NFL

Everyone expects us to trade Diontae, but this offense was so bad without him. Everyone is forgetting how good of a teammate he’s been, especially when the guy didn’t score a touchdown in over a year. He’s kept everyone in line, including the guy everyone thinks is replacing him- George Pickens.

We’ve all had bad days at work, and I’m not going to hold this against him. Was it poor effort and attitude, yes. Do I think the locker room even cares anymore? No. They love Diontae, and they know he can and will be better.

He’s our number one guy, one of the best route runners we’ve had in the NFL in a decade. He plays in an absolutely awful offense, that finally had a good day in months (if not years). Until Pickens can reliably get open (he can’t, yet) and they actually scheme ways to get Calvin Austin III some passes in space (they haven’t done that in months), he’s here.

Diontae realistically should be Kenny’s safety valve. He should be lining up all over the field to be in Kenny’s face for easy completions, even more so than Muth, but that hasn’t happened because 1. He was injured and 2. We had an amateur running our offense for 2.5 years.

TL;DR Diontae isn’t going anywhere next year, and he had a bad game. He’s a good teammate almost all of the time and the team loves him.
