The Buffalo Bills’ star receiver had started the season off on a great note. He recorded 100-plus yards in 5 of the 6 Bills’ starting games. But then something changed, and he’s now recorded less than 100 yards in his last four games. This drop in the player’s performance hasn’t gone unnoticed. His brother, Trevon Diggs, who plays as cornerback for the Dallas Cowboys, was especially concerned. And this won’t come as good news for the Bills QB, Josh Allen.

Knowing the potential his brother has, Trevon, couldn’t stand watching him perform below his capabilities on the gridiron. And he wasn’t private and quiet with his criticism either, and took to X to voice out his concerns.

Trevon Diggs posted on X, “Let’s not forget, he didn’t start going off till bro got there.” Who was he referring to? The Bills QB, Josh Allen. Blaming him for the Bills’ mediocre 6-5 performance so far in the season, he suggested that Allen’s career only started when his brother got to the Bills. But was his criticism of Allen justified?

Allen currently is number 2 in the league as the QB with the most interceptions at 11. But Allen’s fans came to his rescue in the comments section. The Bills Mafia defended their QB by saying that most of the wideout’s remarkable feats came under Allen. He made his First Team and Second Team All-Pro selections, only after partnering up with Allen.

For starters, the Bills now have a new offensive coordinator. Joe Brady was already serving as the team’s QB coach, but on November 14, 2023, the management decided to fire OC Ken Dorsey. Brady immediately took over as the interim OC. It’s now up to Joe Brady to ensure that Allen plays well in upcoming games.

Sure, Brady could give personal attention to Allen before as the QB coach, but now he can better assess and set up the other offensive weapons to suit Allen’s playing style. And that includes Stefon Diggs. Maybe that will make his brother happy. Trevon had actually campaigned for his brother to join him in Dallas. “Man 14 Gotta get up outta there,” Trevon Diggs had posted on X,

But it doesn’t look like Stefon is going to change his team any time soon. As the Bills take on the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday Night Football, will the QB-WR duo manage to shut up their critics?

I am a hardcore believer in the ‘Mamba Mentality’, which certainly applies to the NFL. The sport is not just about physical prowess but also demands a powerful mindset. Growing up, I spent time with athletes on the neighborhood soccer field.
