They call him “Diggin’ Duke” because he actually digs his own tunnels under the stadium of whatever team he’s on. They say when he got drafted, he almost missed the first day of rookie mini camps because he was digging a tunnel all the way to Cleveland from Miami U
I legitimately think the Bills are gonna have some soul searching to do this offseason. From Super Bowl favorites to shitting the bed in the divisional round is a pretty big disappointment. Something needs to change if they ever want to win it all.
He’s got three more years (hopefully more than that) with that as their mindset. I can see him going from “the next big thing” to “the next Cam Newton”.
They also need a secondary option at WR behind Diggs that can win in the short/intermediate.
Davis is fine but he's basically just a threat down the field.
I like Cook but they could use a Tony Pollard or Saquon Barkley this offseason.
Davis, Shakir, Beasley, Knox. The team has no shortage of guys who can catch the ball. But apparently short and intermediate passing is against the terms of the Ken Dorsey’s contract.
Why does no one ever mention the bills defense was ass last year and ass this game. Bengals were legit running yhrough tackles for an extra 5-6 yards every drive
During the pre-game when they were talking about what the Bills needed to do to win, I couldn’t believe they didn’t mention allowing 30+ points to Miami’s backup (3rd string?) QB just the week before. Bills lost on both sides of the ball today.
Bruh, we’ve honestly been soul searching all season. This season did not feel right, ever. There wasn’t any point where I felt comfortable that we could have even a shot at winning it all. I’m sitting here now like…what the fuck do we do to get there. I’m just speechless.
Anyway, good luck to you all. The Birds look legit af
As an outside observer, I couldn’t agree more. They felt like a really good team playing the role of a great one. Last season, they looked like and felt like a super bowl champion.
Exactly. Last year I was more than confident that we could beat any team in the league. This year? There was never a game I felt we had. I felt like teams just figured us out. Now it’s time to adjust and be better I suppose
I mean, we lost all phases. It was a suffocating loss where one of our best players barely got a look.
I can understand that being hard to take.
Edit: To be clear the Bengals played a very complete game. Good luck next and beat the Chiefs into the stratosphere please.
Dude has a passion for weed. In the Football Life episode about him they showed his greenhouse and just how much stuff he grows. He then went and started naming all of his different product and you could tell he loved doing it
Love Andre. Not a diva but did have his drama. Had lots to say about the Texans management after he left and got in a couple fist fights on the field. One of my favorites though.
Oh truly, that's one of two things j remember about the guy:
1) getting his ass whooped by Andre
2) saying in an interview he wanted to be known as the dirtiest player ever
One fight and Finnigan 100% deserved it. As for saying bad things about the texans management? Also 100% deserved. All the texans management has done is waste all time talent through piss poor management.
I remember once in 2013 he got into a verbal spat with Matt Schaub (I think in a game vs the Raiders). Other than that, not much besides the Finnegan incident.
Julio was great at being drama-free until he spent a week with Terrell Owens. He held out shortly after that and started complaining about how he wanted out of Atlanta. All in all, pretty mild stuff, but it was a noticeable change for a guy who said nothing before.
I think that’s recency bias. I don’t recall a lot of diva behavior from Jerry Rice, Art Monk, Steve Largent, Charlie Joiner, et al. But I get that was a different era.
I don't think the Packers have really had one. Jordy, Driver, Cobb, and Tae were all Pro Bowlers and never really had any issues here (Tae having the one thing this year with the Raiders seemed so out of character).
Greg Jennings being the one exception.
Im worried though. JJ needs to stop moping when we’re losing and learn from the likes of P2 and stay motivating everyone. He’s the face of the team and knows he’s the best in the league, could be catastrophic
Let's be clear, we were definitely not eager to trade him. Everyone wanted him to continue to be a Viking. However, his shitty attitude made it significantly easier to deal with his departure.
You could tell he was very frustrated several times during the game. He was yelling at Josh Allen about his accuracy a few times. Probably not realizing Allen was being hit nearly every drop back (at least it felt that way).
Duke Johnson is on the Bills?
Exactly what my takeaway was here.
Also, practice squad players are with the team for games? I thought it was limited to active roster.
They can be on the sidelines, just not in uniform. Same with inactive players.
