Nextmanup Posted January 22, 2023 Author Share Posted January 22, 2023 Well now that I've actually seen this incident, it does look like Josh is ignoring Diggs, b/c the coach sitting next to him heard him clearly enough to look up at him twice, and Josh seems to have chosen to just ignore him. Maybe he's thinking "Oh this is just Stephon being Stephon, he'll calm down in a bit." These things happen between teammates from time to time in all sports. I wouldn't put much into this. It is kind of interesting though; I missed it the whole thing live! Too much typing in the game thread! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillMafia716ix Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 Diggs should be yelling at Ken Dorsey. Too bad he’s up there hiding in the booth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well his regular season numbers have been fantastic with the Bills! Has he publicly stated that he's all about a ring at this point or something like that? He should be here next year. The thing is, we need a Diggs #2; it's our biggest need IMO; I've been saying that all year. And then we need to completely re-vamp the OL. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColoradoBills Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 If Diggs is pissed and want to go home let him. This loss is going to be hard on the entire team. The last thing they need is players and coaches worrying about how others are feeling. The postmortem of this season is going to take a long time and needs a deep self-analysis. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes he grabbed his clothes and tried to leave before the rest of the team and coaches even got to the locker room. Duke Johnson had to basically drag him back in and then he left a few min later anyhow. That's pretty bad for a captain 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr.Sack Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 Recalling the 90-93 Bills and remembering how they could morph into a power running team and run over teams at home in the playoffs. That took a quality OL, coaching, and RBs to execute those plays. Clearly the Bills are missing some of those elements.

He's mad that we played like crap and our season ended in this way. I agree this is not the right way to behave, but it just means he really gives a darn, which I LOVE.

I don’t think he had enough time to even think and throw effectively with his offensive line and the plays called. And when he did he was hesitant, like he didn't trust what he saw. Probably too worried about throwing a pick. Bad combo today: Weather, good defensive calls, s##ty blocking. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freddie's Dead Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 (edited) I posted in the GDT that this was not a good look. I had a "Who cares" comment which got some agrees. This is not good news going forward. Diggs should have taken JA aside, but instead he chose to show him up in front of a full house at Highmark and on national TV. Unproductive at best and can only serve to create hard feelings and rip apart the locker room at worst.

Nitro Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 Diggs is emotional but I was on his side today. Allen's throws were off. Diggs could have had a few deep throws. I think that elbow injury affected Allen's mechanics. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDIGGZ Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 I wouldn't be surprised if Diggs makes some ultimatums this off-season. New OC or signing a big time WR. Something.

wvbillsfan Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 I don’t blame Diggs He needs the ball and not just in deep shots.

LittleSammy Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 Good for Diggs, unlike his coaching staff and a large part of the fan base, he is not willing to accept that "close enough was good enough" in the playoffs for yet another year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sean failed this team years ago by putting his own selfish defensive needs (failed DE's) over the good of protecting your #1 asset. And how many DEs/DTs do you take while expending only two Day 1/2 picks on OL-men. Ford and Brown. Both swings and misses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
