Bills' Stefon Diggs Questions Fan Downplaying WR's Impact on Josh Allen's Success

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Stefon Diggs took exception to a fan's opinion that he wasn't essential to quarterback Josh Allen's success.

For context, ESPN analyst and ex-NFL quarterback Robert Griffin III made the case that Diggs was so critical to Allen's success that the duo kept the team's championship window wide open.

That wasn't a universally held opinion, though, and Diggs responded to one user who felt differently.

Allen has played six seasons in Buffalo, the last four of which have occurred with Diggs as the team's No. 1 wide receiver.

From 2020 to 2023, Allen has posted a per-17 game average of 35 touchdowns (15 interceptions) and 4,518 passing yards, per Pro Football Reference. He's also completed 65.5 percent of his passes for 7.4 yards per attempt.

Allen went through numerous growing pains over his first two years, as many quarterbacks often do. But he clearly took a big step in his third season, and Diggs deserves some credit there. During that season, Diggs led the NFL with 127 catches and 1,535 yards en route to an All-Pro season.

Meanwhile, Allen threw for career highs in touchdowns (37) and 4,544 yards while leading Buffalo to an AFC Championship Game and earning NFL MVP runner-up honors.

The two have enjoyed a great partnership from there, leading the Bills to four straight AFC East titles. Diggs has amassed a minimum of 103 catches, 1,183 yards and eight touchdowns in each of his four seasons.

Together, Allen and Diggs are one of the NFL's top QB/WR combos at their best, and they elevated the team into the Super Bowl-contender conversation for four years running.

Allen and Diggs probably make each other better, ultimately, and the Bills have been better off for it.
