On paper, this should be a confident week for the New England Patriots . The Pittsburgh defense is giving up nearly 394.5 yards a game, and history is practically a Patriots fan since 2000; they’re 14-4 against the Steelers . But Stefon Diggs isn’t reading the paper. He’s been in this league long enough to know better.
It’s precisely why he issued a warning to his own locker room. “I look forward to going out there this week as well, ” Diggs said Wednesday. “They got a lot of players over there that can fly around.” He paused, letting the weight of history fill the room. “I don’t wanna single anybody out, but that Steelers defense, you know what it’s known for. Gotta buckle up.” Diggs knows this firsthand. He’s been in the league since 2015 and has tangoed with this defense
