Diggs does have that Deion style attribute about baiting and setting up QBs, wont go any further than that in comparison, but the instinct to the ball is relevant.
I thought as the season went on he did a better job of picking and choosing when to get aggressive and when to just make the tackle
It takes a while to really catchup to the speed QB’s at this level can throw and in many cases the accuracy down the field
I think he will be even better this year though he may not get the ints
Last season was a career year in ints and very hard to duplicate

6 interceptions by week 5. I predict he will challenge the record again this year. In the division he has Hurts, Wentz and Jones throwing the ball. I don't care how good the receiver is, if the QB isn't accurate a ball hawk will grab it.

INTs are game changers but getting beat for TDs can also change games. Everson Walls can testify to that. He had a lot of picks but will best be remembered for the TD he gave up to Dwight Clark. I like Diggs he has a chance to be a great player he just needs to tighten up some things in his game.

again he gave up 4 TD, I get it but in a league that favors passing, I think making plays such as ints makes a big difference. For years we had guys who would not look back and make the big plays and yet still gave up TD. I agree Diggs has to be more aware of double moves but I do not want to see him give up aggressiveness and have no ints. Personally I think Diggs is a great player with a chance to improve.

You think he has 10+ INTS again this year? lol
Why is that funny? The guy is a ball-hawking cornerback with hands of a receiver and the best thing about it is they keep throwing at him and yes I know he gives up yards but I'll take him over that Jones guy who I think had all of what 3 int's his entire career with the Cowboys, well I'm here to tell ya that's unacceptable.

I don't think you really believe he gets 10+ INTS again. I think you HOPE he does, we all do, but nobody would put money on that.

I guess they forgot about that scrub in Minnesota. What's his name? Justin Jefferson?
It appears I misspoke.
If you click on the Twitter link, it does list Justin Jefferson.
My bad for not investigating before I put my fingers to work. :oops:

I would make a wager with you on that however the hall monitors really laid into me one day when I talked about gambling in here.

I think Diggs is gonna be a better all around player this season. May have less picks, but he will get his share. The kid is a ball hawk with a great nose for the ball.

It will all depend on the front 7 getting consistent pressure and sacks. That will help make you a better team every year.

The success of the Cowboys DB's are proportionally equal to the opponent QBs sense of urgency and that is dictated by the intensity of the pass rush.

The Cowboys offense also plays a big part in the DB's ability to create defensive plays. The more the Cowboys score on offense, the more desperate the opponent becomes in their passing game.

By the way, how many fans know that, even if you subtract all of Digg's INT's, the Cowboys still had the most INT's since 2014? All three starting CB's had their career high number of INT's in the 2021 season as did safety Jayron Kearse as well.

That's what a pass rush does for you.

There’s a reason 2 divisional foes spent 1st picks on receivers!

Terry and Devonta were cuffed by Diggs
Devonta had him beat a few times but Hurts was too busy not being a quarterback. With a real QB Smith has 10-11 td’s last year.

With the winning numbers, I could’ve hit the jackpot and had a net worth of a few hundred million

Diggs has some of the best hands that you will ever see on a db...probably the best in the league.

Vegas probably has some kind of line on this. It's probably 20-1. Never go high risk and take even money.

I'm guessing they don't want you soliciting bets or making bets on the forum.
