Jeremy Fowler - The Bills believe they have the Diggs situation resolved

Yes, I knew you were setting up a strawman.

 

You tried to distort my statement by implying that my argument was centered around "McDermott could never achieve more than 8 wins without a franchise argument." I saw through your feeble attempt (as I often do) and promptly responded by acknowledging that lesser coaches can occasionally stumble upon a better-than-average season due to luck. I even provided an example of Dick Jauron in 2001.

 

You were outwitted and outsmarted. Deal with it.

 

 

Yes, this is common.

 

You have fallen prey to the Dunning-Kruger effect. Fools often believe themselves to be smarter than experts.

Thus is at least the second time you have employed the "Dunning-Kruger" to bolster your pathetic claims about intellectual superiority.  At least be creative and come up with a new schtick to try and impress people.

No.  El Presidente is saying McDermott wouldn’t win more than 8 games if Allen went down.  I question it because McDermott won 9 with Taylor.

 

But then he wants to bring luck into it. 

Regular season is fun. Not sure how McD would do without Allen.  But he can't get past the divisional round often with Allen. So its pretty likely the season is over if Allen is not available for the playoffs.

And?  It’s pretty likely most coaches don’t make it past the divisional round without their elite QB.  No?  
 

Great poast

Did anyone else watch this?

 

I don't think everything they say in this is accurate, but I do think they make some good points here and there. Everyone wants Diggs to speak and say "everything is fine" to be convinced things are actually fine, but I don't see him doing that. I wish he would, just to shut the media up, but he won't. They bring up how disrespectful they felt Diggs was toward Allen in that game, and Shady mentioned he is human and sometime as humans, we react/mess up. I agree with that, but what I don't think a lot of them know is that Diggs was "liking" some shady stuff about Josh in the offseason. He "unliked" one of ones that gained some traction, but that just proves the point that he has been disrespectful more than once, not only to Josh, but the team as a whole. I have always loved the guy, I don't think we could afford to lose him, and I do think the more they are together in training camp, the more things will smooth over, but I hate that this has been dragged out this long. I just don't get it. 

 

If Josh says everything is fine, do we not have reason to believe him? I have been on the side of believing him, but the media keeps insisting things aren't fine and putting their two cents in as to why, and it's giving me a headache.

I really appreciated watching this. But the best part was cut off at the very end... Emmanuel Acho, a former linebacker, said on the D (and Shady agreed this applies on offense too) you NEVER publicly sell out your teammate for a mistake. "Don't ever under any circumstance sell your teammate out publicly." And Diggs doing the hands out on the sideline of the CIncy game was that. 

Acho said "immature" or "uncalculated" people do this. The video literally ends with Acho calling up the CIncy clip as an example of this... But the conversation doesn't get finished. 😕

 

I agree. Diggs may have a legit point but he was immature and wrong in his handling of it. My $.02. Good to see former players, Acho and Shady agree on this point.

Well I don't think this just applies to the Bills.  McDermott and the Bills wouldn't be legit contenders if Allen went down.  It's a borderline WC team just like the other great teams.

What is the mental hang up here with this?

 

Diggs left the stadium to go be with Hamlin.

 

He was screaming at Allen in the Playoff game, and since there are rumors as to why Allen didn’t play well in that game, couldn’t get him the ball.

 

He went on Rich Eisen and laid out why he was angry, three straight Playoff losses, feels like are the Bills really going to get over the hump.

 

So your mind starts telling you, what if I play with my brother in a bigger city, do I want to play under McDermott again.

 

Makes sense to me. Not hard to figure out.
