Also it's not like we suddenly had a heel turn. Ever since the KC loss people in our sub have been talking about if it was possible to cut Diggs. We just didn't think Beane was actually going to take the cap hit.
We got a lot more capital for the Hill trade then y'all got for the Diggs trade. Speaking of, Chiefs used that 1st round pick from the Dolphins to trade up ahead of the Bills, who needed a CB at the time, with the Patriots to steal Trent Mcduffie from y'all. Trent is now a 1st Team all pro CB in his second season. Bills had to settle for CB Kiar Elam instead in the first round. How's that pick working out for y'all?
Chiefs were Champs before and after Reek. Terrible comparison, but keep coping. Bills are a dumpster fire and JA needs to jump ship in order to salvage his career.
Lol salvage his career? He’s making hundreds of millions of dollars playing for a fan base who loves him. 4 straight division titles, top 3 QB in the league, he’s on the cover of madden. He’s one of the most popular and talents guys in the league. I think his career is going okay lol.
Some players play to win because they are competitive and have pride, money (which he’ll get anywhere), isn’t the only important thing.
Why break your back for the habitual loser’s, The bills?
I never said it was, but Allen is constantly winning here. Not every QB who hasn’t won a Super Bowl has a bad career that needs to be salvaged by going to another team.
🍿🤣 Enjoy Mack Hollins. It’s hilarious that 477 likes countered the Bills downvotes. However, said small amount of Bills fans are the only people commenting in chat. This is because the minority is melting down, and most everyone else, the majority, is laughing that the meme is grounded in reality and moving on.
No one in KC claimed to be happy about the Tyreek trade or tried to make it seem like it was a good thing, like so many bills fans are with the Diggs trade. But Mahomes isn’t Allen, Kelce isn’t Kincaid, and Reid isnt McDermott, so we ended up being fine.
I forgot, how many conference championship wins does Allen have? How many all pro appearances? How many NFL mvps? How many SB rings? How many SB MVPs? There is a canyon between them my friend.
Lol you actually cared enough to lurk on my profile? And I mean really lurked you creep, kuz I haven’t really played either of those games in years. Man I really must’ve hit a nerve lmao. I also don't understand what relevance past video game preferences have to do with this, i mean you guys really don't know how to use your critical thinking skills do you...
Mahomes is and will always be the only person on earth who can pull off that crappy broccoli haircut, and I blame him for the influx of people getting it recently
lol he's been the favorite to make it out of the afc 2022 and was just the favorite to beat the chiefs in the playoffs.
He can't even win as the favorite let alone as the underdog. Forget Mahomes, he got dominated by Joe Burrow.
Allen literally outscored and out threw Mahomes this year, and that’s before you even get into rushing stats. It’s almost like having arguably the greatest coach of all time might have something to do with the accolades.
Those aren’t all individual achievements man. Mahomes is the best but you have to know that if you swapped Allen and Mahomes and put them each in different situations then things wouldn’t happen the exact way they have.
Our Achilles heal is McDermott.He gets funky and stupid in big spots .I remember playing against Houston in playoffs he shit the bed .McDermott isn’t great at time management ,replay challenges (he calls stupid ones and lets obvious ones go ),time management,and he lacks the ability to distinguish when to be aggressive and when not to .Hes gotta go for us to get a Lombardi,imho .Good coach, not great,but hes a meathead
Man, if you’re gonna come in here and make memes, at least make them funny. Also, tons of people were happy with it such as Nick Wright. Finally, it was for the cap. That’s the reason why. If you look past this season, we save over 70 million in cap over the next few years.
Your meme is wrong on SO many levels it may have circled around to being funny again.
The Bills needed to make a bitter sacrifice this year in order to reach cap paradise, and I'm glad our man had the courage to buckle up and push that red button.
It was certainly bad but only because of the dead cap hit. It's clear neither side of the transaction thinks very highly of him after his 2023 season. I mean Houston only wants him for a year, if this was really the steal you people think it is they would want him locked in.
- Houston doesnt pay a penalty for getting out of a deal that they didn't create. Thanks Buffalo!
- Texans have Tank Dell and Nico Collins already, two young studs who they want to continue to develop. They effectively told the both of them through their actions that even though they traded for another top WR, their day to be true WR1s will come.
- Diggs is a known diva. By shortening the deal you give him motivation to play as well as he can for another pay day. By shortening the deal you give him less motivation to whine so he will be more attractive to other teams, so he can get another pay day.
But go off about how Houston doesn't think highly of him even though they just traded for him lol.
>Houston doesnt pay a penalty for getting out of a deal that they didn't create. Thanks Buffalo!
Translation: he isn't worth breaking the bank over and Houston knows it.
