Mango Posted June 14, 2023 Share Posted June 14, 2023 10 minutes ago, HappyDays said: No but they are hoping to find out tomorrow. Right now they think it is just Diggs being dramatic and turning a small issue into a big one. But they don't know the exact nature of the issue. 3 minutes ago, Mango said: Diggs is in full on prove a point mode. But I agree, I’m not even sure Diggs is exactly sure of what the point is anymore. Right now I think he’s locked in on “I am HIM, so you better start treating me like HIM”. Feels like I nailed it!

Mango Posted June 14, 2023 Share Posted June 14, 2023 1 minute ago, Beck Water said: That would kind of be a shame, since I was hoping there was a bit of truth to the takes from the folks who said Josh was Done with Diggs diva behavior and Diggs was going to have to adjust. Josh's presser pretty much didn't align with that take. I actually thought it did. The full take was that Josh made a pattern of changing his behavior not to upset Diggs. I thought Josh’s presser was full on walking on egg shells and making sure Stef was happy. Which is where the Diggs/Allen diva rumor started.

BrainwashedBillsFan Posted June 14, 2023 Share Posted June 14, 2023 Isn’t the rumor that the night before the Bengals playoff game last year, Josh’s gf found out that Josh got some bartender pregnant and they had a huge fight and he got no sleep thats why he played bad. I’m guessing Diggs knew all about this and blames Josh for screwing up another year from getting to the big dance. Not that it was Josh’s fault the year prior obviously. Diggs is extremely competitive and knows his opportunities are dwindling as he gets up there in age. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snappysnackcakes Posted June 14, 2023 Share Posted June 14, 2023 We’re gonna need to keep an extra vet WR this season as they’ll not be able to rely on Diggs whatsoever for the entirety of this campaign. He’s emotionally unstable. The moment it crosses a line, suspend him and hope it galvanizes the team. Talk about the ultimate Hail Mary… Screw you man, grow up. Crapping away an opportunity for complete nonsense. And whatever it is, unless Allen knocked up his girl, it’s nonsense. The past season is over, it’ll be a new team with 15% turnover, at least. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BADOLBILZ Posted June 14, 2023 Share Posted June 14, 2023 2 hours ago, SectionC3 said: I think @BADOLBILZ was the poster. It was never specified. But one can draw his own conclusions based upon recent tabloid fodder. That news, I suspect, relates to the OPPD visit to the Allen homestead at some point toward or at the end of the season. Yeah I felt strongly at the time that something was up with Allen that was leaving him distracted and unfocused. I thoroughly remember being in that state in my early 20's and what it was about. I really didn't see that coming with Allen. She wouldn't have been my cup of tea in his situation but he sure seemed pretty settled in with his GF. If the rumors are even remotely true what was going on was even worse than I thought. With all the life and death sh!t that happened in December and January it kinda' got lost in the shuffle. It very well could have something to do with this Diggs situation. Diggs has a baby mama and unabashedly juggles multiple women at the same time and still is the same guy on the field every week. So maybe he has lost some respect for JA considering how compromised Allen was over some female related drama. I can see Diggs brooding over this with the like minds he probably surrounds himself with all offseason and just getting angrier over how badly Allen handled himself and questioning whether he deserves the say in the organization that he has while Diggs opinion isn't taken into account much as a WR. That macho BS would track with Allen's language about the situation and McDermott's frustration about having to listen to Diggs telling him his rationale at length and not having some sort of resolution still. 5 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

extrahammer Posted June 14, 2023 Share Posted June 14, 2023 I think this is all: the Bills gave Diggs a lot of space, now he's back and they're just hashing out frustrations he has, which I believe are rightfully so. I'm curious how the next 24 hours go. And I remind myself make up sex is the best sex. 🏆🏆🏆 If Diggs wanted out, he wouldn't have waited this long and he wouldn't have made himself present in the building. To me, the fact he did make himself shows they just need to simply address some things and get on the same page, which they appear to be working on. I'm fine with giving him some of that autonomy, I really am, because I do believe he's the best WR in the league. Last year I kept repeating that and everyone kept coming after me with replies about Cooper Kupp even though Kupp was putting up less than Gabe Davis numbers. I have Bickering Bills vibes with this and let's all look forward to the makeup sex. 😇 Have a beer, smoke some lettuce, and enjoy the weather. The Bills still won 13 games last year with all the bs.

That is basically what my source believes. Hopefully more clarity tomorrow. Honestly, the path started during the season. There were multiple times during the regular season that Diggs was visibly upset on the sidelines. Who can forget McDermott consoling him during...I believe it was the first half of the first Miami game. Then he let that CB from the Packers get in his head. Then had a couple more instances where he was upset. It culminated against the Bengals in the playoffs for sure...but there was a ton leading up to it from early on. It's become a pattern of his behavior and it's often dismissed because he "cares too much". In all seriousness at some point if it continues it's fair to be concerned about his mental health. 9 minutes ago, HappyDays said: Weirdly enough this may be the correct answer.

Diggs is extremely competitive and knows his opportunities are dwindling as he gets up there in age. I don't think it has anything to do with Josh, beyond him not going against Dorsey's game plan when things weren't working in the Cinci game. Ultimately, I think it's between him and McDermott and maybe Dorsey. I think McDermott probably strong handed Diggs when he arrived because of his actions and it re-opened old wounds and he peaced out for the day. The thing that really has me thinking it's a McDermott thing is that he consistently lies to the press or downplays things to specifically not cause distractions. He could have easily said that Diggs arrived but then was excused for the rest of the day for personal reasons. He specifically chose to throw him under the bus. That's very out of character for McDermott and speaks to a personal issue to me. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully more clarity tomorrow. he’s a ferocious competitor but also not particularly mature… that he’s dug himself in deep over something dumb and doesn’t have an easy path to save face is totally believable, whether it’s conscious on his part or not. the art will be giving him an off ramp. I’m not sure McD or Josh made particularly great comments if that’s an accurate assessment but we will see. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
