Gerald McCoy No. 2
May 20th, 2018
Praised.
Who better to break down defensive tackles than a former NFL center.
And such is the case for former Giants Pro Bowl center Shaun O’Hara. Now slaving for the NFL Network and NFL.com, O’Hara put together a list of the best defensive tackles in the game. And much to the annoyance of a loud sect of Bucs fans, O’Hara deems GMC as the second-best defensive tackle in the game.
Having racked up 24 QB hits and a sixth straight Pro Bowl nod in 2017, McCoy is the Bucs’ best defensive player right now. His ability to clear the hip as a 3-technique is rare for a DT his size (6-foot-4, 300 pounds). Like Donald, McCoy’s hands make him special at the position.
The only defensive tackle O’Hara believes is better? That would be future Hall of Famer Aaron Donald, that’s who.
Despite many learned football people both in and out of the game who praise GMC, it still isn’t enough for a number of Bucs fans who can’t seem to wait for the day GMC is released, traded or retires.
Bad teams like the Bucs have no business getting rid of good players. That happened way too often under former Bucs commander Greg Schiano and inept Lovie Smith and is a major reason why the Bucs still haven’t escaped Buccaneers Cove (last place in the NFC South).

Should only get better with the DL additions.
May 20th, 2018 at 12:29 am
I rather wins over stats..McCoy is good this year with more talent added its time to see how good…hopefully he can be a force like Donald. We’ll see! #go bucs
May 20th, 2018 at 12:37 am
Bucsalltheway:
Don’t forget, Aaron Donald, Geno Atkins and Ndamukong Suh each have as many playoff wins as GMC.
May 20th, 2018 at 12:56 am
All losing teams have a..star..some even a supestar who is the..SCAPEGOAT. I’ve watch GMC over the years. He is good. But please Identify his D support systems thus far? Please you critics. I even think his injuries occured because he was trying to overextend himself..Hoping he alone could make a difference. It did not,,and cannot..Alone. Guys GMC is an OUSTANDING player. But no ONE makes a team. I think this yrs addition do him great justice. We shall see. And coach Smith has got to do a better job as DC. I am..YOU are..AND….WE are..WATCHING!!
May 20th, 2018 at 2:25 am
Like Donald
——————–
Argh plz 🤮
May 20th, 2018 at 3:41 am
When he goes… eventually, it’s going to be very difficult to replace his presence. Most interior OLineman shudder when they see us on their schedule, knowing McCoy is going to make them look like a fool half the snaps.
May 20th, 2018 at 3:42 am
I love GMC!!
Go Bucs!!
May 20th, 2018 at 5:01 am
GMC is an excellent DT Joe … an asset to the Bucs coming into his 9th season. Since his torn biceps problems in his first 2 yrs, he been VERY durable, playing (and starting) 90 of 96 games in these last 6 yrs. In those 6 yrs, GMC has played 4,966 out of 6,461 total defensive snaps, a whopping 77% (in 2013 it was over 90% which is Ironman territory for DTs IMO).
But … NFL is a business and a younger man’s game. Any player making an average of roughly $13 mil per year better be REALLY special AND fit into the larger scheme of what management is trying to accomplish salary-wise to build a winning T-E-A-M. And there-in lies the rub with GMC, just like it was with Derrick Brooks, Warren Sapp & several other Pro-Bowlers with the Bucs. After this year his Dead CAP is ZERO $$$, but his salary stays around $13 mil. With several big contracts already on the Bucs’ books (ME13 for instance), and several due next year (Jameis, Ali, Donovan, Kwon for instance), something’s gotta give as they say. GMC & DJax are 2 very likely targets at this point.
May 20th, 2018 at 6:34 am
It’s simple our defense can be dead last just as easily with him out him as there were with him.
May 20th, 2018 at 7:00 am
Like Ive said…no NFL anylist, opposing coach, GM, Olinemen or their fans believe GMC is not a force to be reckoned with. Only a handful of JBF posters who are disgruntled whiners are negative by blaming GMC for all Buc woes.
May 20th, 2018 at 7:01 am
I don’t understand how people can blame Gerald for all of the hate he gets. Everyone is generally in consensus that Donald is #1 in the league yet his team never did anything until he got a competent head coach and d coordinator. Plus one of the top offenses in the league. And still the defense was a liability last year. No 1 man can carry a defense. This year tho I expect him to have at least 8 sacks with the help he has around him and our offense should be going to the next level like the rams did last year! Go Bucs!
May 20th, 2018 at 7:04 am
He is on our team, I will cheer for him because winning is the results we all hope for. With this defensive line that has been assembled there is no reason McCoy should not put up unreal numbers. Even during during our playoffs and superbowl run our defensive front 7 did not look this good. We had Sapp and Rice (my favorite) up front, but Sapp made Culpepper and McFarland better. Now McCoy has JPP, Vea and Curry, so he has the super friends. Then at LB we had Brooks and Quarles. Brooks was great and Quarles only had to be steady. We have Lavonte, Kwon and Bekwithe. We are stacked with reserves to. GO GET ERIC REID FOR VETERAN LEADERSHIP. He is only 27, been to the pro bowl and said he will not kneel anymore. We can compete on both sides of the ball with anyone.