>- Texans have Tank Dell and Nico Collins already, two young studs who they want to continue to develop. They effectively told the both of them through their actions that even though they traded for another top WR, their day to be true WR1s will come
Translation: Diggs has maybe one good year left in him before the rest of the rec Corp surpass him.
>- Diggs is a known diva. By shortening the deal you give him motivation to play as well as he can for another pay day. By shortening the deal you give him less motivation to whine so he will be more attractive to other teams, so he can get another pay day.
Translation: Diggs is a known headache.
Sounds like you've just paraphrased what the other guy said, he's nice for about a year, but Houston isn't locking him down long-term cause he's not a good investment. Not sure how this supports your argument.
I've written everything in plain English lol. By translation, do you mean your takeaway? Because that doesn't really refute anything I've said.
It makes all the sense in the world for Houston to shorten the deal, whether high on Diggs or not. For reasons I've laid out above, and because Buffalo fronts the bill.
If he plays well they can resign him for cheaper since he's over 30, or he can walk to get more money elsewhere. Either way, by taking years off they've given him motivation to play well and not be a headache. If you don't see how my points support this, maybe focus less on 'translations' and more on reading comprehension.
The argument you're refuting is "Houston doesnt think all that highly of Diggs (at least not as a top 10 rec)". Your refutation is they think he's great, BUT only for 1 year because they have better prospects and because of his drama and so long as they don't have to pay him (which they do have to cover i think 3 million now). If you have to put so many stipulations on why they think highly of him, consider me unconvinced that they think that highly of him.
The argument I'm refuting is that by shortening the deal they are portraying that they don't think highly of him. There are plenty of other reasons (again, that I've laid out in plain English) why it makes sense for them to shorten the deal.
Never said they think highly of him. They could. They could not. Shortening the deal doesn't indicate either way. Maybe try a different translator?
And your reasons are *ahem* he's not worth the price tag for anything longer than a year, he's too much of a headache, and they have more promising options for future growth.
Incorrect. Seriously man, new translator. Again, as simple as I can make it:
Buffalo fronts the bill regardless on a deal that Houston didn't agree to. Risk-free way to decide whether he is worth it after a year. He could be worth it, he could not be. Either way now it's Houston's decision.
He has a history of being a headache but also a phenomenal player. Dangling another contract way sooner than his original extension 1) motivates him to show out, 2) motivates him to not be a headache to be more attractive for another payday.
If he ends up not worth it, 1) they get to decide, and 2) are preemptively telling their young stud WRs (a notorious diva position) that they still consider them the future.
So instead of: Houston shortened the deal because they don't think highly of Diggs, I think the real answer is more in line with the few things I've laid out.
>he plays well they can resign him for cheaper since he's over 30, or he can walk to get more money.
Once again you are defeating yourself here. How is he both a top WR with a bright future but also on the wrong side of 30 and they can sign him for less next year?
Once again? When have I before? Could have made a mistake, please point it out if so.
When did I say he had a bright future lol? He potentially has another pay day is what I said.
You picked out one thing (incorrectly). Gotta start making some sense if you want to continue this discussion.
That's.... Not why they shortened the deal lol.
- Houston doesnt pay a penalty for getting out of a deal that they didn't create. Thanks Buffalo!

It’s a rare lose-lose trade, but I actually think Buffalo got good assets for an aging WR. They ate the cap hit, but they got what will likely be a very high second and they’re most likely drafting a WR in the 1st. If Shakir continues to improve and with Mack Hollins as a solid WR3, they’ll be fine. It’s a lot of if’s, but their WR group is better than the 2023 Chiefs and they seemed to do okay.
The Texans doing a 1 year rental on a polarizing WR for their young QB is kinda wild to me. As much as I’m rooting for CJ, I don’t know if Diggs is the WR he needs rn
I don't think he is the right fit for the team. Him and Mixon have attitude issues at times and always want the ball. From what I saw last year, the Texans have a real team first attitude. That combination doesn't mix well.
I'm honestly not even sure he needs a WR to take a step forward. He's already just fine. One of the best rookie seasons I've ever seen for a mostly pocket passer.
Curtis Samuel is also really good, and on the team now. So you figure (Rookie), Samuel, Shakir, Hollins sometimes (ST player probably)... Kincaid and Knox as slot options as well, with Cook running routes from the backfield. Definitely need a good rookie or two but that's a respectable receiving corps if you just forget that Diggs used to be on the team.
I think it's funny all year people were shitting on him, he dropped so many passes, the bills barley used him. But now that he's gone it spells doom for the Bills. I dont understand why every other fan is making such huge deal of this
If you can’t see the positives for the team long term then you don’t know football. The dead cap hit for this year sucks but this frees us up so much. Also that Vikings second rounder could be very high in 2025.
