Is Diggs Upset with Josh Allen and the Bills?

 The Bills season is over. 


Bills fans are mad, but no one more than Stefon Diggs.


In a game where the Buffalo Bills could not get anything going on offense, Stefon Diggs blew up MANY TIMES during the day. 


Viewers could see the Bills' struggles early. The Bengals came out and scored on their first drive, nothing new for the Burrow/Chase connection. The motivated Bills get the ball and do nothing on the first two plays and on 3rd & 4 Josh Allen threw it 10 yards past Diggs on a could-have-been game-tying touchdown. 



Diggs seemed to shake his head when Allen missed him deep. That is usually a throw you see Josh Allen make, when most fans saw Allen release that ball they assumed it would be a touchdown or at least a big game.


The Bills struggled all game long trying to get the ball downfield. Early in the fourth quarter, the CBS camera crew caught Diggs yelling at Allen with his arms spread out, nothing came out as to what he was saying. But all while this was going on, Josh did not look up at Diggs and remained locked in on his Microsoft Surface. 



After the game, a report came out that Stefon Diggs left the locker room early, per Bleacher Report. Diggs went even before the coaches could get to the tunnel. 


Another report added that Diggs had to be brought back into the locker room, before storming out again, per Pardon My Take. 



The Bills, once again, came up short in the playoffs once again. This time getting absolutely dominated by their opponent. The Bengals were able to do almost whatever they wanted to Buffalo. 


Did this have something to do with the loss of Von Miller? Buffalo could not get to Joe Burrow, and even when they did Burrow was able to stay in the pocket and deliver it to an open man. 


A nonexistent run game does not help the case for the Bills returning to the AFC Championship, with so many great, and young, teams. Buffalo's 63 rushing yards could not compare with Cincinnati's 172 yards when Josh Allen is your leading rusher with 24 yards. 


Do the Bills need to blow it up to not miss their Championship window? Is Diggs in the right to be upset? And finally, is Stefon Diggs in a new uniform next season?

Transfer Portal Watchlist: WR Eric McAlister

Image
Courtesy of the Idaho Press  Eric McAlister was a 3-star prospect in the class of 2021 (0.8600 rating via 247Sports) from Azle, TX where he was named District Co-MVP in 2020. When he committed to Boise Stae he ranked as the 916th best recruit in the country and the 133rd ranked player in Texas.  McAlister redshirted his freshman year, but in 2022, he made his impact. Starting only two games, he registered 259 receiving yards on 11 catches and four touchdowns.  2023 was a different story. Averaging almost 19 yards per catch, McAlister has been dominating the Mountain West. McAlister announced his transfer after a week 9 loss to Fresno State 37-30, where he received 19 targets, which was the most in the country that week.  McAlister told Bronco Nation News that a “fractured relationship with coach Andy Avalos” is owed part of the blame it did not work out in Boise.  On Nov. 12 Boise State fired Avalos.  Since then, McAlister has opened up to the idea of retur...

Transfer Portal Watchlist: RB Deion Hankins

Photo Courtesy of Univerity of Texas at El Paso By: Bobby Cushing As a high school recruit Deion Hankins held offers from Arkansas, Oklahoma State, and Utah before eventually committing to UTEP. But after back-to-back losing seasons, Hankins has hit the transfer portal.  He was a member of the All Conference-USA FreshmanTeam in 2020 and the  All Conference-USA Second Team in 2022  Rushing for over 800 yards on 157 attempts (5.2 yards per carry) along with five touchdowns, Hankins contributed to a majority of the Miner's success on the ground this year.  While watching Hankins you can see he is a bruiser coming from the backfield, almost like a wrecking ball. Hankins looks for contact. At 226 pounds, it is hard to find a linebacker in the country who would want to do the Oklahoma drill with this back.  When you watch his highlights he might not have the top-end, home-run speed, but it has not seemed to stop him from being productive.  Hankins is a graduate t...

Zappe Time?

No Mac, no problem? Not so fast, but Bailey Zappe could be a guy.  The Patriots fell victim to Aaron Rodgers in Green Bay on Sunday, 27-24 in overtime. All things considered, the game turned out much better than most Patriot fans expected with Mac Jones out. Brian Hoyer was slated to start and did until Isaiah Wynn decided to become a revolving door and let Rashan Gary blow up his shoulder.  In stepped Bailey Zappe, a fourth-round pick out of Western Kentucky. In his last season at WKU, he passed for over 5,900 yards and 62 touchdowns, which are both NCAA records.  Zappe overall played well over expectations, completing 10 of 15 passes for 99 yards and a touchdown.  Much like Mac last year, Zappe was not given the opportunity to really let the ball fly. On the off chance that we were given the chance to throw the ball, he was letting it rip, especially on the touchdown pass to Devante Parker.  Zappe had a little zip on the ball, it really looked good out of his ...
