If any discussion is to be had, it should be surrounding why the Bills aren’t able to regularly push the ball down the field in the intermediate/deep range. Lots of layers to this. Diggs is a factor, but him as an issue is not one. Until we need to pass to win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo03 Posted December 24, 2023 Share Posted December 24, 2023 (edited) People that say he's done don't take into consideration the guy had 5 100 yard receiving games on the first 7 games. You don't go from being elite to not having it anymore in the same season. Something is wrong but it's not him being done. I really wonder if he is just mentally not in the game for some reason. I have noticed he doesn't really seem to have the fire anymore and maybe he wants out and he figures doing what he is doing is his best way out after the season. He's being very uncharacteristic with dropping balls and fumbling so to me it's mental and the comments from him brother after the Denver game he "needs to get out of here" doesn't just come out of thin air. I believe they have discussed it. And maybe it's on his mind Edited December 24, 2023 by Buffalo03 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no load management in must win games. Something is off. I don't know if it's injury, change of coordinators, the brain telling the body he turned 30, or defenses finally cracking the code on how to contain him. They need to figure it out fast though as he needs to be their number one weapon if this team both makes the playoffs and makes a legitimate run. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr.Sack Posted December 24, 2023 Share Posted December 24, 2023 Diggs is not particularly athletic, nor is he a burner. Any lost step or half step explains the productivity drop off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koufax Posted December 24, 2023 Share Posted December 24, 2023 6 hours ago, DuckyBoys said: think hes trying to play hurt He is hurt. First play of the game his neck and after that play he was also limping a little coming on and off the field. He is awesome and Josh missed him twice on big plays and he still made some key plays and got open on some others where the ball didn’t get to him. Also Gabe and others were open as Diggs again got extra attention. Bills win and Diggs is a great player and a gamer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SydneyBillsFan Posted December 24, 2023 Share Posted December 24, 2023 I don't think he's too far off his best, it's just that the margin for error in the NFL is so small. Needs a big confidence booster against the Pats so he is in the right frame of mind for the fish. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may be over analyzing this but on the Josh Allen interception, the cut that Diggs made on that safety was not crisp at all, in fact it was a very rounded cut and didn’t come close to giving the defender a tough route to cover hence the lack of separation. I think he is hurt as well, that’s the only plausible explanation to his play over the past month or so. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobobonators Posted December 24, 2023 Share Posted December 24, 2023 I agree with the injury theory. Diggs taking himself out so frequently, for multiple plays in a series, for the last 5-6 weeks leads me to believe it’s an injury and not something like Diggs is “losing a step” Diggs would never come out of this offense in the past. Ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoCal Deek Posted December 24, 2023 Share Posted December 24, 2023 While I still believe he needs to suck it up, sitting in the stadium last night it’s clear that he isn’t right. You can see it when he ‘runs’ off the field, taking himself out of the game. He appears to have a significant hitch in his get-along. It’s got to be an ankle or a knee. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m just here to comment about the coaching staff. It’s the same coaching staff that keeps trotting NON Miller out there to do nothing but get blocked out of every single play and then stand up and watch the play unfold while he thinks about how he wants to assault his Gf again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He isn’t running full speed on any play right now. His effort anfter he knew it was underthrown was minimal at best. I’m guessing it’s because he can’t cut on that ankle/knee. Our #1 receiver is clearly hurt. His longest catch yesterday was for ELEVEN yards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ball was lollipopped a few yards short of Diggs, who had beat his man by 2 steps. There are plays to critique when it comes to Diggs, but that’s not one of them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RunTheBall Posted December 24, 2023 Share Posted December 24, 2023 I’ve been staying this for 5 weeks. He definitely tweaked something, we will find out after the season. He’s been playing the very good soldier despite his stats tanking. That doesn’t bode well for the playoffs IMO. Brady really needs to get Kincaid, Shakir, Knox and Davis more involved regularly in the passing game. We’ve got 2 games to figure it out assuming we make the playoffs.