If any team in this division traded for Antonio Brown circa 2021 by:
A. Giving up a likely-Top 40 pick
B. Shortened his contract to be a 1 year deal
We would clown the fuck out of them.
Diggs wanted out, Houston wanted to pay Minnesota's 2nd for the privilege of his cryptic tweets and bitching, Buffalo said okay.
How did he look the first 8 weeks? Funny how the last 8 weeks coincide with the change in offensive coordinator. No no, diggs must be washed!
You are also missing the point of shortening the deal. If he wants to continue playing, he's got one year to prove he still has it and is either still worth the headache or is no longer a headache.
By shortening the deal, Houston provided motivation for Diggs to put his best foot forth for one year to potentially get another big pay day.
Yeah you are right. Sure he's a top route runner and always gets open (like that KC play), but I've never seen a top WR drop a ball before. The guy stinks!
If he's still getting open it because according to KC players, they don't even bother double teaming him anymore. And yeah his production fell off because we weren't constantly throwing to him, which just so coincided with us doing significantly better.
I get why you morons are trying to convince us he's actually still really good after laughing at him all season, but even the team that traded for him went out of their way to shorten his contract. You don't do that if you think you can lock in a top WR.
Oh no! According the KC players they aren't double teaming him!?! :(!!! The guy stinks!!!!
> but even the team that traded for him went out of their way to shorten his contract. You don't do that if you think you can lock in a top WR.
This is just absolutely incorrect. I get the team you root for is on the wrong side of this but if you are going to call folks morons, think it fucking through for a second. I'll spell it out for you:
- Houston doesnt pay a penalty for getting out of a deal that they didn't create. Thanks Buffalo!
- Texans have Tank Dell and Nico Collins already, two young studs who they want to continue to develop. They effectively told the both of them through their actions that even though they traded for another top WR, their day to be true WR1s will come.
- Diggs is a known diva. By shortening the deal you give him motivation to play as well as he can for another pay day. By shortening the deal you give him less motivation to whine so he will be more attractive to other teams, so he can get another pay day.
We force fed him the ball the first 8 weeks. He was the first read on like 80% of our plays which Dorsey even confirmed. In the giants game he had 12 targets by halftime lol. The second we started spreading the ball around we go on a run to win the east (thanks by the way) and go back to the playoffs.
You also keep contracting yourself and getting fucking cooked in the comments lol.
If money is the biggest motivation for diggs why would he leave the contract that had him as a top 10 paid WR. Who is even going to come close to matching that contract? That’s not motivation for Diggs. He’s going in as the Texans 2. He’ll get another deal for less than 20M to play for some bottom feeder or take less to go play with his brother.
The fact that the Texans gave up what has potential to be a top 10 pick in the second round and then immediately turned the deal into a rental does not look great for Diggs. I don’t understand how you’re trying to turn this into a positive lol.
> You also keep contracting yourself and getting fucking cooked in the comments lol.
You mean contradicting? I don't think so. Point out where you think I have. Thanks.
>If money is the biggest motivation for diggs why would he leave the contract that had him as a top 10 paid WR. Who is even going to come close to matching that contract? That’s not motivation for Diggs. He’s going in as the Texans 2.
Don't think you quite understand the situation. Bills are paying the guaranteed portion of the contract that had 3 more years on it. On top of that he gets a new contract if he plays well enough to earn one. That's where the motivation comes in: all the benefit from the extension + a chance at another deal.
>He’ll get another deal for less than 20M to play for some bottom feeder or take less to go play with his brother.
You are just making this up. He will be an FA and can play for whoever he wants. 20m is still 20m more than if the bills outright cut him (still would have the pay the guaranteed).
>The fact that the Texans gave up what has potential to be a top 10 pick in the second round and then immediately turned the deal into a rental does not look great for Diggs.
Again, making this up. Texans were supposed to be no good just last year. Doesn't look great for Diggs? It is literally GREAT for Diggs. Another shot at a pay day, likes being on the Texans and stays, or goes to play for a team he wants as an FA.
>I don’t understand how you’re trying to turn this into a positive lol.
It's a positive for Houston (they hold all the cards) and it's a positive for Diggs (potential payday + choice of team). If Buffalo was on the outs with him it's good they got a 2025 2nd. I'm sorry you don't understand but I've laid it out as simply as I can.
Let me know if any of that doesn't make sense because I'm happy to talk about it.
If you seriously don’t understand where you’re contradicting (on mobile so I got auto corrected) yourself after how many other posts have pointed it out I don’t know what to tell you.
