Diggs throwing his helmet and asking for the ball more

If you listened to the miked up with Knox there’s some chatter that may suggest that. I personally don’t think so however you can see he is a passionate player who wants to win and us happy when the team wins as evidenced by the snow slide with his teamsters.
 

I also think he gets upset when no one else steps up and the offense goes into lulls and he wants the ball not for ego but to will the team to victory.

Yeah, kinda....

 

But at the same time they should be game planning ways to get him touches.

 

  Only Jefferson, Hill and Adam's get more targets. Diggs averages over 10 a game and is on pace for a career high in targets.

 

  Our offense will be at its best when it spreads the ball around to everyone, like Saturday night. 9 different receivers, each with at least 1 catch in the 1st half. Get Gilliam and Shakir involved a little and you can easily bump that to 11.

He’s not a diva, but he’s an “ALPHA” which has me concerned. If he were to start acting like that serial blowtorcher in Miami, I’d have to call him out. Everyone involved can prevent that from happening by giving him the damn ball whenever he wants it. Diggie, don’t get your finger dirty. 

What?

 I don't think it's that, though there could be a little truth to it. I think he's tired of being the only true threat and because of that sees a bunch of double teams throughout the game. You can see the frustration mount as the game goes on.

 

 

there is some truth to that but Dorsey is doing zero to help diggs and he's starting to become a decoy.

I’m 63 and broken down, but if Josh went to McKenzie instead of me down the seam, I’d throw my Depends at him. 

 

 Diggs is far more lethal with the ball and his targets are usually at a higher degree of difficulty than McKenzie, but their catch rate is very similar. I was surprised by that. Diggs 99/142 - 69.7%, McKenzie 40/60 - 66.7%. Knox leads the primary receivers at 74.1%.
