Gerald McCoy Wearing A Boot
October 14th, 2018The locker room scene did not look good for six-time Pro Bowler Gerald McCoy.
Joe saw McCoy wearing the dreaded boot on his right foot/leg. Fans watching at home saw him leave the game in the fourth quarter and limping on the sidelines.
Usually, the boot means at least one missed game, typically two or three. Don’t expect an official report from the Bucs until Wednesday.

When are we gonna FIRE MIKE SMITH?!?
October 14th, 2018 at 5:00 pm
30 points before half, THATS THE BUCCANEER DEFENSE
October 14th, 2018 at 5:01 pm
It’s not like it’s gonna make a difference on the field, I hope he is ok for his sake but as far as football is concerned he is a non factor.
October 14th, 2018 at 5:02 pm
Good! Put him on ir this year because the Bucs can go 4-12 without him so they can cut him and save cap space.
October 14th, 2018 at 5:03 pm
No one saw this coming.
October 14th, 2018 at 5:03 pm
Damn, I hope it isn’t too serious. He is too valuable as trade bait. We should be able to get a 3rd or 4th rounder for him.
October 14th, 2018 at 5:05 pm
What is defense? I don’t know because I’m a buccaneer fan
October 14th, 2018 at 5:05 pm
He injured it dancing around on the sideline like a complete idiot. Even the announcers were like does he understand they are losing. While everyone is saying this D sucks remember McCoy is the leader and face if this train wreck.
October 14th, 2018 at 5:06 pm
Gerald McCoy in the game today – ZERO SACKS, ZERO TACKLES!! Not even a damn stat!! Him being injured will mean absolutely NOTHING for the Bucs D. Maybe they actual play BETTER?? Can’t play much worse…
October 14th, 2018 at 5:08 pm
Mike Smith is the leader of this piss poor defense. He needs to be fired immediately

