He said "...he was throwing to Duke Williams!..." and said his name in a kind of disgusted/insulting way.

Yeah. Like "Who?" and what had Duke done to become a household name?

 

He was absolutely correct.

In a media environment where BS over the top and undeserved positive hype is the standard it was a outrageous and nasty comment. Griese just put all of this years success on Diggs. Diggs has been awesome, no doubt and is the best receiver here since Moulds.  But Griese unfairly dissed Duke who played what, 5 games? Maybe Duke might have performed better had he been played more. I dont care about Benjamin because he was an outright useless and lazy but Duke busted his ass to be on this team and contributed last year. In addition, Griese overlooks Josh's huge leap in quality and completely forgets and totally disrespects the great seasons that Brown and Beasley had. I really hope Griese apologizes. It was a real ahole thing to say.

Unnecessary shade last night.   Let’s show our love Buffalo.   What can we do?  


 

Totally disagree.  What he said was 100% correct - maybe a bit mean, but correct.

 

Diggs and Davis versus Duke Williams - a practice squad extra.  
 

was it necessary- nope, but that does not make it wrong.  The team recognized they needed more: Diggs, Davis, Hodgkin, etc - they knew relying on Williams was bad.  Williams wasn’t even the call up with Brown out - it was Kumerow. 
 

Should tell you what you need to know.

Meh...

 

You're going to both extremes here in the same sentence.

 

Griese won't be apologizing for anything.

Maybe let him be #14 to catch a TD this week? Idk. I like Duke, and I agree the comment may have been worded harshly, but the point itself isn’t necessarily wrong. 
 

Duke had a lot put on his shoulders and while he had a few good catches, he had some game changing drops too. I’d be happy if the comment puts a chip on his shoulder and helps him perform of he’s called up.

I thought Griese was very funny last night.  “Well y’all wanted to see some Jarrett Stidham”😃😃😃😃

All the Stidham talk has been dumb to me, honestly. The guy's not a rookie. The Pats know exactly what they have in him. They didn't need to play him, except for the sake of showing mercy to Cam.
