RobbRiddick Posted October 13, 2023 Share Posted October 13, 2023 This is so funny. Diggs threw a tablet on the ground in frustration. We saw Bilichick throw a phone and people just laughed about it. We saw Daboll throw a tablet last week and there were a few comments but nothing like this. This has been discussed everywhere, just a desperate attempt to keep the Allen Vs Diggs rhetoric going. I swear between this and that singer Travis Kelce may or may not be screwing, and all the crap in between, the NFL is really nothing more than a bad reality TV show at this point with a few football games during the commercials 7 3 4 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mango Posted October 13, 2023 Share Posted October 13, 2023 I mean, he stormed out of the building after the Bengals game. Then there was the whole hoopla around camp. The next time Brady or Bill refuse to meet with the team after a bad game give me a call. I’m glad it’s going well. But this isn’t just about tossing a tablet. It’s about those two large gaffes and now everything else is being piled on. It doesn’t mean everything is a sign of something terrible happening. I think the London thing was a total nothing burger. But Stef has also done some things to create some smoke, so people are quick to yell fire. I wish it would go away. I don’t think this moment was a big deal. But I also get why he is under the microscope. It is what it is. All we can do is create enough good credit to make it go away. 2 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya Digg? Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 With so many sports channels, podcasts, etc doing 24/7 coverage of the NFL they need something to talk about. Unfortunately it seems talking about Josh and Stef’s relationship and Diggs in general gets these outlets views and clicks. If it didn’t they wouldn’t talk about it. We know it’s overblown but nationally unfortunately it’s a story 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw Ryan at the ASU vs USC game earlier this year. His boy plays DB for the Sun Devils. He came down our aisle to get to the seat near the sideline to give some love to his boy, slapped his helmet, “go get ‘em son. I love you” Said hi to a bunch of us sitting there. Just a cool interaction I thought I’d post. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a Coach, you have to do better. Especially with Daniel Jones.” That was the talking point on WFAN and the local twittersphere. They’re not wrong. For his passion, there’s a guy that gets intimidated by that, and underperforms. As a Coach, I see that in my kids. Some of the boys talk a lot, and they bark, and they get pumped up that way. Other boys don’t respond to that. They get into their own heads, and worry about that being directed at them if they screw up. Now, these are boys, and the NFL is grown ups, but Im not sure it’s all that different. I love it though. I love that Allen and Diggs are together. That’s very rare in this era of football. I’m glad it’s our guys! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billieve420 Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 (edited) I don’t have an issue with Digg’s actions. He is passionate guy who wants to win. However, he has to realize it will result in questions being brought up not only to him but also his teammates/coaches which becomes a distraction.

There are more than a few better players in the league who don't resort to acts of drama (throwing helmets, tablets, shouting at QB) to reveal their passion. Simply put, "the media" understands Diggs's MO....and he delivers for them. Really, what else can Diggs expect from at this point?? Someone needs to tell him "yeah, we see the passion and appreciate it, but act like a pro". It's clear this won't be McD. Maybe Pegula calls him in or something. 1 1 1 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diggs is BASICALLY a member of this site. People on this site react the same way to certain things that Dorsey/McDermott/Beane does everyday with their comments. The only difference is that we don't constantly have a camera on us. 😎. I, personally, love his passion!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brady threw tablets. Rodgers threw hissy fits on the sidelines. Jordan punched teammates in the face. Bird/Magic got into scrums and even got coaches fired.

Ethan in Cleveland Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 Call it what it really is. It's racism 101. Angry black man versus passionate white man. OBK kicks a net- he is out of control. Brady yells at his o-line he is a leader. Diggs can't control his emotions and takes it out on a tablet. Belichick does the same and throws a phone. If any black coach did what Trent Dilfer did two weeks ago he would never work again. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see a problem with that Jordan was the best player coming out of college. Pippen turned into a star--but if you were around then you would understand the dynamic. If not then watch The Last Dance and get back to me. How many other teams at that time does Pippen be the alpha and become a HOFer? Jordan and the Bulls had won 3 in a row before Rodman showed up. Brady and NE had won 3 SBs before Gronk was in college. They won another with Gronk on IR. Kicker? They won 3 SBs with a more accurate kicker after Viniteri left. H had HOF Law and Seymour for the first 3 SBs only. 2 hours ago, BillsPride12 said: So Jordan and those guys didn't demand any greatness from others until after they already won a championship? C'mon man, make it make sense! Jordan could back that up right away. That's the way he was. But he didn't exactly have the same cast and crew for all 6 championship years. HE made those guys champs. Pippen was notoriously soft, Rodman was poorly controlled. Both bended to Jordan's will. Brady could not demand greatness until he had rings. That should already make sense to you, given who he was when he entered that first game. What's the hard part here? Diggs isn't doing anything like that. He's not even the best player on his team. The guy who is the best player has to watch these antics and then explain them to the press after. The press didn't create these tantrums. But they sure do lap them up---it's all part of the entertainment. But if you can point to where, by doing these things, Diggs is "being a leader", I'm here to learn.