Poor Poor Joe, I have notices a trend that he is DESPERATELY trying to keep GMC relevant even though there is proof coming from everywhere of Batman’s losing his popularity even with his peers and people in the press. What’s going to happen when he is finally gone? Stay tuned! I can’t wait!!!
May 20th, 2018 at 8:13 am
Buc4life speaks for a lot of fans. We have a team that is ready to go and, hopefully, a coaching staff that’s ready to coach up. I can’t understand an post praising the big guy with no remarks from Tmax! Hope he is ok. Anybody know where he has gone?
May 20th, 2018 at 8:20 am
No free T-maxi pad he is a cancer that needs never to come back to this site it is so nice JOE that I can read thru the comments an not have to read his garbage same comments over an over again let him go an complain somewhere else
May 20th, 2018 at 8:38 am
Alpha
Tmax speaks the truth. Results back his statements far more than the false agenda driven by delusional optimists that have not accepted how truly horrible this franchise has been. Reality is a beotch snowflake
May 20th, 2018 at 8:58 am
Ian Beckles played guard. Isn’t his opinion useful? Like Ian or not, it is safe to say that his evaluation of a d-lineman is more tried than ours and he would be more familiar with Gerald than just about anyone else, as he watches every Bucs’ play. Hasn’t Steve White also been critical of McCoy? There are other former pros too.
Gerald disappears too often, is run out of plays & runs himself out of plays regularly. ME13 is a boss but, if we didn’t consider drafting A. Donald because of Gerald’s attitude then, he is less interested in the team than himself and it’s shameful and immature.
Of coarse the better players on the D-line should help Gerald and everyone else.
Gerald is good but, underwhelming a lot of the time. Donald is absolutely overwhelming all of the time.
A. Donald is the player I, and others, thought we were getting when we drafted Gerald 3rd overall.
Go Bucs!

@Tmax/Reality
You are sick in the head. We all know that’s you.
May 20th, 2018 at 9:07 am
NDog NAILED it with his comment above. That is why GMC will be gone by the start of the next season unless of course he takes a HUGE pay cut.
May 20th, 2018 at 9:19 am
Scotty,
Ngog nailed it? Really?! Under that 3 year old kid logic David, and alaxander, Beckwith, and Grimes should go too since “we can lose with or without them”. You clown
May 20th, 2018 at 9:35 am
Alpha, ask and you shall receive. Reality and Trollmax are one in the same. Literally.
May 20th, 2018 at 9:56 am
Steve
Hate tmax all you want he is 100% correct the teams record is embarrassing and dungy failed with his inability to field a respectable offense. Gmc has never won nor will he ever be on the field for a meaningful bucs win. Again you cant dispute the facts. Until the NFL changes results of the game from wins to excuses REALITY IS TRULY A BEOTCH
May 20th, 2018 at 10:02 am
Steve
Stop with the tin hat conspiracy theories too. Im not tmax he is banned.
May 20th, 2018 at 10:15 am

Sick in the head because i like tmax have standards???? Wins are all that matter everything is excuses or bs.
May 20th, 2018 at 10:17 am
One thing is for sure tmax is still in the heads of the low standard bucfan who would rather make excuses than accept reality is truly a beotch
May 20th, 2018 at 10:22 am
For the “we all know its you” crowd is the all referring to the other anonymous posters or the voices in your heads.
May 20th, 2018 at 10:22 am
Reality, the only thing that’s in our heads is that your regurgitating the same tropes as your alter-ego which is actually you. Nice job tricking the Joes though. If you remember from a post yesterday I told them they might as well just give you your name back. See I’m on your side. Kind of.

