I hate to see any player have a injury that can end a season or keep them out . That being said i hope it's not season ending so when the Bills meet them again in the play offs Josh & the Bills can take them to the wood shed then there can't be any excuses that they didn't have all their players healthy .


I hear what you are saying but not having your players healthy only holds water within that teams own fanbase. Nobody outside of Bills fans feel any sympathy about what we were fielding last year against the Chiefs.

the Bills weren't "forced into a trade". They simply had enough of the guy and his antics.  

 

It is not plausible.  You don't pay a guy 31 million not to play for you because he wanted to be traded.  The Bills were willing to pay any price to get rid of him.

They did not pay him 31M to not play for the Bills, they took an accelerated cap charge, it happens all the time.  Agree to disagree........

Stroud has looked like trash without Collins for most of the time. Now he doesn't have Diggs either....look out...

Yeah and Collins won't get off IR until week 10.  They still have to play the Lions, Cowboys, Chiefs, and Ravens, but they can help us if they get a W on Thursday vs. the Jests.

Best to root for the Jets.  Jets are done for the season. Plus the more useless wins they get the worse their draft position.

The Bills are beyond the point where they need the Jets to lose to help them.  IMO, a Jet's win over Houston would actually be more help to the Bills then a loss.

Any news on the Diggs injury?

He hurt his knee. :)

 

 

 

 

 

They said he wouldn't have practiced if they had practice yesterday. Nothing else. 

 

He has been IR'd ACL I believe.

I was very ready for him to go tbh

 

I appreciate his play here for the most part. But he was never really that bonafide stud wideout he imagined himself to be if we are being totally honest

 

He excelled at a particular skill set (great hands, dynamic route runner, short area quickness) and maximized his talent for sure but he was never Adams, never Hill, never Jefferson or Hopkins or even Chase...he's basically terry mclaurin just playing w Josh Allen imo

I was more than ready to punt kick him. He intentionally causes **** everywhere he goes and its just his nature.

They could have made Houston's picking up that cap hit part of the trade.  They didn't bother--just anted him out as Houston was the only buyer in the market for Diggs.

 

This trade wasn't demanded by Diggs....

That is not what he is saying...

The Bills extended Diggs beginning of 2023 and paid him upfront bonus money....that was intended to cover for his playing with the Bills in 2024.  However, due to the trade, he did not play a single game in 2024 for the Bills.

Officially tore his ACL as per Schefter. 

Bummer.  And the worst part is that Houston is out of options on the trade market with Adams, Cooper and Hopkins already traded.  May be they will go after a Thielen in Carolina or Williams with the Jets.