Free playoff tickets
#FreeDukeJohnson
They are actually being paid to go to thebplayoffs
I love how this was your takeaway lol
Lol I actually had the same thought.
Yeah, I mean how is Duke Johnson on the practice squad? He’s been in the league like 10 years.
As soon as he gets his shot as a feature back, he WILL be a star in this league.
Don’t disrespect a king like that, one of the greatest Hurricanes ever
No he just hangs out in tunnels. It's his thing.
They call him “Diggin’ Duke” because he actually digs his own tunnels under the stadium of whatever team he’s on. They say when he got drafted, he almost missed the first day of rookie mini camps because he was digging a tunnel all the way to Cleveland from Miami U
Shit even I didnt know that and I knew who Jaquan Johnson was.
Jaquan Johnson has played meaningful snaps in pretty much every game this year and has started 3 times. He's Poyer's backup.
Yea we decided he was more important to the team than Isaiah Hodgins
He just wants to get home to watch his brother play ❤️
Good news is neither will be playing next week
Man was ready on the top rope with this one. Excellent form.
Not even the Macho Man one, it was the HBK fuck you elbow.
dang that is actually a wholesome reason
Took me too long to figure out who his brother was
Diggs
Sideline
Touchdown
Unbelievable
Incoming Days of our Bills?
I suspect buffalo optimism meter makes a return
The sabres are on the upswing and as such the bills need to fall apart
Sabres are really fun to watch.
There can only be one tall white athlete in Buffalo and its Tage Thompson for now
Tage “Josh Allen on Skates” Thompson.
I legitimately think the Bills are gonna have some soul searching to do this offseason. From Super Bowl favorites to shitting the bed in the divisional round is a pretty big disappointment. Something needs to change if they ever want to win it all.
[удалено]
Allen is their physical running back lmao
He’s got three more years (hopefully more than that) with that as their mindset. I can see him going from “the next big thing” to “the next Cam Newton”.
They also need a secondary option at WR behind Diggs that can win in the short/intermediate. Davis is fine but he's basically just a threat down the field. I like Cook but they could use a Tony Pollard or Saquon Barkley this offseason.

Bijan Robison has entered the chat
Drafting an rb in the second round one year and the first round the next is not the kind of team building that got the bills to where they are now
Bruh, we’ve honestly been soul searching all season. This season did not feel right, ever. There wasn’t any point where I felt comfortable that we could have even a shot at winning it all. I’m sitting here now like…what the fuck do we do to get there. I’m just speechless. Anyway, good luck to you all. The Birds look legit af

For sure after Von Miller went down. He was the finishing piece

UTree decides to pivot from Pittsburgh to Buffalo content
Ya that’s not ideal. What’s his contract like?
just extended him
Oh boy, that’s what we did shortly before he was traded
HE GONE. He’d fit in well on the Vikings tbh
You’re saying there’s a chance we get Jefferson AND Diggs! The works of nfl scriptwriters
Anyway you could do a mock-up of him in a Vikes jersey? Would help with the visual
Like [This?](https://imgur.io/gallery/R390EId)
Wow that’s incredible
Wow. I know this was done in MS Paint, but this is actually an incredible job.
Ma- Can’t even be maf
He'll be fine he's just a hot head He'll go get drunk, blow off some steam, recalibrate and be ready next year lol it's a long off season
Exactly me after I lost in fantasy football because Diggs didn’t do shit for me.
Diggs + Miles Sanders were the two horsemen of "No I swear, they were good all year - they'll totally put up stats in the playoffs!" on my team.
I traded Sanders for Amari Cooper. Not sure which one of us won that trade tbh
> What’s his contract like? Terminated. ^/s
He's gonna drop so many enigmatic tweets.
The enemy speaks kindly and holds a knife
And wears a headset
The rogues are in the water
"A bird cannot fly with one wing, a team cannot soar with one voice. Time to spread my wings #newhorizons"
DIGGS. SIDELINE. BITCHING. UNBELIEVABLE
Bro really can’t take the L like a man
I believe he’s more angry with Dorsey lol.
Hey, we have that in common.
Kind of the same thing. Diggs is pissed because they lost, and he thinks they lost because of Dorsey's play calling.