May 20th, 2018 at 10:37 am
Geraldini is a very good player- always has been. The trouble is that he has never been a consistently dominant player (with games and even seasons) to the extent that he significantly impacts our W-L record. This is as much a prove it year for him than any before- there’s depth and some talent around him now. It can’t just be about his quick first step and hands- it has to be about Geraldini impacting whole games and willing/urging/expecting peak performance of everyone else on that D. It has to be about winning!
May 20th, 2018 at 10:52 am
Here is a garbage pro bowl who is over praise and over rated. O hara thinks he is number 2 but we know what’s up.
GMC didn’t make the top 100 and o hara cried. Another one of fanboys giving out false hope.
May 20th, 2018 at 11:13 am
GMC aka “Mr Softie” aka the “Ice cream man” IS NOT a force to be reckoned with.
Good, dominant, impactful players make the other players AROUND HIM better………..NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND!!!!!!!!
I swear……..all you BUCS FANS are drinking the media driven Kool-Aid
………I’ve NEVER seen GMC show up in big games
………I’VE NEVER seen GMC make the whole D-LINE better regardless of personnel
………I’VE NEVER seen GMC wreak another opponent’s game plan
……..I’VE NEVER seen GMC take over a game
……..I’VE NEVER seen GMC show up when he is needed the most
BUT WHAT I HAVE SEEN FROM GMC ARE:
……..NOT PLAYING the whole season due to injury consistently
……..NOT PLAYING a whole game due to injury consistently
……..NOT PLAYING nasty but instead crying on the sideline
……..NOT doing after games interviews because he’s pouting
……..NOT letting people declare him the leader of this team but instead he declared himself the leader of this team (before Jameis Winston)
……..NOT doing anything extra before or after practice to make himself better
…….NOT being humble but instead lashing out on social media at critical fans or media
………..and all of this has manifested during the whole time he’s been here; and the team’s record and the play of the defense peaks volumes for itself.
So go ahead blind bucs fans and keep on praising GMC. ALL BUCS FANS WILL SEE when Vita Vea is playing on the line and GMC is not…….just how UN-IMPORTANT and how UN-IMPACTFUL the Ice cream really is.
…..”mic dropped”
May 20th, 2018 at 11:19 am
Idiots who probably mutter the phrase “Would you like fries with that order” all day claiming to know more than the people who make millions of dollars Actually playing the game and covering it for a living crack me up.
Keep it coming. Great entertainment.
May 20th, 2018 at 11:22 am
This is like a episode of Twilight Zone. Yes Reality your in our heads, But more probable reason why is, YOUR DISTORTED \ NEGATIVE views. Not to mention your 1960-1980 analogies. Most of the masses find u comical, Some even agree with you, Hell I on more than one occasion have agreed with you. But I wouldn’t give yourself to much credit, To believe people are obsessed with you is silly. It’s more of people noticing the same negative remarks. My bet is once Bucs win, Reality \ Max is gone with the wind.
May 20th, 2018 at 11:24 am
Here’s another person who actually knows the game giving an accurate opinion on GMC, but the donkeys who think they know more will still say the dumbest of trolling sh$t just because they can. Go ahead donkeys, donkey it up! It’s nice to be able to know who the guys are that know nothing about football. That way when the season is playing out we can have back and forth conversations with the ones who know and have a real understanding of the game. I enjoy a good debate on a subject with other fans who understand football, but to debate with a donkey is just a waste of time. We know who you donkey trolls are, please stay true the whole season through so there is no confusion for any of the other guys on here who may forget you. Unless you change your user names I sure won’t forget you donkeys.
May 20th, 2018 at 11:42 am
Ndog – I don’t understand that sentiment. We should just get rid of good plAyers because the team can suck with or without them?!
May 20th, 2018 at 11:54 am