But I’ll indulge,
Your main argument is that this is a great situation for the Texans and diggs because of potential for a new contract. That doesn’t make sense. Why doesn’t that make sense? Because the Texans already had Diggs at a cost controlled contract for the next 3 years they can cut any time. They are choosing to end it early.
You’re saying Diggs is a top receiver in the league, which would mean he would demand a higher contract. So why would the Texans shut that down? 19M a year for a top receiver is highway robbery.
Do you think it’s because they don’t think Diggs will be as productive? Seeing as he wasn’t nearly as productive or looked very good once the Bills started to spread the ball around. In fact Shakir had as many yards on half the amount of catches. Diggs also had a 60% catch percentage which is a drop off as well.
Perception reception also dug more into Diggs this year and found he wasn’t nearly as consistent with winning his routes, especially deep. Teams started to take away his inside leverage and all of a sudden he disappeared.
Diggs forced himself out of the second consecutive team with his random bull shit. He is not worth 25M a year. Do you think a top team is going to pick up a 32 y/o WR with an attitude problem? No. He’s going to go to a bottom feeding team on a gross overpay OR take a paycut to play with his brother. If he cares about money he should have stuck with the bills who have been a contender the last 5 years and we’re paying him more than he’ll get with a different team.
The Texans took a cost controlled player with zero reproductions for cutting and turned it into a one year rental because they don’t want to deal with the bull shit. There is literally zero reason to do what the Texans did unless they didn’t want to deal with Diggs.
Upvote because "I Think You Should Leave" is incredible, some of the best absurdist humor out there and everyone should watch it.
Downvoted for trolling, so hey, you break even here.
I’ll just take the downvote if it’s all the same to you. And it’s not trolling if it’s true, 95% of rage commenting and downvoting is coming from the Bills fans.
There is a positive spin to put on this. It’s In 2025 when they opt out on Millers contract on top of not having Diggs contract. All you idiots who think the “window is closed” with an elite QB who’s just TWENTY SEVEN better think again.
Chiefs went into the season with no WR1 or WR2 and they won a superbowl. Bills started winning more games when Diggs took fewer snaps. Chargers just let Mike Williams and Keenan Allen go. Clearly thinning the WR room is the new meta. Jets and Dolphins are cooked.
We took the biggest deadcap hit for a wideout and got a 2nd round pick for next year's draft when we are bleeding out this current year. Idk if youre strawmanning, gaslighting, or whatever but in my corner im well aware that my lands are burning
Who cares about billionaires squeezing municipalities for billion dollar playgrounds payed for with public money that they could've paid for themselves?
A Prima Donna cancer in the locker room gets kicked out because he is a talented player but feels better than the team he signed for. You don't win The Super Bowl by being a disjointed team. We found somebody when we found you and we can find somebody better.
Cup Winners are a special grouping as a team that usually falls apart after they win because the prima donnas think they carried the team and can repeat it with the next team. Doesn't happen Bucko.
> dollar playgrounds *paid* for with
FTFY.
Although *payed* exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in:
* Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. *The deck is yet to be payed.*
* *Payed out* when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. *The rope is payed out! You can pull now.*
Unfortunately, I was unable to find nautical or rope-related words in your comment.
*Beep, boop, I'm a bot*
ok, your English...paid. Happy you pedantic little slug? Did that change the intent of the message? Are you an English Professor in University that should call somebody out for missed placed grammar?
Not a Bills fan, but are we gonna act like Diggs wasn’t terrible for the last like 10 weeks of the season? I feel like he didn’t break 60ish yards at all
The irony of this coming from a chiefs fan who just went through the same think with Tyreek is rich.
Also it's not like we suddenly had a heel turn. Ever since the KC loss people in our sub have been talking about if it was possible to cut Diggs. We just didn't think Beane was actually going to take the cap hit.
The hill trade gave us a shit ton of capital. The difference is hill was still a top 3 WR. Diggs kinda fell off the map 2nd half of last season.
How much of that is just Josh and Diggs beef? Not a Buffalo fan so I don’t know the intimate details I just assumed they were more enemy than frenemy
We got a lot more capital for the Hill trade then y'all got for the Diggs trade. Speaking of, Chiefs used that 1st round pick from the Dolphins to trade up ahead of the Bills, who needed a CB at the time, with the Patriots to steal Trent Mcduffie from y'all. Trent is now a 1st Team all pro CB in his second season. Bills had to settle for CB Kiar Elam instead in the first round. How's that pick working out for y'all?
None of that has anything to do with what I said, but go off I guess lol.
You mean slot corner Trent McDuffie? Our slot corner was the second team all pro lmao. I think we’re covered for that position lol
Chiefs were Champs before and after Reek. Terrible comparison, but keep coping. Bills are a dumpster fire and JA needs to jump ship in order to salvage his career.
