Star WR Stefon Diggs baffled by Bills' playoff woes

Wide receiver Stefon Diggs is baffled by the Buffalo Bills' playoff woes during his time with the organization. 

"It doesn't make sense," Diggs said during the latest edition of Uninterrupted's "The Shop," as shared by Kevin Patra of the NFL's website. "I'll rack my brain with this s--- at this point. I think it's more execution than anything. S--- is small little pieces on why s--- is not going right. ... We've got the players. We've got the plays. Why s--- ain't coming together? That's where you draw some of those questions. I never want to question who I am, I never want to question how I am. I'm giving this s--- everything I've got. I'm dying on the hill for that."

Diggs joined the Bills via a trade from the Minnesota Vikings following the 2019 campaign and has since been on three postseason rosters. However, those squads fell short of playing on Super Bowl Sunday, and neither of the last two Buffalo teams made it to the AFC Championship Game. 

Diggs was unable to hide his frustrations during the 27-10 playoff loss to the Cincinnati Bengals back on Jan. 22, and he went viral after television cameras showed the 29-year-old seemingly confronting quarterback Josh Allen. Both Bills general manager Brandon Beane and head coach Sean McDermott have since come to Diggs' defense regarding that day and insisted he isn't going anywhere this offseason amid numerous trade rumors. 

For a piece published on Feb. 10, Diggs told Katherine Fitzgerald of the Buffalo News that he couldn't at that time "draw an answer as to" why the Bills were blown out by the Bengals. 

"We just didn’t look like a team; we didn’t look like we had any juice," he said. "It just looked like a different team, and it just didn’t make any sense to me." 

For what it's worth, the closing weeks of the season were "emotionally draining" for many within the Bills after safety Damar Hamlin went into cardiac arrest and nearly lost his life during a game at the Bengals on Jan. 2. It sounds like Diggs wants to be part of the solution and help rally the troops ahead of the 2023 season, but he and others in the locker room may still require some healing before summer training camp sessions open.
