“We Just Came Out Today As A Unit”
September 20th, 2015
Gerald McCoy talks to Joe in New Orleans
That players-only film session led by Gerald McCoy and Lavonte David this week? Mission accomplished, Gerald McCoy told Joe in the happy Bucs locker room in New Orleans.
Joe talked to an exhausted McCoy who said the jelling was evident.
“We just came out today as a unit,” McCoy said. “Everybody focused on doing their job as best they could. And it worked out for us.”
McCoy said he understood fan freakout after the opening-day beating, but it was the players job to block out the outside world and stay focused.
No. 93 also said he hatched a bit of a plan with Jacquies Smith to stay committed to edge rushing versus coming inside while McCoy would rush the B-gap. Smith had a whopping three sacks, so it worked.

September 20th, 2015 at 4:58 pm
Good OL’ GMC flapping his mouth again…..but basically was a non-factor the whole game….

LVD is the leader of the defense…..not you GMC

September 20th, 2015 at 5:02 pm
Let me join the chorus JOE….what about the injury?
September 20th, 2015 at 5:03 pm
Non factor? What game were you watching?
September 20th, 2015 at 5:03 pm

September 20th, 2015 at 5:05 pm
tba
you are a non-factor as a fan, you silly man.

When GMC was injured his return was probable according to nfl.com game center.
September 20th, 2015 at 5:11 pm
Injury up date on GMC JOE’S???
September 20th, 2015 at 5:14 pm
BucsAnthem, u really r a jerk.
Yes Joe, they walked McCoy off holding his wing. Any word on the injury.
September 20th, 2015 at 5:15 pm
torn biceps done for year! Mr Glass
September 20th, 2015 at 5:15 pm
Would still like an injury update. But I imagine Joe is drinking the booze in celebration right now, lol.
Just glad the losing streak is broken.

I’m glad the Buccaneers got a win today. I saw improvements all over the field today including at the offensive line (especially Marpet). All of the sudden the Texans look beatable with their quarterback carousel and diminished running game with Foster out for a few more weeks.
I think the haters around here need to take a step back and either enjoy the win or find another team to follow.

@TheBucsAnthem – If McCoy is out this team will 100% notice it. LVD and him are both the leaders of this team and constant double teams on McCoy allows guys like Smith to get pressure. So much hate for McOy and I don’t understand. Comes from everywhere but the guy could of easily left and he decided to stay on a horrible team and build this defense up.
September 20th, 2015 at 5:16 pm
Mccoy is a locker room leader. His on field leadership isnt there but he did a heck of a job splitting a double team to get his sack today. And people say GMC doesnt get doubled.
September 20th, 2015 at 5:19 pm
they stayed committed and earned their money today!
Good job D.
September 20th, 2015 at 5:28 pm
Word right now is that GMC has a strained shoulder.
September 20th, 2015 at 5:28 pm
Gmc injury scare being reported as just that, a scare and he is “fine”
September 20th, 2015 at 5:36 pm
People please stop replying to stupid negative comments!!!! If it is a lagit concern or observations so be it… But stupid people and the comments they leave should be ignored!!!! Otherwise reply just makes you stupid as well IMHO….

@Animal
Hope you’re right. They were massaging his biceps as he left the field and given GMC’s history with biceps injuries that was scary.

Per Rick Stroud Twitter:
Bucs DT Gerald McCoy not moving his right arm as he entered the locker room. Injured in the final minute of the game.
I hope he’s OK.
Good job Bucs.
Saints fans must be rioting right now.
September 20th, 2015 at 6:41 pm
Per Stroud.
McCoy said he was fine after the game. Was using his hurt arm to pack up his locker.
September 20th, 2015 at 6:48 pm
way to beat the double team and come through with the sack mr mccoy. i like the adjustment to play for your teamates as well, keep up the good work. go bucs.
September 20th, 2015 at 7:41 pm
[…] we shouldn’t forget about McCoy’s contribution to Smith’s success either. As he told JoeBucsFan, McCoy planned with Smith for the latter to stick with outside speed rushes when McCoy went for the […]

Winston haters
All of you-
F$&@ Off
It’s been 2 games. Marcus or JW need 2 years before you crown one or bash the other. They are ROOKIES!
It is pathetic how you all wanted to blow your heads off and call for Lovies head and calling JW a bust.
2 games?!? Really?!? Just tells me you know nothing about football.
Same for the McCoy haters. HE is the reason that line played good today. He disrupts everything while taking double teams. He is a beast.
September 20th, 2015 at 9:56 pm
Yeah, McCoy is on pace for 16 sacks. 2 after 2 games. What a softie. People who post about McCoy being a non factor should really find another sport to follow. They appear so foolish to those who really watched the game.
