Patriots Rumor Diggs: Comeback Player of the Year?

[Brotherblues]

Yeah I've felt he's been on a pitch count all season. More exposure in the playoffs means more Prime Time. Missing out on the reception bonus, comeback player of the year and now with these recent allegations their won't be anything hold back Diggs in the post-season...I truly believe it will be near epic. He will take it to another level.

I will permanently leave the forum if I'm wrong

Go ahead, try to leave...

Prescott had +4500 yards and led the NFL in completions. McCaffrey had +1200 yards rushing and +900 receiving. Hutch had a career high in sacks. I love Diggs is in the mix, but it's McCaffrey or Prescott before it gets down to Hutch or Diggs.

as much as I would love to argue with you about Diggs chances, I can't...

when in doubt, the QB wins... Prescott has to be the odds on favorite to win

I don't care about any of the awards until we're out of the playoffs. And then I care about ALL of the awards!