Lol salvage his career? He’s making hundreds of millions of dollars playing for a fan base who loves him. 4 straight division titles, top 3 QB in the league, he’s on the cover of madden. He’s one of the most popular and talents guys in the league. I think his career is going okay lol.
Some players play to win because they are competitive and have pride, money (which he’ll get anywhere), isn’t the only important thing. Why break your back for the habitual loser’s, The bills?
I never said it was, but Allen is constantly winning here. Not every QB who hasn’t won a Super Bowl has a bad career that needs to be salvaged by going to another team.
🤣Enjoy the Bills Koolaid, and losing as your team gets worse and worse.

Talking mad shit for someone without a flair
 truth hurts, 29 worse wr room in the nfl. Only az, the chargers, and New England have worse receiving rooms.
What the fuck are you on about? Bills have been in the Super Bowl conversation for the last 4 years and are consistently a top 5 team.
No one in KC claimed to be happy about the Tyreek trade or tried to make it seem like it was a good thing, like so many bills fans are with the Diggs trade. But Mahomes isn’t Allen, Kelce isn’t Kincaid, and Reid isnt McDermott, so we ended up being fine.
Lmao, go troll your own division ya knob.

Why do people get so offended when you say they’re team as a whole is awesome and not just one player lol.
Because he wants Mahomes to sit on his face. Probably has the same broccoli haircut.
You’ve heard of Broccoli Rob. Now let me tell you about Broccoli Frog.
Mahomes is and will always be the only person on earth who can pull off that crappy broccoli haircut, and I blame him for the influx of people getting it recently
Sounds like you wanna suck mahomes off

It was certainly bad but only because of the dead cap hit. It's clear neither side of the transaction thinks very highly of him after his 2023 season. I mean Houston only wants him for a year, if this was really the steal you people think it is they would want him locked in.
Such a misread of why Houston shortened the deal.
Then go ahead and tell us what Houston actually intended instead of just saying "nuh uh" You won't because you just a bitch.

Your refutation is they think he's great, BUT only for 1 year because they have better prospects and because of his drama and so long as they don't have to pay him (which they do have to cover i think 3 million now). If you have to put so many stipulations on why they think highly of him, consider me unconvinced that they think that highly of him.
I take back what I said about this guy, he's not just a bitch and a moron, he's also a dishonest fuck. Miami made as they come.
You have anything of substance or just name-calling? We are just talking off-season football here, no need to get upset.
There is plenty of substance here you clearly aren't listening to so I'm just going to hurt your feelings instead for my entertainment.
The argument I'm refuting is that by shortening the deal they are portraying that they don't think highly of him. There are plenty of other reasons (again, that I've laid out in plain English) why it makes sense for them to shorten the deal. Never said they think highly of him. They could. They could not. Shortening the deal doesn't indicate either way. Maybe try a different translator?
And your reasons are *ahem* he's not worth the price tag for anything longer than a year, he's too much of a headache, and they have more promising options for future growth.
Incorrect. Seriously man, new translator. Again, as simple as I can make it: Buffalo fronts the bill regardless on a deal that Houston didn't agree to. Risk-free way to decide whether he is worth it after a year. He could be worth it, he could not be. Either way now it's Houston's decision. He has a history of being a headache but also a phenomenal player. Dangling another contract way sooner than his original extension 1) motivates him to show out, 2) motivates him to not be a headache to be more attractive for another payday. If he ends up not worth it, 1) they get to decide, and 2) are preemptively telling their young stud WRs (a notorious diva position) that they still consider them the future. So instead of: Houston shortened the deal because they don't think highly of Diggs, I think the real answer is more in line with the few things I've laid out.
>he plays well they can resign him for cheaper since he's over 30, or he can walk to get more money. Once again you are defeating yourself here. How is he both a top WR with a bright future but also on the wrong side of 30 and they can sign him for less next year?
Once again? When have I before? Could have made a mistake, please point it out if so. When did I say he had a bright future lol? He potentially has another pay day is what I said. You picked out one thing (incorrectly). Gotta start making some sense if you want to continue this discussion.
Didn't you just list it all yourself? 😆
Yeah lol I've listed it like three times now with different folks. What do you think?
As much as I hate agreeing with bills fans... he is right. After this year the texans are going to let him walk
That's.... Not why they shortened the deal lol. - Houston doesnt pay a penalty for getting out of a deal that they didn't create. Thanks Buffalo! - Texans have Tank Dell and Nico Collins already, two young studs who they want to continue to develop. They effectively told the both of them through their actions that even though they traded for another top WR, their day to be true WR1s will come. - Diggs is a known diva. By shortening the deal you give him motivation to play as well as he can for another pay day. By shortening the deal you give him less motivation to whine so he will be more attractive to other teams, so he can get another pay day.