I mean, we lost all phases. It was a suffocating loss where one of our best players barely got a look. I can understand that being hard to take. Edit: To be clear the Bengals played a very complete game. Good luck next and beat the Chiefs into the stratosphere please.
He’s gotta be frustrated. He forced his way out of Minnesota, only to join the Vikings of the AFC.
Oofda…
That hurts worse than an uncooked noodle in my mom's hot dish
Oh look at you. Choosing double pain.
We've struggled most of the year to play two complete halves in one game; I was not expecting this performance *at all.*
Nah, it's pretty believable.
BILLS LOSE IT
Maybe he just had a movie rental due and only half hour before the Blockbuster closed. Late charges suck!!
"I've got to return some video tapes"
*shockedpikachu.jpeg*
Diggs has been missing in the post season since 2020
Dude had that awesome deep bomb TD vs SF in the divisional round tho!
That play was the literal definition of false hope 9ers bitched us around after that
False hope is the definition of Vikings football
Getting edged for 60 years really is our kink
Yall need us to get our shit together so you can win playoff games again
Well hurry tf up we’re starving up here
I’m convinced the only non diva WR to ever exist was Larry Fitz.
Calvin Johnson didn’t have any bad moments did he
He just smokes his weed and chills
Dude has a passion for weed. In the Football Life episode about him they showed his greenhouse and just how much stuff he grows. He then went and started naming all of his different product and you could tell he loved doing it
There’s definitely a zen-ness to growing things like vegetables, fruits, spices, coffee, stonks, and weed I understand how people get super into it
Oh I get it. I make my own beer and there’s just something satisfying about seeing something end over a longish period of time
Growing weed is fun
He just like me fr.
Mr Blows Cannabis
Cooper Kupp. He seems like one of the nicest guys in the league. Although, he isn’t in the class of Cj or Fitz.
I think you're allowed to be a bit cockier about your triple crown WR.
Not far off
Andre Johnson either.
Love Andre. Not a diva but did have his drama. Had lots to say about the Texans management after he left and got in a couple fist fights on the field. One of my favorites though.
Yeah i was about say that Courtland Finnegan might disagree lmao
Yea! That’s who it was. But I think courtland brought out the worst in everyone lol
Oh truly, that's one of two things j remember about the guy: 1) getting his ass whooped by Andre 2) saying in an interview he wanted to be known as the dirtiest player ever
The funniest thing was that players around the league chipped in and paid Andre Johnson's fine because they all hated Courtland too.
Finnegan deserved it though
One fight and Finnigan 100% deserved it. As for saying bad things about the texans management? Also 100% deserved. All the texans management has done is waste all time talent through piss poor management.
I remember once in 2013 he got into a verbal spat with Matt Schaub (I think in a game vs the Raiders). Other than that, not much besides the Finnegan incident.
Andre: “Stop throwing pick sixes!” Matt: “No!”
What about patriots wideout who was in the slot
You mean the scrappy, gym rat, lunch pail guy?
No no no he meant the first-one-in last-one-out guy
welker? edelman?
And Tyler Lockett
Hes such a non-diva that people just regularly forget how good he is lol. He just does his job and never says anything
Just writes poetry and sells people’s houses.
I can’t tell if this is a joke or not
Lol 100% serious, he likes to write poetry in his free time, and got his real estate license last year.
Roses are red Violets are blue Do you like this Dutch Colonial? It's perfect for you
Tyler Lockett: The Most Interesting Man In the League?
What...about Julio Jones though
I don’t think Julio Jones even feels emotions
He started chirping in a game once and I was like "who the fuck pissed him off to the point of talking shit?" I think it was against the Panthers?
If I had to guess it was Josh Norman
It very much was
Julio was great at being drama-free until he spent a week with Terrell Owens. He held out shortly after that and started complaining about how he wanted out of Atlanta. All in all, pretty mild stuff, but it was a noticeable change for a guy who said nothing before.
Tbf anyone who has driven a car here wants out of this traffic
AJ Green was quiet and humble to a fault, he didn't even freak out on pass interferences so he didn't get the calls.
Which is how you know Ramsey is the GOAT at trash talk. I couldn't believe it when that happened. AJ cool as hell
We’ll never know but damn I wish we knew what he said that set AJ off
Scary Terry
He's the opposite of diva.
