Offense was playing like ***** at that time. Diggs wasn’t involved or even targeted. 
 

he was frustrated, he talked to the coach instead of throwing a tantrum. 
 

it was a thing that happened. Probably significant that it calmed Diggs down and got him a TD. 
 

non-issue. 
 

Agreed. I'm even surprised there is a thread for this ha ha. The offense had zero first downs for a long while and Diggs zero targets at  that point.

Edit I was not at the game sorry

 

 

I was, and I noticed right before the play where he caught the touchdown (when teams were switching personnel), our WR coach was gesticulating wildly for him to get on the field.  😂

How would anyone here know that answer?

 

WE CAN'T KNOW THAT ANSWER

 

 

Are you crazy? This board is full of journalists, coaches, Drs., trainers, political scientists, mind readers and ex players!! Of course WE know the answer, much like WE know Tre is sand bagging the team.

When does our WR coach not gesticulate wildly.

haha.  The part I left out was, Diggs looked a little confused like he wasn’t sure he was supposed to be part of that package.  It turned out okay, though!

Didn’t have enough targets at that point. He was pissed. Thing or not a thing?

It's a thing, but a good thing.  The team needed a spark early on, and I think that premier plays like Diggs stepping up was absolutely huge.

Not a thing. He wasn’t flipping out and it was an incredibly peaceful conversation. And then he caught a TD almost immediately after

Better yet Josh didn't force the ball to him on the first play after the conversation like Lofton suggested.  Josh kept taking what defense was giving.  

[Buddo]

The assumption being made, is that Diggs was complaining, because he hadn't seen the ball at all up till then.

 

It's probably true, but he's also one of the team captains on offense, so it could even have been related to the overall offense.

 

It also looked like a very sensible and mature dialogue, between McDermott and Diggs, with neither being upset by anything the other said.

Josh and Diggs celebrated when running off the field together. 

Thats good to hear.   I found him not running over after the TD odd.

Not nearly a thing, though John Wawrow will probably try to make it one.  

[DrDawkinstein]

The offense and the play calling was absolutely putrid at that point, and our best weapon hadnt seen a single ball thrown his way.

 

Makes total sense.

 

Diggs has proven before that as long as we are winning, he doesnt care about targets. But when we are playing that poorly and he is being ignored, it seems like a quick and easy fix for a sputtering offense.

 

Good for Stefon. I hope he told McD to get a handle on his OC before he loses the entire team.

[DuckyBoys]

whatever McDermott said to him seemed to deflate any animosity His shoulders slumped and it almost looked like he put his head on McDermotts shoulder

Shouldn’t he be? He’s a top 3 WR and wasnt targeted to that point and the O was a disaster

Disagree. 
 

The only way one can have an intelligent comment on Diggs targets is to view the All 22 AND know the play that was called. 
 

Maybe he wasn’t targeted because the primary receiver on the play was open and thrown to. 
 

Maybe he wasn’t targeted because he wasn’t open. 
 

Think it through.

So your assumption is that Diggs was never the primary read, and/or if he was, he was never open?  No chance in hell

Was a thing in Minnesota, it’s why he’s a bill now 😂

McD handled this amazingly. 

[HalftimeAdjustment]

I saw a player talking to the head coach, and both of them trying to find a way win the football game. So, that's a good thing. What's the problem?

[BuffaloBillsGospel2014]

If Diggs wasn't upset at how the offense was going, I'd be more concerned. As a competitor who wants to win every game, it looked like it was eating at Diggs and McDermott did the right thing calming the situation down, kudos to the both of them.

I hope it’s a thing he knows the other receivers flat out suck