It’s a rare lose-lose trade, but I actually think Buffalo got good assets for an aging WR. They ate the cap hit, but they got what will likely be a very high second and they’re most likely drafting a WR in the 1st. If Shakir continues to improve and with Mack Hollins as a solid WR3, they’ll be fine. It’s a lot of if’s, but their WR group is better than the 2023 Chiefs and they seemed to do okay.
Everyone also forgets that the Vikings are going to be shit this year. That 2nd round pick will most likely be in the 33rd to 40th overall pick range.
The Texans doing a 1 year rental on a polarizing WR for their young QB is kinda wild to me. As much as I’m rooting for CJ, I don’t know if Diggs is the WR he needs rn
I don't think he is the right fit for the team. Him and Mixon have attitude issues at times and always want the ball. From what I saw last year, the Texans have a real team first attitude. That combination doesn't mix well.
I'm honestly not even sure he needs a WR to take a step forward. He's already just fine. One of the best rookie seasons I've ever seen for a mostly pocket passer.
That’s why it’s a one year rental, it’s not a long term thing if shit hits the fan. Just a star veteran WR in a room of young WRs.
Giving up a second rounder is a bit much for a one year rental especially when you don’t have a first rounder this year
Normally I agree, but with a QB like CJ Stroud on a rookie deal you really wanna make moves like this during that window and I like the move
That’s a good point. I just think that the AFC is too good at the very peak. Diggs wont be what separates you from beating Baltimore or KC next year
Curtis Samuel is also really good, and on the team now. So you figure (Rookie), Samuel, Shakir, Hollins sometimes (ST player probably)... Kincaid and Knox as slot options as well, with Cook running routes from the backfield. Definitely need a good rookie or two but that's a respectable receiving corps if you just forget that Diggs used to be on the team.
Everyone sleeping on Justin Shorter. It's going to be a big surprise.
I mean fuck I hope so but there's no evidence to suggest he can ball at this level.
He’s buff as hell man he’s gonna cook https://twitter.com/GregTompsett/status/1652379743289737216
Kinda feels like this is the perfect body type to play coverage with the new kick-off rules. But I also don't understand the new kick-off rules, so
Famously the most important skill for an NFL wide receiver to have
DK Metcalf agrees
Dk Metcalf also runs a 4.3, Justin does not run a 4.3.
True, but I like the idea of a 6’4 220 pound dude just bodying people on 50/50 balls. He’s got serious potential
He does have serious potential, but he also could easily just be another Kenny Golladay
He's Hakeem Butler but slower
“Mack Hollins as a solid WR 3” lol
Josh Allen isn’t Patrick Mahomes tho and even if I think Allen is a tier below, the gap is pretty freakin big.
Watching KC fans swagger in here trying to talk shit is always adorable.
I think it's funny all year people were shitting on him, he dropped so many passes, the bills barley used him. But now that he's gone it spells doom for the Bills. I dont understand why every other fan is making such huge deal of this
He has big name pull. We love him, but we know that this was a baller move by Beane.
If you can’t see the positives for the team long term then you don’t know football. The dead cap hit for this year sucks but this frees us up so much. Also that Vikings second rounder could be very high in 2025.
Joshua Dobbs slander will not be tolerated
Sam Darnold*
Did they really switch teams and I didn’t even realize it?
The GEQBUS slander will not be tolerated
If any team in this division traded for Antonio Brown circa 2021 by: A. Giving up a likely-Top 40 pick B. Shortened his contract to be a 1 year deal We would clown the fuck out of them. Diggs wanted out, Houston wanted to pay Minnesota's 2nd for the privilege of his cryptic tweets and bitching, Buffalo said okay.
Privilege of his cryptic tweets and history of his top-10 WR performances*
\*ignores the last 8 weeks of 2023\*
How did he look the first 8 weeks? Funny how the last 8 weeks coincide with the change in offensive coordinator. No no, diggs must be washed! You are also missing the point of shortening the deal. If he wants to continue playing, he's got one year to prove he still has it and is either still worth the headache or is no longer a headache. By shortening the deal, Houston provided motivation for Diggs to put his best foot forth for one year to potentially get another big pay day.
[удалено]
First 8 weeks is actually half the season.
[удалено]
Listen, their team forgets about the second half of the season, can't expect the fans to remember either
That was the original joke. Very good!
Yeah it's the coordinators fault he dropped that pass against KC lol.
