So sad no one gets it! He wants to win and feels we played horrible. He wants to be more involved not less. diggs I'm with you get him the ball!! Also he is holding all accountable. We are to good not to get a ring 

 

Right, because bailing on a mandatory training activity is how you "hold all accountable" and also an effective way to lobby for being more involved.

I have a bridge in Brooklyn for sale, you buying?  Also some well irrigated farmland in the swamps of East Texas.

The points were to address the question, is there another way to view the trade than as win-win?

 

I am not trying to argue as to who Beane would have drafted if he didn't make the trade.

Fair enough.  I just heard someone on the radio earlier make a comment about how "they should have just drafted Jefferson" assuming they knew that he would be as good as he is so the revisionist history was still lingering from that.

Because it was never resolved or figured out. 

 

Because Diggs ran off instead of talking. Fled the stadium after the Bengals defeat, didn't bother to empty his locked, happily ran around TV studios to bleat before going off grid. Perhaps Josh told him some home truths and he didn't like it.

Something tells me we're drafting multiple wrs next year.

We should be doing that anyway!  Most important position on the team after qb.

It was okay for Tom Brady to do this though? 🤷

When you win Superbowls and can put 5 rings on one hand alone, I guess that buys you some slack.

Whatever is happening with Diggs, it seems they've had the last 5 months to figure it out. Why all of a sudden is this happening now during ota's? 

Because the issue clearly wasn't cleaned up, and skipping minicamp is a way for Diggs to draw attention to his cause.

 

Whatever that might be.

In other news, a certain someone is about to win a Stanley Cup 😇

 

Sorry Diggs is a diva

Any chance of him speaking to media?

Or the other way around.  I'm not defending someone skipping work.  But there's merit to the idea that Diggs wants a non-nonsense Josh - no personal BS this year that infects games including Jets, Vikings, and Bengals playoffs, and that this is sort of a constellation of circumstances issue--mad about 13 seconds, Dorsey, maybe not being consulted on Hall when Josh got a say on Dorsey.  Who knows.  But it strikes me as someone who is demanding more and better, just not in perhaps the right way. 

 

No matter, the reality is that Diggs has EVERYONE's attention now.  So if the plan was to pique interest in his position, mission has been accomplished.

Get a new keyboard while you're at it.  The current one replaces "O" with "0."

Good article summarizing what's known by John Wawrow

[78thealltimegreat]

I’d love to give Steph some leeway here but he was available for his antics with Cousins in Minnesota and that was simply cause Adam Thealan was getting thrown passes.

If he’s unhappy with the offense that’s one thing but if he’s unhappy with Josh Freaking Allen as his QB then I got some bad new for him if he thinks anyone not named Mahomes is going to do any better with him. 
If not for that deadcap hit you trade him and sign DHOP who actually wants to ply with Josh Allen and move on.

What exactly "personal BS" of Josh infected the Jets, Vikings, and Bengals playoffs?

 

Do Tell.
