This is one person having a problem.
 

The bickering bills was Thurman vs Kelly, Kelly vs Burkett, coaches fist fighting each other, Kelly vs the offensive line.  

 

You’re right, we don’t know what Diggs issue is- but it’s one incident.  Not 4 incidents.

🤷🏻‍♂️ and?  So because one player has an issue it’s inevitable that there will be more issues?   Until there are more issues, there is no comparison.  


If you want to compare the two- then compare them. I already told you what the difference is.

Oh goody, another reference to the "Bickering Bills". Because seeing it 100 times the past two days wasn't enough. Good grief.

Bills are fine, it's the Mafia that has too much time on it's hands without football.

 

Plus the internet today.  Imagine the internet being around back then.

Just recently was reading a newspaper account from the playoff loss in the year of the Bickering Bills.  I recall during the regular season Thomas calling out Kelly in that needed better play from the QB position.  Didn't recall in the loss Thomas again calling out Kelly, stating on the Harmon drop , it was because Kelly didn't make the throw in time and on the interception to end it,again was Kelly's fault due to hesitation.  May all be true, but didn't recall him ripping other than that one time.

 

Amazing they became such good friends.

Why?

Because a star player on offense (TT) didn’t say another star on the offense (JK) was the weak link on offense after the accused weak link (Kelly) threw the starting RT (Ballard) under the buss by saying his RT’s suckitude led to an injury he sustained (while in the act of throwing a TD pass, btw). The fact that Thurman saw fit to call Kelly out during his weekly TV show exacerbated the situation by a factor of 10. 
 

The Diggs situation can’t hold a candle to that.

More like Bickering Fans (I am not even sure it ever stopped).


Exactly Lime.  The original poster must not be old enough for the real story from the real Bickering Bills between Kelly to Bruuuce, to the Thurmonator.  It took Bill Polian sitting evreryone down and putting the accusations to rest.  The positive results btw for the person trying to stir up trouble was a galvanization of the team to make a run the following years with 4 SB appearances.

For what it's worth this came up on Twitter and Janine Talley(Darryl's wife) said the whole Bickering Bills thing was blown way out of proportion by the media(SHOCKER) and behind the scenes the guys were just laughing at the whole thing

Diggs V McD this week and Diggs V Josh playoffs  … so my score is 4-2 ( you have named Kelly three times…)

 

Actually .. can you elaborate on the coaches fist fight?

 

Marv talking it down big time in this article here …

I don't think this came up all of sudden due to the Bengals game (or just before) nor do I think it is all Diggs.

 

Things have been clearly less kumbaya with the Bills since the 13 seconds.   There were assistant coaches making lateral moves, stories that Daboll and McDermott didn't see eye to eye, rumors about what was said on the flight back from KC etc. Things were hidden during the hot start last season but probably flared up after the team started struggling in November such as mentioned in Wawrow's article.

Don't forget Kelly vs Reed for Lori Lisowski.
