The Walking Dead season 6 episode 9 featured Daryl Dixon reminding us why he’s such a badass, but some people on social media seem to be distracted by a white blur in the distance.
The Negan-centric conspiracy occurred when someone noticed a random moving blur in the distance before Daryl used an RPG to kill Negan Saviors. The blur shows up just seconds before the explosion. And of course, people believe the blur was a car carrying Negan.

It’s unlikely AMC would be that subtle with foreshadowing of Negan’s arrival. The entire encounter with Negan’s Saviors is foreshadowing the character’s arrival. AMC’s The Walking Dead notoriously tries to pull one over on fans, with the most recent example of their cruelty being the Glenn dumpster-death fakeout. It’s likely an editing error The Walking Dead production missed or didn’t think it was an issue. Seriously, if you're not looking for the "car" you won't see it.
Also, Negan’s not the kind of leader who would wait to strike back after seeing a group of his men burst into flames. AMC teased Daryl and Rick will go off on their own adventure in the second half of the season. It’s likely Daryl and Rick will have another encounter with Negan’s Saviors and Jesus--- another new character coming to the series--- will help them get away.
Daryl has also put a huge target on his back. Negan will probably want to do something to specifically hurt Daryl and show Rick what he’s capable of. You can watch the latest episode of The Walking Dead on AMC here .
