Overall, the Bills revived their run game Sunday. But at what cost? The Bills are at their best on offense when throwing the ball and making the attack run through Josh Allen, and it never seemed in sync Sunday. Allen never got on the same page with Stefon Diggs except for some forced short-yardage targets. Cole Beasley was essentially a non-factor other than his touchdown throw.

The author added you never want to take away the best part of your own offense, and that’s what the Bills appeared to do Sunday. The Bills can still be an impactful running team without having a balanced approach. The story also said it’s all about the timing of run calls and the effectiveness of them and the run game likely will not be the reason the Bills have success in the playoffs. While it's just the author's view and the Bills may see things different, it's perhaps something to keep in mind, especially if you're a Moss or Singletary owner.

Kirk Cousins has now targeted Adam Thielen or Justin Jefferson with 51 of his 100 passes this season, and even as Stefon Diggs thrives with a 4-0 Bills team, Jefferson is quickly showing he can join Thielen as the kind of downfield option Cousins enjoyed with Diggs. Jefferson is tied for the league lead with eight catches of 20 yards or more.

The story is about how Cousins is starting to trust Jefferson. This was a situation every QB and rookie WR were faced with after COVID-19 changed training camps and eliminated preseason games. It seemed like it was only a matter of time before Cousins and Jefferson would get on the same page, and after back-to-back 100-yard games for Jefferson, the duo seems to be on their way.

The addition of Stefon Diggs along with rookies Gabriel Davis and running back Zack Moss give the Bills even more options in the screen game. Dawson Knox also caught a screen pass Sunday. It was clearly a point of emphasis in training camp, and now Buffalo has a new wrinkle for its offense. It’s particularly useful when going against a defense like the Jets, coached by Gregg Williams, who loves to blitz.

The story went on to say the following: If it looked like the Bills were sticking with shorter passes, the numbers back that up. Allen had an average of 5.5 air yards on his completions, which was right around the middle of the league’s top performers this week. He also attempted only four passes that traveled 20 or more yards in the air. The good news is Allen completed three of those passes after being one of the league’s worst passers in that range a year ago. It’s a small sample size, but promising nonetheless. Of Allen’s 46 passing attempts, 12 of them were thrown at or behind the line of scrimmage. Only Aaron Rogers and Kyler Murray attempted more such passes.

Sunday's glimpse at the offense without Stefon Diggs, who was traded to the Bills in the offseason, showed the Vikings still need to find an electric deep ball player. Diggs was often the receiver clearing out for Adam Thielen or catching the ball over the top on deep post or go-routes off play-action. That player could very well become rookie Justin Jefferson, who has 4.43 speed. But in Jefferson's debut, the first-round receiver had two catches for 26 yards in 36 snaps. The only receiver to come close to Thielen's total was No. 2 Bisi Johnson, who had three catches for 56 yards.

Thielen had a great game without Diggs, going over 100 yards and adding two TDs in the process. But it looks like the Vikings will need another WR to step up at some point soon this season. As the story said, the Vikings offense needs time to get into a rhythm. Last season, the Vikings were 8-0 when they had at least 30 minutes in time of possession, but 2-6 in games when they had less than that, according to ESPN.

The first thing that stands out about Stefon Diggs is the on-field ability. He makes effortless cuts and finds separation even on the shortest routes and exploits the different looks the defense gives him. If the offensive line gives Josh Allen enough time to operate, Diggs usually finds a way to uncover from the defense.

Diggs caught 9 of Allen's 15 completed passes during a stretch Tuesday, the story said. The story said there seems to be a constant dialogue between Diggs and Allen as they continue to build their chemistry. Diggs praises Allen publicly when he throws with anticipation and he brings an intensity the offense lacked for much of 2019.

According to The Athletic, Buffalo Bills offseason acquisition Stefon Diggs has shown outstanding on-field rapport with quarterback Josh Allen.

Stefon Diggs moving to the Buffalo Bills to play with Josh Allen has caused some trepidation, but reports like these should help to ease those concerns. Allen was able to coax career highs in receptions and receiving yards from John Brown, and should have no problem getting the ball to a dominant route runner like Stefon Diggs. The Bills should be more than willing to open up the playbook now that they have a legitimate wide receiver room. Stefon Diggs is currently 23rd in our wide receiver rankings for the 2020 season.

Source: Former #Titans WR Tajae Sharpe is signing with the #Vikings on 1-year deal. He’ll likely be the No. 2 alongside Adam Thielen, filling the void left by the Stefon Diggs trade.

With Stefon Diggs in Buffalo, Tajae Sharpe could find himself as the WR2 in Minnesota, but they will probably draft another wideout as well. The former Titan has a career line of 92-1,167-8 in 47 games (29 starts).

Diggs has been cryptically tweeting about a change and it finally happened. The run-heavy Bills actually attempted 47 more passes than the even run-heavier Vikings last year, though the Vikings completed 20 more passes than the Bills, so it's debatable what this does for Diggs' fantasy value. It's a boon for Josh Allen, who has another great weapon in the arsenal to go along with John Brown and Cole Beasley. Both of those receivers take a hit as Diggs is sure to absorb 7+ targets per game as the Bills' alpha WR1. Diggs departure leaves Kirk Cousins scratching his head and Adam Thielen as the Vikings' WR1.

#Vikings coach Mike Zimmer is optimistic that Stefon Diggs, whom he said is "sick,'' will be fine Saturday.

Stefon Diggs was quiet in the Wild Card win over the Saints last week, catching 2-of-3 targets for 19 yards, with as additional two rushes for eight yards. Diggs should be more involved this week, as Minnesota will be looking to upset the favorite 49ers.