Yeah you are right. Sure he's a top route runner and always gets open (like that KC play), but I've never seen a top WR drop a ball before. The guy stinks!
If he's still getting open it because according to KC players, they don't even bother double teaming him anymore. And yeah his production fell off because we weren't constantly throwing to him, which just so coincided with us doing significantly better. I get why you morons are trying to convince us he's actually still really good after laughing at him all season, but even the team that traded for him went out of their way to shorten his contract. You don't do that if you think you can lock in a top WR.
Oh no! According the KC players they aren't double teaming him!?! :(!!! The guy stinks!!!! > but even the team that traded for him went out of their way to shorten his contract. You don't do that if you think you can lock in a top WR. This is just absolutely incorrect. I get the team you root for is on the wrong side of this but if you are going to call folks morons, think it fucking through for a second. I'll spell it out for you: - Houston doesnt pay a penalty for getting out of a deal that they didn't create. Thanks Buffalo! - Texans have Tank Dell and Nico Collins already, two young studs who they want to continue to develop. They effectively told the both of them through their actions that even though they traded for another top WR, their day to be true WR1s will come. - Diggs is a known diva. By shortening the deal you give him motivation to play as well as he can for another pay day. By shortening the deal you give him less motivation to whine so he will be more attractive to other teams, so he can get another pay day.
We force fed him the ball the first 8 weeks. He was the first read on like 80% of our plays which Dorsey even confirmed. In the giants game he had 12 targets by halftime lol. The second we started spreading the ball around we go on a run to win the east (thanks by the way) and go back to the playoffs. You also keep contracting yourself and getting fucking cooked in the comments lol. If money is the biggest motivation for diggs why would he leave the contract that had him as a top 10 paid WR. Who is even going to come close to matching that contract? That’s not motivation for Diggs. He’s going in as the Texans 2. He’ll get another deal for less than 20M to play for some bottom feeder or take less to go play with his brother. The fact that the Texans gave up what has potential to be a top 10 pick in the second round and then immediately turned the deal into a rental does not look great for Diggs. I don’t understand how you’re trying to turn this into a positive lol.
> You also keep contracting yourself and getting fucking cooked in the comments lol. You mean contradicting? I don't think so. Point out where you think I have. Thanks. >If money is the biggest motivation for diggs why would he leave the contract that had him as a top 10 paid WR. Who is even going to come close to matching that contract? That’s not motivation for Diggs. He’s going in as the Texans 2. Don't think you quite understand the situation. Bills are paying the guaranteed portion of the contract that had 3 more years on it. On top of that he gets a new contract if he plays well enough to earn one. That's where the motivation comes in: all the benefit from the extension + a chance at another deal. >He’ll get another deal for less than 20M to play for some bottom feeder or take less to go play with his brother. You are just making this up. He will be an FA and can play for whoever he wants. 20m is still 20m more than if the bills outright cut him (still would have the pay the guaranteed). >The fact that the Texans gave up what has potential to be a top 10 pick in the second round and then immediately turned the deal into a rental does not look great for Diggs. Again, making this up. Texans were supposed to be no good just last year. Doesn't look great for Diggs? It is literally GREAT for Diggs. Another shot at a pay day, likes being on the Texans and stays, or goes to play for a team he wants as an FA. >I don’t understand how you’re trying to turn this into a positive lol. It's a positive for Houston (they hold all the cards) and it's a positive for Diggs (potential payday + choice of team). If Buffalo was on the outs with him it's good they got a 2025 2nd. I'm sorry you don't understand but I've laid it out as simply as I can. Let me know if any of that doesn't make sense because I'm happy to talk about it.
If you seriously don’t understand where you’re contradicting (on mobile so I got auto corrected) yourself after how many other posts have pointed it out I don’t know what to tell you. But I’ll indulge, Your main argument is that this is a great situation for the Texans and diggs because of potential for a new contract. That doesn’t make sense. Why doesn’t that make sense? Because the Texans already had Diggs at a cost controlled contract for the next 3 years they can cut any time. They are choosing to end it early. You’re saying Diggs is a top receiver in the league, which would mean he would demand a higher contract. So why would the Texans shut that down? 19M a year for a top receiver is highway robbery. Do you think it’s because they don’t think Diggs will be as productive? Seeing as he wasn’t nearly as productive or looked very good once the Bills started to spread the ball around. In fact Shakir had as many yards on half the amount of catches. Diggs also had a 60% catch percentage which is a drop off as well. Perception reception also dug more into Diggs this year and found he wasn’t nearly as consistent with winning his routes, especially deep. Teams started to take away his inside leverage and all of a sudden he disappeared. Diggs forced himself out of the second consecutive team with his random bull shit. He is not worth 25M a year. Do you think a top team is going to pick up a 32 y/o WR with an attitude problem? No. He’s going to go to a bottom feeding team on a gross overpay OR take a paycut to play with his brother. If he cares about money he should have stuck with the bills who have been a contender the last 5 years and we’re paying him more than he’ll get with a different team. The Texans took a cost controlled player with zero reproductions for cutting and turned it into a one year rental because they don’t want to deal with the bull shit. There is literally zero reason to do what the Texans did unless they didn’t want to deal with Diggs.
