"I haven't reached the mountain top yet. I always aim high. I want five Super Bowl rings," Diggs told DC Magazine in a recent interview. "I want the Hall of Fame. I want the glory. I believe I'm a champion. But, more so, I want to carry some people along with me. I want my brother, Trevon, to have a good career. I want to give my mom a place where she can be comfortable. I want to give people jobs. I want to do more for D.C., my city. The mountain top isn't just for football; it's for life in general. The more people I can help -- that's when I'll look back and know I made a difference."

 

 

Let's hope his wish comes true!

 

Since this article references the same DC Magazine article discussed in this thread, I merged.

 

Couldn't he give his Mom a place where she can be comfortable right now, on the $40M he's earned to date?

Wonder how many of those caught passes last year were of Diggs freelancing and bailing Allen out. Would wager that many of them weren't "by the book".

His statement didn’t mean he is bailing Allen out.  He is saying Allen’s arm is good enough to get the ball there in a hurry when Diggs gets him a window. At the end of the day, it worked and I can’t wait to see more.

How football should be played. Players have become over-coached. Just eliminate the coaching and take it right back to the sand lot. You'd see better football. Less synchronized swimming.

But Diggs will retire before Josh.  There's still time.

In SW Ohio (where OP location says), there's a popular place called, "Wings and Rings". It's like a BW3, but better IMO

Well I do like chicken wings and onion rings 🤔

Unfortunately, for you, it's pigeon wings and toe rings.

I find this acceptable

All-time greats have the chance

 

Peyton played in 4 Super Bowls and could easily have been in 1-2 more if a few things went his way in the playoffs. 

Aaron Rodgers loses in the NFC Title game pretty much every season it seems. 

 

Brady has been in 10 and won 7, at least 2 of which (Seattle and Atlanta) he had no business winning, but you've gotta be in the game to win it!

 

If the Bills can get to 5-6 Super Bowls with Allen and Diggs they'll likely win a few.

Now that it's merged with the other threads quoting the same DC Magazine interview is it less confusing?

this was definitely by the book

 

 

I remember that play said the ball crossed the first down mark and was yelling for a roughing the passing play when the de lead with his head into Josh.

 

Ref must have closed his eyes since he was looking right at Josh

 

Didnt even reach for his flag

If you watch a lot of Diggs routes, they were definitely timed in routes, comebacks, hitches, etc.  He's just soooo good at the top of his routes.

 

I think when Josh says "get open, i'll find you" it's more of when a play breaks down, be creative, get open. He also did that NUMEROUS times, obviously. 

I would like to know what Josh said to Diggs in the arizona game, on the last td

 

Dive baby and I will put it on your fingertips. 

Maybe add a little swagger to it

That was a great throw and catch.  Basically unstoppable.

That play almost gave me a heart attack when Allen grabbed his arm. I told my wife see we can’t have nothing nice

That play gives me a heat attack every time I watch it. Make that two. Once when Josh decides to throw that pass. And a bigger one, right after the excitement of the reception, when Josh comes up looking hurt. So why do I rewatch it every time I come across it?

 

 

BTW, that was a rhetorical question. I know why I watch it.  I'm a Bills fan. And I'm getting ready for the season. OTA for long suffering Bills fans. Feels good not to suffer so much, or so often.

These are on Britt's Instagram story BrittWilll as of ~19 hrs ago, and I'm sure the pup does have a name, but we don't know what it is (yet).  Pretty sure better stalkers than I will find this out in a heartbeat.

 

Edit: Pup is named "Sky".

Haven't seen any photos of Britt kissing Josh on camera like that, that's all I got to say.  Might be a new "pecking order" in the Allen household.

 

 

(the pup is saying "yeah yeah, where are my treats, where is my toy")

He felt something during the second-to-last rep in his left hammy. Plain to see afterwards as he curled his left leg slightly several times. Maybe no big deal, as he kept going, but scary.

 

When I watch him run his routes I'm continuously flinching on behalf of his hammies and groin(s). He's just so sudden and severe with his feints and breaks. When I'm looking for something to worry about unnecessarily I wonder how much longer he can move like that without injury. It's remarkable.
