Since 2012 Start, McCoy Leads NFL DTs In Sacks
December 3rd, 2015
What a worthless sack of shame that Gerald McCoy is.
Man, the guy just doesn’t produce.
Of course, Joe is joking and poking the legions of eager McCoy bashers.
One statistic being trumpeted on the Buccaneers Radio Network this week is that McCoy leads all defensive tackles in sacks since the start of the 2012 season.
That should be telling, but perhaps it’s not. Today, acting Bucs defensive coordinator Leslie Frazier said the recent statistical uptick from McCoy really doesn’t mean much. McCoy, per Frazier, has been very consistent this season and is just playing his game — as one of the very best in the game.

But he helps people up after the play. Pretty much negates anything positive he does on the field. #sarcasm

He needs more tackles, that’s what the dominant d-Line men do

I prefer 4th quarter sacks on 3rd down vs. a sack in the 1st quarter on 2nd down of the first drive…but whatever… he’s a buc soooo….GO BUCS!!!

This is a very ignorant point of view.

He’s been far more productive than the non injured Ndamukong Suh!

He’s an excellent individual contributor; however, he’s not a passionate leader and he doesn’t make the players around him better. In essence, he’s not Warren Sapp and he plays the same position for the same team where fan expectations are set very high, so he’s viewed as a failure even though he’s a very good player.

HE NEEDS TO GO WITH LOVIE SMITH , POOR PROFORMANCE FROM BOTH OF THEM…. WHAT IS HOLDING THIS TEAM BACK ?? JUST THINK ABOUT IT FOR A MINUTE, WRONG PICK OF PLAYERS , CAN’T ADJUST AT HALFTIME , STUPID PLAY CALLING ON D-FENCE AND THE PLAYS OF THE GAME, AND CAN’T FIX WHAT HE SAID HE WAS GOING TO ……SAME OLD BUC’S !!! FIRE THEM BOTH !!!

Lets not forget that Geno Atkins missed a lot of games with an injury in 2013.

GMC is one of the top DT’s in the game. Enough criticism already. Fix the horrible secondary.

McCoy just passed Brad Culpepper on the Buccaneers sack list. Brad Culpepper had 33 sacks in 6 years. McCoy has 34 sacks now in his sixth year. Chidi Ahanotu is next on the list with 34.5. That is the level of play McCoy has given us: Brad Culpepper and Chidi Ahanotu. I would agree with that. Simeon Rice is third on the list with double what McCoy has and Sapp is second with 77 sacks. McCoy will never reach those levels. Those guys were truly good.
Interesting that the year 2012 is being chosen. I guess that is to cherry pick to make McCoy look good. Of course, McCoy did not lead the league in sacks for defensive tackles in any of those years but if you average it out he has the most I guess. If we go from when he joined the league in 2010 he is in third or fourth place of the handful of 3-tech defensive tackles. McCoy does not even make the top 50 list for active sack leaders. Suh and Atkins both place 42nd on the list of the top 50 active sack leaders with 40 sacks apiece. And both of them helped their teams to the playoffs.

Wow, Its crazy how people can still hate on one of the best players at his position in the game. How about put a few competant players on the D-line next to him? Most sacks at his position since 2012 and you don’t like him? That just crazy! How many players on defense have even been starters on this defense since 2012? Is there anyone?

You can always spot the dummies on here. Joe can too and gets them riled up and frothing at the mouth. Gerald McCoy is a class act, both on and off the field. He reminds me of Lee Roy Selmon. I had the honor of meeting Mr. Selmon back in the Stone Age decades ago. Sapp might have more sacks, but he’s about as classy off-the-field as a sack of human dung.

He’s a nice player It’s as simple as that
December 3rd, 2015 at 4:29 pm
Always amazing these idiots that think McCoy sucks… truly they are retards.

@truebucsfan….interesting point… I like that post…GO BUCS!!!
December 3rd, 2015 at 5:15 pm
We have many real problems to fix without making some up…..sure GMC makes big money…..but we have money…..what about players who make money without contributing much of anything?

What rock will we look under next? He sucks Joe!

All of a sudden sack statistics matter.
I don’t think the smart fans that are critical of him only compare him to Sapp, but rather that he is one of the highest paid tackles in league history. He also happens to be a very high draft pick. Right or wrong we have high expectations based on those things. If you were to name the highest paid quarterback in the league or a first round drafted QB you would have certain expectations, if you were to name the highest paid and drafted receiver, you would have certain expectations. I don’t think any of the critical fans “hate” him or are “retards”. I am sure all of us (GMC too) would like to see him perform at a high level from the beginning of the game to the end.