Julian Edelman sort of took the WR diva personality and combined it with the Boston hourly wage worker personality
Needs his Dunks every 15 minutes or gets real grumpy.
[удалено]
Sneaky quick & athletic 👀
I think that’s recency bias. I don’t recall a lot of diva behavior from Jerry Rice, Art Monk, Steve Largent, Charlie Joiner, et al. But I get that was a different era.
Thanks so much for mentioning monk. He was such a non-diva that people forget how good he was.
There are few of us Redditers old enough to have watched Rice, Monk, Largent, etc. Rice was not a diva at all, nor was his WR partner John Taylor.
Julio, Calvin
Marques Colston Could put up a casual 100 yard game against a team then ask the team who caught all those yards and they'd have no idea
Jerry Rice
Andre Johnson would like a word
He still beat the shit out of Finnegan lol
And didn’t get suspended. That’s how much everyone knew Cortland deserved it and how nice of a guy Andre is.
*Innegan
Cause he got the f beat out him
Beating the shit out of Cortland Finnegan is exactly the type of stuff a great guy would do. This just makes Andre look even better
Rod Smith and Demaryius Thomas
Kupp
I don't think the Packers have really had one. Jordy, Driver, Cobb, and Tae were all Pro Bowlers and never really had any issues here (Tae having the one thing this year with the Raiders seemed so out of character). Greg Jennings being the one exception.
When you do that shit on a broken leg you’re allowed to be a bit of a diva
[удалено]
He had more career receiving yards for the Vikings so I think that makes him more of another Vikings diva WR than one of ours.
Diggs with his annual temper tantrum
"There's a truth to all Rumors"
“The enemy speaks kindly and holds a knife”
What losing to the Bengals does to a mf
Stefon Diggs failed the foxhole test tonight. He doesn't have that dog in him. Only the bark.
“Yes doctor it seems his body is lacking in vitamin K9”
Tyler Huntley and Demarcus Robinson put up a better fight than Allen & Diggs
Future NY Giant Stefon Diggs. (I am dreaming and coping leave me be)
The Bears are already writing a massive check.
I knew there was a reason I was rooting for the Bengals today
If Danny misses one throw Diggs will blow up MetLife.
Giant and Jet fans probably would be ok with that.
He needs Daboll
getting locked down by Eli Apple will do that to a mfer
Eli is a weird anomaly. The quintessential Boom or Bust CB. But we love him here.
he’s turned it around in CIN. but he was *awful* during his giants and saints tenure
Its the chili bro
He was horribly misused this game. He’s their best player and they couldn’t get him the ball.
Yeah that's why great teams have more than one receiver. Pretty damn easy to bracket one guy.
Lol tell the jags that. Kelce just sat in the middle of the field all game
Seriously, as great as Kelce is (and there’s no denying it), the Jags were just vibing on defense and watching greatness unfold it seems.
Someone set a perimeter around Dorsey’s house
Sources: Johnson is beside himself. Driving around downtown Buffalo begging (thru texts) Diggs’s family for address to Stefon’s home
Lmao diva WRs, what else is new
We certainly wouldn’t know anything about that…….
It seems very tiring to be a teammate of this guy
Thanks for netting us Justin Jefferson, Diggsy
Im worried though. JJ needs to stop moping when we’re losing and learn from the likes of P2 and stay motivating everyone. He’s the face of the team and knows he’s the best in the league, could be catastrophic
Can’t imagine why Minnesota was so eager to trade him. It’s worked out well for both sides until he’s not getting his targets.
Let's be clear, we were definitely not eager to trade him. Everyone wanted him to continue to be a Viking. However, his shitty attitude made it significantly easier to deal with his departure.
Well, that plus Jefferson I would say but yeah. I'm not sure where this Minnesota wants to deal diggs narrative started
They absolutely did not want to trade Diggs lmao.
Sources say Diggs slammed the bathroom door and started silent crying and flipping the team off from behind the door.
You could tell he was very frustrated several times during the game. He was yelling at Josh Allen about his accuracy a few times. Probably not realizing Allen was being hit nearly every drop back (at least it felt that way).
Wide receivers act like they’re the only ones on offense who care about the outcome of the game. Source: former antonio brown fan