You are fooling no one.
May 20th, 2018 at 11:56 am
#2 rank sounds right to me. This is a Bucs FAN site, right? Yes I do believe it is. Go Bucs!!! We are happy to have 93 on our side.
May 20th, 2018 at 12:13 pm
Dis fake!!!! GMC is number 2 DT on the team last year. GMC actually was outperformed by McDonald giving the standards

Oct. 2014 McCoy takes responsibility for defensive failures 10 days later
Oct. 2014 McCoy calls his defensive teammates soft pot meet kettle
Oct 2015 McCoy caught sulking on sideline because then rookie Winston led the pre game chant
July 2017 McCoy says criticism only makes me more determined
Sept 2017 McCoy challenges his critics to meet him at One Buc dares them to
Also 2017 Ronde Barber leaves McCoy off his all bada$$ team says Kwon and David have what it takes to lead more than Gerald. Again McCoy sulks and takes his shots on Twitter. Sapp criticizes entire D for their 2017 efforts AGAIN McCoy takes offense and complains to media and social media. Running out of room but these are the reasons McCoy has not been my favorite along with the sideline crying and extreme drama that follows him

Can’t wait for the ” I had 3 pro bowlers tell me I need to do more for my team, but my knee hurts” speech.

Yes all of the people who love GMC are correct
Everyone else is an idiot
Hahaha
REALLY. Great players don’t get pushed down the line or take plays offf
GMC absolutely has done both
Good player absolutely
Elite. No Way
May 20th, 2018 at 2:39 pm
Raheem said STATS ARE FOR LOSERS
May 20th, 2018 at 2:53 pm
A Train is donkey #2. Every DT ever has had moments of looking like they are the ones being pushed around. Good games, bad games, good plays, bad plays. It’s NFL football! And it’s not the opinion of people who “love” GMC that is right, it’s the opinions of people who know the game that are right. In this post in particular it’s Shawn O’Hara, a former NFL lineman and pro-bowler himself. But yes, we’ll go with your assessment of who’s opinion in more valuable. Donkey #2 for today! Who’s next?! Where you at DB55 or Biatch? Please, more donkeys are needed. Making the list of who’s actually gonna be allowed to debate with us when the season starts and who’s not.
May 20th, 2018 at 3:27 pm
I hope GMC gets a HOF nod in the future, not because he deserves it but because it would make so many haters heads explode.
May 20th, 2018 at 3:28 pm
Oh. Chris has Spoken
Yes Chris NO. Other NFL player to include Players on This Team have ever called GMC out for slack play
Oh they are stupid too
Only the Great and all know Chris knows
Haha and like most GMC Lovers resorts to name calling like a true 3rd grader
May 20th, 2018 at 3:30 pm
Quiet Donkey. No one is listening to your ignorance anyways.
May 20th, 2018 at 3:33 pm
Chris go stroke your GMC Fat Head and let the Adults have a conversation
I’m sure your Mommy will let you have ice cream
The only problem with the site Joe is your let ignorant mindless twits post here
May 20th, 2018 at 3:46 pm
A train, you’re a donkey troll! My defense of GMC is because it’s been way to easy for you donkeys on here to say any ignorant thing that comes to the top of your head to make GMC a scapegoat. Will you actually cry when you see GMC appear on the top 100 ahead of Fletcher Cox and Suh? I say probably yes. Have you cried year after year when he’s been selected to another pro-Bowl? I say yes. My point is and will be that you have to be an absolute donkey moron to blame the Bucs woes on one of their better players. If you can’t see how that makes you a troll that’s on you. If you can’t see how that makes you a Donkey that’s on you. So, McCoy facts and stats are there for everyone to see, your opinions on ice cream and all the other stupid sh$t you donkeys continue to come up with has brought the comments you receive upon yourselves. I’m done with this Donkey! You will not get another response from me. Who’s next? Who else would like to continue this ignorant trolling of one of our better players just because it’s to easy to do so? Who else doesn’t would like to continue this debate of not knowing sh$t about DT play in the NFL? Please continue! Again, it will just separate you donkeys from who we will or will not have a respectable football conversation with once the season starts. C’mon Donkeys. Please! Need more of it please!
May 20th, 2018 at 4:00 pm
Chris
You almost make Maxi sound sane, no small feat.
Where and when does GMC make a difference in a game…especially lately. I just don’t see it. He is serviceable, and better than average, but that’s about it.
May 20th, 2018 at 4:08 pm
Chris K,
Are you Shrek? What’s with all the donkey talk?
I will say this though, you do sound like an A$$.
