Texans will be very good this year. 
stroud is still being figured out, and their wr core is phenomenal.  Including Diggs. 

 

Very tough game to win.  Well have our hands full. 
 

 

Remind again who the Texans beat last year ?

What if Diggs gets the game winning TD and the Texans are behind until late in the game ?

 

Then McD's bend and break defense comes to the rescue again and gives up the Game winning TD to Diggs.

 

No one will remember Josh's 400 yard 4 TD game.  Espn Sportcenter will broadcast endlessly the Diggs "Winning TD" and the Diggs interview after the game.

 

So in a sense, Diggs could have the better game.

When I looked it up, it said he was good for 8 tuddies last year. So it could happen the way you described but if hes still good for 8 I am not sure how worried I would be that one of those would be the game winner against his former team. 

 

Although I do believe your scenerio is the only way I think Diggs shows up on my radar at all.

Trent Sherfield had a whopping 1 TD last year and guess who it was against

 

Coaches going out of their way to get former players the ball against their old team is a real thing

Well, let me post a corollary question—when was the last time Diggs stepped up huge in a meaningful game when it mattered most? 
 

Personally I think Diggs after all the hype leading into the game, will be used as a decoy on the field a lot, for the reasons OP gave—counting on the Bills to key on him while their other plethora of weapons are targeted instead. Regardless, Josh goes off and makes this a statement W. Maybe even a hurdle thrown in for old times’ sake! 🤫

Diggs is a complementary piece in Houston. Josh is our whole team. If Diggs has 120 yard & 2 TDs, does he have a better game than Josh with 400 all-purpose yards & 4 total TDs?

Not better but those would be equivalent great games for their respective positions

Ha forgot about this poll I posted a while ago.


Agreed, a game like that poster described for each would be one you say they both had good games as individuals.

 

But based on the fact Diggs is avg 9.3 ypc, a game like that feels less likely right now.  Especially with Nico leading the NFL in receiving.  
 

Anything can happen Sunday, but I think it’s certainly in Allen’s favor right now especially coming off a game where they are looking to bounce back.  
 

What I’m more interested to see now since I first posted this months ago is who has the better game between Coleman and Diggs because I think this might be Coleman’s first breakout game coming off his

mini breakout last week.  I think   Brady is going to don’t things this week…focus on getting back to effectively running the ball to open the pass game and look to get Coleman involved more and earlier to also open up the rest of the field.  Personally I think Coleman could, or at least should, see a min of 7+ targets this week.

I mean how else was this poll going to go on a Bills board? 😆 I think they both have big games and Diggs the player (not the attitude) is a big loss for us (we have a bunch of 3s and 4s who would be so much better in different roles).  
 

But instead of making it a contest better a qb and a wr, this is a monster game. We beat teams with a combined 2-10 record and got stomped by the Ravens. To win in Houston, with all the hype, would be a monster statement win.

Allen will definitely have more passing yards than Diggs. 
Diggs will likely have more receiving yards. 

Imagine if you could bet on this 😆. Allen does have a receiving td in Houston though!

Best scenario is this:

 

We win.  Our defense stifles DIggs.   Diggs goes bonkers on Stroud on the sidelines.

 

 

even better would be:

 

we win

 

Diggs goes 10/12 for 50 yards and 2TDs

 

nico collins 1/3 for 35 yards and zero TDs

Allen likely has the better stat line as Diggs has a lot of competition for targets in Houston. He's no longer a centerpiece.

 

As far as who wins the game, let me see an injury report and I'll have a better idea. Still don't really know how our defense is going to look with the new DC and new players. As of now, I'd probably be inclined to take the Bills but a key injury or 2 would likely change that pick 

And the pick is being switched. Due to the bolded with some key players of ours either hurt, hobbled or suspended and the Texans getting Mixon back along with Tank Sell, advantage Cows.