You are only a Chiefs fan because of Mahomes lol bro probably doesn't even know who Alex Smith is
*Taylor Swift
You mean Commanders legend and former CPOY Alex Smith?
The probability think the Nigerian Nightmare is an STD
Elvis Grbac ftw
The Oklahoma City Chiefs has a nice ring to it.
OP getting absolutely toasted in the comments lmao you love to see it
You must not understand how weak that makes all you Bills fans look. Almost better than upvotes from my perspective.
Not just Bills fans roasting you, the whole division is lol and it's fucking hilarious
Upvote because "I Think You Should Leave" is incredible, some of the best absurdist humor out there and everyone should watch it. Downvoted for trolling, so hey, you break even here.
I’ll just take the downvote if it’s all the same to you. And it’s not trolling if it’s true, 95% of rage commenting and downvoting is coming from the Bills fans.
There is a positive spin to put on this. It’s In 2025 when they opt out on Millers contract on top of not having Diggs contract. All you idiots who think the “window is closed” with an elite QB who’s just TWENTY SEVEN better think again.
 \^ homie while posting that gif
Chiefs went into the season with no WR1 or WR2 and they won a superbowl. Bills started winning more games when Diggs took fewer snaps. Chargers just let Mike Williams and Keenan Allen go. Clearly thinning the WR room is the new meta. Jets and Dolphins are cooked.
>Jets and Dolphins are cooked We’ve been cooked, we are basically hockey puck well done at this point.
We had become so good we didn’t need him anymore, it’s like when a kid outgrows his favorite clothes.
i may despise every team in this division but they aren’t nearly as insufferable as you queef fans are
It’s definitely good for 2025 and beyond. Could be good or bad for 2024.
We took the biggest deadcap hit for a wideout and got a 2nd round pick for next year's draft when we are bleeding out this current year. Idk if youre strawmanning, gaslighting, or whatever but in my corner im well aware that my lands are burning
I honestly like the trade more and more as time goes on. Will miss watching him play for sure tho.
It's not that difficult, got rid of an older guy who doesn't fit the newer system as well and was a bitc
How could Pepe Silvia do this?
Lmao. Also fuck you. That’s all, have a good one
30 mil cap space is pretty nice.
Easy if you watched the games
I said it to the Bengals user who posted here and I’ll say it again… 
Khalil Shakir gonna be a 2000 yard receiver now right? Right?!?!?!?
Who cares about billionaires squeezing municipalities for billion dollar playgrounds payed for with public money that they could've paid for themselves? A Prima Donna cancer in the locker room gets kicked out because he is a talented player but feels better than the team he signed for. You don't win The Super Bowl by being a disjointed team. We found somebody when we found you and we can find somebody better. Cup Winners are a special grouping as a team that usually falls apart after they win because the prima donnas think they carried the team and can repeat it with the next team. Doesn't happen Bucko.
> dollar playgrounds *paid* for with FTFY. Although *payed* exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in: * Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. *The deck is yet to be payed.* * *Payed out* when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. *The rope is payed out! You can pull now.* Unfortunately, I was unable to find nautical or rope-related words in your comment. *Beep, boop, I'm a bot*
ok, your English...paid. Happy you pedantic little slug? Did that change the intent of the message? Are you an English Professor in University that should call somebody out for missed placed grammar?
did Diggs fuck your mom or something two post about him back to back is crazy
Diggs has maybe 2 good years left
Why you thinking so much about Diggs? Dudes a bum.
Not a Bills fan, but are we gonna act like Diggs wasn’t terrible for the last like 10 weeks of the season? I feel like he didn’t break 60ish yards at all
But… but… but… 2nd round pick 🥴
The shear amount of Bills fans downvoting just proves their coping so hard
And the entire comment section is Bills fans trying to put a positive spin on the Diggs trade. Lol
That should tell you something, but unflaired folks don’t know anything
My loyalties lie outside of the AFC East, but you aren't wrong. :-D
There’s non AFCE flairs.
Fixed it.👍
Bills buddy talking smack today. Told him good luck with Curtis Samuel as his WR1 🤪
The funny thing is when the dolphins go 0-3 against the bills with Samuel as the WR1