May 20th, 2018 at 5:39 pm
Getting rid of Tmaxipad was a great start. All that stupid F**k ever contributed was the same idiotic refrain, over and over and over.
It had gotten to the point that most of the intelligent posters rarely contributed anymore.
Who wants to see the same moronic posters hijack every post, every day, simply to troll real Buc fans. And make no mistake- trolling is the ONLY reason Tmaxipad posted here. He went thru a a bunch of troll bait initially- until he found one theme that drew angry responses from many posters.
One he found something sufficiently irratating, he proceded to post it continuously. Over and over. And over. And over.
Like many, I would just skip over his post. But then, many of the other post were wasted, fighting with him and his cronies
Because one successful troll, draws other trolls to crawl out of the toilet to join him
Tmaxipad was turning this from a football site, to troll den. Its happened to other sites.
Getting rid of him was a great start. I wish you’d complete the job, by douching out his cronies DB55 and Lamarcus- who also try to hijack every story you post.
Then, this could be the last post I have to waste on trolls
May 20th, 2018 at 5:40 pm
Oh bullsugar, McCoy smiles, and that means he’s weak and worthless on the field. All those pro-bowl honors and all-pro honors, that’s all nonsense because I’ve read the posters on this site and they know the real truth, McCoy is the WORST defensive tackle in the game. Also I learned Ryan Smith is just a young guy with huge upside and he had a nice season last year. Finally I learned the Bucs made a mistake by not drafting a new QB this draft.
May 20th, 2018 at 6:07 pm
I don’t understand the love/hate on G McCoy. Either you are an asset or you are a liability. My opinion is McCoy is an asset and the more assets you have the better chance of winning there is. The 2017 Bucs defense had a lot of liabilities and few assets. This 2018 season should be better.
May 20th, 2018 at 6:10 pm
Failure to see a problem is not evidence that it does not exist. Gerald had a better 2017, but he still did not win a single game in 2017 with his play. The Bucs were 3 – 10 in one score games. One stop could have changed each of them. The highest paid player on the team did nothing to help his team win when he was needed, period. Apart from falling at Matt Ryan’s feet, he never has in 108 games.
But don’t take my words for it;
Alex Marvez – SiriusXM NFL Radio – The End Zone – 4 May 2018
Let’s be real on Gerald McCoy. I love me some Gerald McCoy, but the Bucs were like terrible against the run last year, they were last in the NFL in sacks, and you know what, you can say well Gerald did not have a lot around him, well I just not too sure at this point what Gerald McCoy is, and if his best days are not behind him. You see the Buccaneers adding so many defensive linemen this offseason, we’re really going to find out what Gerald McCoy has left. Just like the Dolphins move on from Ndamukong Suh, after the just thought, you look at age, production, and salary, not so much. After this season with Gerald McCoy, it would not shock me, if Vita Vea is all that and a bag of donuts, if they end up doing the same thing. …..
In the 4th quarter too. That was one of the knocks on Gerald McCoy, how many memorable plays do we get from Gerald McCoy that you say, wow. When you talk about Gerald McCoy career, he did this in the 4th quarter. He won this game with his play. You just haven’t really seen it, and the number of sacks he produced in his career in the 4th quarter for his career has really, really been small when you consider the amount of salary he’s has been paid. You look at the numbers coming up Zig, unfortunately this is how you have to cover the NFL, you have to look at these things. What you are talking about here, you are looking at $13 million dollars in base salary in 2019. Is Gerald McCoy a $13 million dollar a year defensive tackle? Well we are going to find out more in 2018 weather he ever sees that cash.
The difference in reality and what is true sometimes is based on what you want to see.
May 20th, 2018 at 6:16 pm
“Well we are going to find out more in 2018 weather he ever sees that cash.” was the end of the quote. I forgot the quotation marks.
May 20th, 2018 at 6:25 pm
Capt Tim
R u kidding me? U and everybody on the this site has talked crap about a player. Do that makes them trolls? I know u have criticize players. So what’s up with hypocrisy??
JW is my favorite player and see bashing everywhere. Does not mean I have to get all sensitive and emotional and wanting ppl banned. I can handle criticism of my favs
