Maybe. I do know that Diggs like to give a lot of space in coverage to try to lure QBs into throws. He was a mile off CC on that 75 yarder and almost closed it. But, almost doesn't count in football.
He had perfect coverage on the Kupp TD. He even had his hand out to block the pass. Kupp just made an amazing one handed catch

Sometimes that’s all you can do is admire these throws. Both were dimes by Stafford.
I agree they are professionals also i don't think any corner plays those better diggs and the D are balling out this year

I agree, BUT the reason Diggs went in round 2 is that he lacks elite speed and you saw that as CC pulled away from him. It was a great throw. but most of the TD was RAC yards.

For the life of me, I can't understand why Diggs didn't just cut the route - he was looking right at the ball. Easy pick six!
Kupp had a step on him. Best thing would've been to try and wrap those legs up at the catching point.

Kupp burned the entire defense. Diggs played the proper technique on both the big plays. The safety was out of position on both plays.

But the job of the offense is to put the defense in unwinnable positions. They just did a good job on those two plays. The more amazing thing is that it was largely limited to those two big plays.

Aaron Donald got roasted by Connor McGovern on the long Pollard run. It happens to even the best players.

Ok.....and the other big play by Rams was on Diggs. Nothing to sweat that game now.
We went into the Champs home field and smacked them in the mouth with our back up QB, and here you are looking for something to whine about. I am now remembering why I stopped paying attention to this place.

You are whining. Kupp is an elite receiver for a reason He makes great plays, and got one on us today. Shocking. We held him in check for the rest of the day, and I am proud of my team for that. You keep whining though about one play if that makes you feel good about yourself.

I still can't believe Diggs actually managed to made the tackle on the deep throw, saved a td giving the Defense a shot to hold em to 3. It took a perfect throw to beat him. The Kupp TD was kind of a fluke play too, reminded me of Rice's TDs against us in the 90's, perfect angle to beat everybody, sometimes there is nothing a player can do, guys on the other side get payed too. Diggs is playing great IMO.

The touchdown is on Wilson as much as Diggs. Last line of defense and jumped the wrong route. And Kearse? I never want to see him on the line in press coverage. He got beat like a dog on that wheel route and for that he had his back to the play. If Stafford waited one more second he had a TD on his man too.

that ball was placed where it was either going to be caught or an incomplete, Diggs was trailing and the ball was almost out of Kupp's reach.

Yes but as was said in the telecast Kupp was in the slot, a position Diggs does not play that often. I am willing to bet the play was designed to be an option based on Diggs leverage, it was good play and I do not fault him forcing Kupp to go inside as opposed to outside where there are less bodies.

sometimes the throw and catch are just better, Kupp is that good yes fingertip from Diggs making play, ball was bobbled..howber credit has to go to throw and catch..it happens pros on the other side as well, they cant make all the play's,
