pegula is ALLEGED to have said something very foul in the Jim Trotter lawsuit against the NFL
in The Stadium Wall
Posted · Edited by DasNootz
Here's the verbiage from the actual complaint:
D. The NFL Takes No Action in Response to Racist Conduct by Buffalo Bills Team Owner Terry Pegula; Complaints “Swept Under the Rug.”
125. On September 3, 2020, a large NFL Media zoom meeting was held which included approximately 40 newsroom employees. The purpose of the meeting, during the middle of the pandemic, was to connect people who were not working together in-person and discuss various stories people were working on.
126. During the meeting, an NFL Media reporter described a conversation he had with Buffalo Bills owner Terry Pegula in which Mr. Pegula was speaking about the recent emphasis on social activism by NFL players, and in particular support for Black Lives Matter.
127. As reported, Mr. Pegula stated that, “If the Black players don’t like it here, they should go back to Africa and see how bad it is.” This remark was so offensive and racist that the people in the meeting appeared to be frozen, unsure how to even react.
128. Mr. Trotter would not stand by and spoke up. In front of everyone in attendance, Mr. Trotter asked Mr. Marvel and Mr. Sperry if there was going to be a discussion about what Mr. Pegula had said given that it was so highly offensive and racist. They responded that they would speak to the reporter about it further and decide how to handle the matter.
129. Thereafter, Mr. Trotter sought out Mr. Marvel and Mr. Jurenka on a near weekly basis about what was being done to address Mr. Pegula’s discriminatory remarks. Mr. Trotter was repeatedly brushed off and told that “the league office is investigating it.”
130. However, this went on for months and Mr. Trotter never received any further update beyond this superficial statement. Notably, no one from the NFL’s league office ever reached out to Mr. Trotter to interview him in connection with any supposed “investigation” that was supposedly ongoing. Clearly it was not a priority to investigate an NFL team owner’s discriminatory animus and discriminatory remarks in conversations with employees.
131. Nearly one year after the incident, Mr. Marvel told Mr. Trotter that the league had provided him with a response. He told Mr. Trotter: “New York says it’s an HR matter and that’s the end of it.”
132. Thus, in response to an allegation by an employee (the reporter) and complaint by another employee (Mr. Trotter) that an NFL owner (an employer) made racist remarks that ridiculed Black players (also employees) for their social activism, the NFL did absolutely nothing.
133. Mr. Trotter said to Mr. Marvel, “So we are sweeping this under the rug?” Mr. Marvel responded, “I can only tell you what I’ve been told.”If there is any evidence - he deserves all that is coming.
