Just an interesting stat on Diggs

[J12B]

Diggs has 5 interceptions in 14 games as a Cowboy.

Byron Jones had 2 in 79 games.

I believe 3 of those 5 are against eagles so tomorrow night he will add more

 

[Zekeats]

I love the guy who gets the ball back so much more. Even if it means he gets beat once and a few. Jones was good but never changed the outcome of a game. Diggs does.

 

[Cmac]

I like Diggs and he's playing well, progressing well, but since Gil Brandt is comparing Pollard to Lenny Moore, might as well compare Diggs to Primetime now. You think?

Diggs is a playmaker, and as long as he continues to make the plays, he'll be a great asset. If he starts missing the play too often, it'll be very costly.

We've had some solid guys on our D, but not really playmakers. Playmakers change the game. Our D hasn't jelled yet, but the turnovers have kept us in the games.

If Diggs gets an INT vs. Philthy it would be 3 in a row against them. He had 3 against them last year.
It would also make him the second Cowboy in Dallas history to have an INT in the first 3 games, he would join Everson Walls.
Right now he joins Roy Williams with having an INT in the first 2 games.

Diggs is the Eagles assassin.

Diggs has 5 interceptions in 14 games as a Cowboy.

Byron Jones had 2 in 79 games.

Mo Claiborne had just 7 in 85 career games. Remember, we traded two 1st round picks for that guy. Not to mention, Jerry said our scouting department gave Claiborne the highest grading for a cornerback since Deion, smh.

 

[Havic]

The crazy part is he dropped 3-4 passes that would have been sure fire interceptions as well

 

[BoysfanfromCanada]

I know at least one of Jones' INTs was an end of 1st half hail Mary pass. The 2nd if I'm not mistaken was a tipped pass that went straight to him. He almost never broke on the ball. He would swat passes away efficiently but he would never be in positions to pick them off. You'd think the qb would be off one day and just throw it more to him than the WR

point still stands, but it was a first and a 2nd. and if we’re to believe the after talk the 2nd would’ve been used on bobby wagner

Yep, I think that’s right.

Some guys just don’t have ball skills when it’s time to compete when the football is in the air.

You’re right, it was for a 1st and 2nd.

We would have taken Brockers and Wagner per Jerry during the post draft presser.

Wagner is arguably a HOF caliber player and Brockers turned out to be a rock-solid and productive player.

[Hennessy_King]

Diggs has 5 interceptions in 14 games as a Cowboy.

Byron Jones had 2 in 79 games.

And one of byron jones' ints was a halftime hail mary attempt so really only 1. And was also in coverage on that play to cook to cost us the playoff game in 2016.

So glad hes gone. Hasnt done a thing in Miami either. Just wait til he loses a step.

 

[stilltheguru]

Byrons was off a hail mary and another a ball tipped by a dlineman lol.

 

[TwoCentPlain]

Diggs has 5 interceptions in 14 games as a Cowboy.

Byron Jones had 2 in 79 games.

I would guess Diggs might have more than Jones and Awuzie combined as Cowboys for 5 years.

So, what are you trying to say?

 

[Hawkeye0202]

Read a piece of Diggs telling a reporter after the season he counted 14 passes he got his hands on but only can away with a couple of interceptions. That's unacceptable as he put it.....

 

[jazzcat22]

The Cowboys have not had a Pick 6 in 59 games. Just seen that stat on Cowboys Game Day on the the local CBS station in DFW.
Can Diggs break this steak soon, maybe Monday night?

The only other teams with longer streaks are the Panthers at 78 games, and the Cardinals at 65 games.