And I need to say this. U guys anti-tmax fans make the site boring. I remember this in the beginning we used to go all out. Now we have to watch we say and watch who which player we criticize.
May 20th, 2018 at 6:34 pm
Chris you speak of intelligence in a conversation but are the one who only came up with names
Funny
You supply how many ProBowls well in my opinion this is a TEAM SPORT individual awards mean nothing i.e. no one watches the pro bowl
You ignore my first comment I made and discount the NFL players present and past who have called him out
I did not say GMC was not Good. I said he is not Great
So go with your TROLL THIS DONKEY THAT
BUT FACT OTHER PLAYERS HAVE SAID THE SAME THING I DO
WHICH TEAM DO YOU PLAY FOR OR WORK FOR
EXACTLY NONE
May 20th, 2018 at 6:35 pm
By the way Chris
I believe you are GMC so please invite me to One Buc Place and let me stand at the Gate Hahah
May 20th, 2018 at 6:53 pm
The are a lot of posters here who I have great respect for especially the guys who have been here forever Capt. Tim & Hawian Buc. Others like Atrain, Realist, too many to name. We are all fans who view things much differently. In all the time I have been here there has only been one other player who had this much love hate that I remember. Barrett Ruud! Even myself and one of the Joe’s would go back and forth which I never do. The comparison to McCoy love hate is very similar. Local media and Joe’s loved Ruud! He was the best thing since sliced bread. National media and some fans who preferred the Hardy Nickerson’s of the world strongly disagreed to the point where it was a constant verbal assault daily like we do now. I did/do not hate either one but what I do hate is the personal attacks. We all watch the same game and come up with our own conclusion. I like my own but do not call people idiots who also could be right. We do root for the sme team!
May 20th, 2018 at 7:32 pm
The anti tmax comments are the equivalent to someone unknowingly sitting on a whoopee cushion.
May 20th, 2018 at 7:36 pm
Well said Jim
I disagree with some but give facts and points of view
I did regress a little bit find it comical that several on here will call you stupid because you have an opposite position
I believe GMC will have a better year because he is a good player I just do not think he has shown the All be Greatness some gold him up as and that real bothers some
I respect the True Fans here
Even. TMAXX (however the personal attack was over the top and classless if true)
May 20th, 2018 at 8:13 pm
You guys just hate that tmax was right about glennon, murphy, martin, vjax, vh3 and the rest of the losers you guys latch onto.
May 20th, 2018 at 8:45 pm
Reality (Trollmax) stop talking in the third person. That’s the Joe’s domain.
May 20th, 2018 at 11:33 pm
This is the year Mr McCoy will thrive and make the play-offs and go to the Super Bowl. I can not wait to see him perform with JPP, Vinny Curry and Vita Vera. Check this out..Noah Spence, Beau Allen, Stevie Tu’ikolovatu and William Gholston are our second string defensive line with Mitch Unrein, Patrick O’conner, and Will Clark also in the mix. That IMO, is not only the best defensive line in football but the deepest defensive line in the game. Finally a pass rush that can stop the run. Not to mention a deep and great group of cornerbacks including Brent Grimes, Vernon Hargreaves, CJ Stewart and Carlton Davis. The defense will play nickle most of the game which will get all of them playing time. I look forward to seeing Justin Evans in his second year along with Chris Conte and Keith Tandy. I look forward to seeing newcomers, Safeties Jordan Whitehead and Godwin Igwebuike.
May 21st, 2018 at 1:16 am
If anybody think GMC isn’t one of the best then they have there head wedged. It’s ok hater….these the same dudes never played a down of football in there lives…Yall are jokes
May 21st, 2018 at 2:21 am
Lamarcus-
True. Every long time poster here has talked badly about one player or another. And everyone has their right to their opinion.
Its the constant hijacking post that have nothing to do with a player, that gets old. WithTmaxipad, every time you see his post- its the same BS on every post, and he post on every article. Thats not voicing your opinion- thats trying to commander the website.
I thought of you, when I thought of McCoy haters.
But With futher thought- I dont recall you single mindedly posting the same thing on every post.
I may have dumped you in with the trolls in error.
If so, I apologize.
Having different opinions is what makes this site( and this country) great.
Trying to prevent oppossing conversations, by corrupting the discussion, is my issue
Peace

