Diggs coming back to Highmark Sunday Night

[PoundingDog]

Even though he may not be HIM any more from NFL perspective, but you can bet he wants to be HIM for one night. And you know Vrable and the Pats team would love to make him right. 

 

I hope he does not do what he did, as a Buffalo Bill, scoring a TD in NE in 2021 where he pointed out several fans and told them to shut the f*** up! 

 

He also could show the kind side by playing catch with kids in warm up, though I won't bet on that.

He said some really nice things about the bills fan base this week. But I voted 0. I wonder if he will pass out the pink coke in the lots pre-game 

[EssexBill]

I was happy when Diggs left because the drama had become too much, but I don’t have anything massively against him as it’s a business at the end of the day and I’m also not aware of him talking s**t about the bills fan base. 

 

That said, I hope Rapp is saving up a missile just for him 😈

[Pete]

BOO!

[The Cincinnati Kid]

I feel like he is more likely to punch someone and get ejected than score a TD. Could be that both happen in the same play. 🤷‍♂️ I could see him getting blown up by Rapp and start jawing and swinging. 

[H2o]

He'll score a single TD with Tre matched up against him.

I hope fans greet him warmly. We all know how it ended, but Diggs was a big part of the turn around. He didn’t have much tread left on the tires when it ended anyway, so it was best for both parties.

Yeah, I hope the fans don't boo Diggs. We aren't Philly fans are we? He was a great player for the Bills.

[HOUSE]

He should wear out his welcome any day now in New England 

[GaryPinC]

I would give him a Wimbledon clap.  I hope the overall crowd response is more positive than negative. 

 

I know we all wished coming to Buffalo would morph him into a more caring human being, but in what reality did anyone not know we were getting a narcissist and diva?

 

I was ok with it because sometimes you need that, even though he cared about his career and legacy first, he was also willing to help his mates and pull his team along with him.  He at least recognized the importance of team to his success.

 

He was instrumental to helping Josh develop until Josh outgrew him.  It all worked out.

 

I hope and like to think Diggs obtained a little wisdom, though he may not admit it.  For a waning receiver obsessed with Canton and Superbowls, he has to have a small recognition he really blew it forcing his way out of here.

👏👏

I can’t believe “3+” is an option in your poll…lol

 

Look, Diggs was a huge part of Buffalo’s resurgence and Allen’s growth.  I don’t begrudge him anything and have great memories of his time as a Bill.

 

[Process]

Diggs should and will be booed. It's sports. It's competition. He left on bad terms. Criticized the QB. Criticized the fans. None of it is a big deal. Doesn't mean we don't appreciate what he did here.

 

Hopefully after he retires he makes up with Allen, maybe comes and tailgates at a game. For now kick his ass. Should be fun.  

[ChronicAndKnuckles]

This game scares me. New coach wants to make a statement that things in the AFCE will be different. I expect them to throw everything they have at the Bills, but ultimately come up short. Diggs is their best offensive weapon and will be as motivated as he’s ever been to have a great game against the team where he had the most success.
 

Hopefully, they don’t F around and double cover him. I would put Benford on their #2 option Boutte. Then double cover Diggs with Tre White & whoever. Out of everyone on the roster, Tre White is the most familiar with Diggs and played with him the longest. He knows his tendencies and I think Buffalo should take advantage of that. 
 

To answer the question. I think Diggs will have a “Diggs” type game. 8 receptions for 90 yards and a TD.

Oh man. Diggs will most definitely get booed big time. Maybe even a Bildo launched at him. Every Bills fan I know can’t stand him. Sucks bc he could’ve been a beloved figure in Buffalo. Trash talking Allen was the nail in the coffin. That’s a big “no no.”

I hope fans don't boo him - that's more likely to light a fire in him. Just ignore him, he hates not being the center of attention.

Here’s the thing I don’t get, and it’s just my personality, so I know I’m in the minority. Allen seems like a great guy, and I root for him as much as any Bills fan. With that said, whatever went on between Allen and Diggs isn’t my issue as a fan. Diggs played well for us, and we continue to succeed without him. Just as in real life, I don’t need to hold a grudge against one guy because I like the other dude.

I’ll treat like I would any opponent

 

Also, we should all wear shoes Sunday night as a protest to Mack Hollins

I get it and I dont hold a grudge either, but Diggs is usually the common denominator in these types of situations. Got ran out of Minnesota and Buffalo. The Texans didn’t want him either for whatever reason despite trading a 2nd round pick for him.

I voted 1. I think he gets a short TD reception. Vrabel likes to try and "stick it" to teams. Example: him trying a "home run throwback" against the Bills. I think the Pats will have some play earmarked for Diggs to score. Being that Diggs has primarily played slot for them, I'm curious to see him go up against Taron.
