There was no overreaction. You seem to be confusing me with other posters. I never said to cut him or fine him or anything of that sort. All I said is that he is spiraling down a bad path (from yelling at his QB in the Cinci loss, to taking Bills stuff off his social media, to skipping voluntaries, to unfollowing the team, to leaving practice, etc) and that the Bills and PSE’s public relations team would try to cover it up once it’s smoothed over. And I was correct every step of the way. Zero overreaction. Those who overreacted were the ones who wanted him gone from the team, which was obviously never happening.

That’s where semantics come into play. Obviously it’s all football related. Whether he doesn’t like the scheme/plays, or doesn’t like the play caller (Dorsey), or has an issue with Allen not being present in the Bengals loss, it’s all football matters. But it can be spun from another angle as well, to say, “well those are personal issues because they don’t take place on the actual football field”. So it’s a semantics game.

I don’t think it was spill over. I believe it was a purposeful comment. A warning shot. I think what will eventually come out, maybe not for a year even as people tend to not go into detail when they’re still on the roster, is that Diggs stormed out after a heated conversation. McDermott then fired the shot across the bow. Purposefully. PR is putting the toothpaste back into the bottle by coming up with the narrative that it was an “excused” absence. Which obviously doesn’t make much sense since McDermott was asked yesterday whether it was an excused absence (oops). But when you own the media in town, you can steer the direction of the talk in the way that you want. And with so many diehard fans willing to believe anything they say, it doesn’t really matter what McD said in that press conference. McD could have said “I want to cut him right now” and they would easily find their way out of it due to the PSE-owned media and homers