Capt Tim,
OMG I love you right now. You named the 3 biggest db know nothings on this site. It’s like those 3 are all interchangable. They all spew garbage in every post, make no sense with their comments and love to respond to each other in the same articles. All parrots, and are probably just Ian beckles regurgitators. So cheers db55, lamarcus, and tmax(soon to be replaced by reality) as the biggest time wasting trolls on here.

Yea so I have opinion that GMC is overrated but u still came with ” your an idoit’ fingerpoint
This is the Joe site and Joe site only. I watch all types of grueling post of my favorite players and it doesn’t bother me cuz I don’t read them. You see how that works. Nobody “hijacked” the post. It’s about GMC and he is trash.
Joe is the God of this site I’ll take my orders from him.

You and cronies are responsible for your own head ache of Tmax. U guys created him and I don’t feel sorry for u guys. Actually it is the funniest thing in the world right now. Ask my wife. She says I’m crazy laughing at my phone. When she asks why I say Tmax is at it again
That’s why I think Tmax is the man. This guy is genius. Virtually baits u guys and u guys go biting yet creating the monster of the commentor he is. Tmax is the greatest commenter on Joebucsfan.

It’s great to hear some good things about Gerald for once. All these so called bucs fans that want to talk bad about him are either stupid or don’t know a dam thing about football. I have watched the best in Leroy Selmon, Rice, Sapp, etc. and Gerald is as good as all of them !! He won’t have to carry the defense anymore and I think he will have a great year !!I’m really excited for this year and our D line !! Now we will have a running game with Barber and Rocketass lol. It’s going to be fun. Go BUCS !! We love you Gerald !!!

Tmax is poisoning this site. If you think hes the greatest poster, then you must be a fan of reading the same comment a thousand times. In which case your wife has every reason to be worried.
Tmaxipad contributes nothing. He doest try to.
He is a troll. They arent new. Trolls go to sites that have a regular base of posters. They learn just enough, to find something offensive and volatile to the support Base. Its What Tmaxi did when he first started posting. He keep posting offensive and derisive topics, until one subject drew the most responses.
Then he post it. Over and over. He keeps posting, until he can hijack every discussion, either with people arguing with him- or peoplel who hate him for being so repetative and annoying. Eventually, the fan base starts to drift to othersites.
That is Tmaxipads only goal. To see if he can take over, and ruin a popular site.
Its the difinition of a troll. They are a particularly useless type of person.
If hes your hero- you have extremely low standards for hero worship
I stopped reading or responding to Tmaxipad long ago. But even when I ignore him, many of the other post are responding to him. So it gets to the point that hes taken over.
I dont know about anyone else- but I was coming here less, and going to other sites more. And this used to be my only Buc site.
Im glad the troll is banished
Im disgusted that I am addressing him again. But this time- its with the hope that Joe knows Tmaxipads motives, and makes the ban permanent.
Tmaxi hurts this site. Ive been here a long time. Id hate to see one troll ruin it for the rest of us

GMC is the best player on either side of the ball. He is a stud. QB play has been pathetic. Turnovers and Wins are the only QB stats that matter. Ours have been abysmal. JW has a chance to flip the script, but fortunately we have a top 10 QB waiting in the wings in the Amish Rifle.
GO BUCS!