A washed up always injured career loser with a track record of quitting on coaches and during games has no trade value thus cancer93 has zero trade value unless joe becomes a gm or Gruden wants him.
October 14th, 2018 at 5:08 pm
bunjim right on, he didnt get it from being on the field it must have been his happy dance
October 14th, 2018 at 5:09 pm
Well how about that ..we’re tied for last ..cellar dwellers ..woohoo!
October 14th, 2018 at 5:10 pm
Meanwhile JPP continues to prove his worth on the D line
October 14th, 2018 at 5:12 pm
The Bucs, defense I 31st in the league, no reason to dance, the Bucs the most creative dumbest play to end a game and they have had many a blunder, like Joe said, you got big receivers, use them, the Bucs, let Matt Bryant walk, he kicks a 50+ yard FG and gets hurt. the Bucs, can we get a running TD, just once. the Bucs, I knew when Hump didn’t score on the 51 yarder, it was a potential for the team not to score, the Bucs, why don’t we roll Jameis out anymore
October 14th, 2018 at 5:12 pm
Well i guess the GMC haters will have two things to be happy about tonight: The Bucs lost, and GMC got hurt.
October 14th, 2018 at 5:13 pm
Koetter AND Smith need to go. 30-41, 495, 4 TD and 2 INTs. Oh yea…..ANOTHER LOSS!
October 14th, 2018 at 5:13 pm
This team needs to be BLOWN UP!
October 14th, 2018 at 5:14 pm
can we beat Cleveland North at home? they lost to SD 38 – 14
October 14th, 2018 at 5:14 pm
Thy REALLY need to make a statement and trade someone before the deadline.
October 14th, 2018 at 5:15 pm
First down,
You must have Loved McCoys tryout for dancing with the stars! Quality performance on the sideline where he does his best routines.
October 14th, 2018 at 5:15 pm
Joe’s last sentence says it all with a MINOR tweak.
Don’t expect an official report from the Bucs until “the end of the year”.
October 14th, 2018 at 5:16 pm
Doesn’t matter we are still the worse defense in the NFL. What a joke. Hope he is ok.
October 14th, 2018 at 5:17 pm
It’s not gonna make a difference with McCoy being out. So far this season he’s been invincible. What i dont understand is why were the two leaders of the Bucs defense dancing on the sidelines while they were losing?
October 14th, 2018 at 5:17 pm
Bucs playing checkers in a chess league. Question has to be-what changes Mike Smith? The D looks confused and scared. Ownership is doing no any favors keeping status quo. Show some guts Mr. Glazer.
October 14th, 2018 at 5:17 pm
2 and 3 for the third year runnning.
Remind me again why everyone was so confident about Dirk coming back this year.
October 14th, 2018 at 5:18 pm
Baker Mayfield will have the best game of his career next week. Carl Nassib will try to sneak back on the plane to go to Cleveland.
October 14th, 2018 at 5:20 pm
He should get fitted for roller skates; might help the pass rush. Outside of JPP, just pathetic.
October 14th, 2018 at 5:21 pm
Everyone is deflecting from the real reason we are losers, bad decision making and accuracy issues.
October 14th, 2018 at 5:22 pm
Bucnjim
How many times have we seen the same movie: “Good player in Tampa leaves, our “fans” can’t get him out fast enough, he wins a SB in another town”. When will we learn that we need more good players, not less.
October 14th, 2018 at 5:22 pm
oh Gee………..McCoy Injured again
Oh Gee……….McCoy will miss a few games again
Oh Gee……….McCoy played another non-factor game
Oh Gee……….The defense still played good with McCoy being out
SMH………………Captain Blowout needs to be traded for 3rd rd pick…..get something for him because he doesn’t strike fear in anyone’s heart or team cause he’s too busy apologizing while hitting people
I wish this team had three more JPPs on the D-Line…..
October 14th, 2018 at 5:22 pm
What is defense? Does such a thing exist in buccaneer land?
October 14th, 2018 at 5:23 pm
great stats though, should look good in ginger Joe’s rebuttal articles
October 14th, 2018 at 5:26 pm
If McCoy ever wants to win a Super Bowl he should want to move on
October 14th, 2018 at 5:26 pm
We need a coach with some FIRE in his belly. Jim Schwartz.
October 14th, 2018 at 5:29 pm
Hope its not the same type of injury as Vita Vea
October 14th, 2018 at 5:30 pm
Somewhere out there poor Ryan Smith is probably scrambling to catch up to the team bus and or charter flight. Vea is still working his way out of his stance. Our LBs are running still running around the I-75 loop vs attacking blocks. Grimes is still aging. MJ Stewart is stomping the concrete out of his shoes. Our other DBs are confused about how to board the flight home. JPP is wondering why the Giants were so cruel. Beau Allen is gouging his eyes out with a cheesesteak. Julio Jones is still wide open….and Geraldini is still an inconsequential player whether healthy or injured.
October 14th, 2018 at 5:31 pm
Hopefully it isn’t too bad. Sucks because we just got a couple of guys back. Was hoping we’d see that rotation come together.
Are there any more questions regarding coaching?! At least we woke up in the 2nd half!!! Too little too late!
I wonder if they miss Chris Conte in the secondary?! (rhetorical!)
October 14th, 2018 at 5:32 pm
I wish him the best. But with this scheme and the rookies it really does not matter. What is baffling is how is it that we can stop Atlanta and Pittsburg in the second half but not in the first half? Isn’t that a coaching problem?
October 14th, 2018 at 5:34 pm
Pat Pete is available if they wish to have a chance to save this season. Make a move.
October 14th, 2018 at 5:35 pm
Ressurection
Especially when Atl used a couple of Chicago’s plays from last week, you’d think they’d recognize them after all that.
October 14th, 2018 at 5:42 pm
Didn’t even notice Aunt Geraldine was out. No news here. Keep walking.
October 14th, 2018 at 5:43 pm
Since we have the tag line America’s QB I think we should now refer to McCoy as Sir Dance a lot!
October 14th, 2018 at 5:44 pm

October 14th, 2018 at 5:47 pm
He’ll have to eat his ice cream laying down…… poor fella.
October 14th, 2018 at 5:53 pm
McCoy should move on if he wants to win a super bowl? What makes you think he cares about that. Answer this how many times have you heard Geraldine talking about playoffs? Now how many times have you heard Geraldine talking about having fun.
This roster does need to be blown up, I’m all for guys having fun but did you see those three idiots dancing and having fun while there were down on the scoreboard basically about to lose the game? Then you still have to go get a stop. Kwon, Geraldine and Taylor….Coward Koetter doesn’t care about losing he’s scary and the team takes on the personality of their coach and I’m tired of being the joke of the league. Why care if your still a millionaire? Kwon will get paid and he should be a weak side linebacker because lvd seems to battling Father Time at 30. Bye Geraldine, lvd it’s just time for new voices and a new face. If Winston doesn’t get 20 mil well he doesn’t deserve it, you can blow it up now and get a top pick in the draft, your gonna lose anyway
October 14th, 2018 at 6:25 pm
Should have traded him before the draft. I said he’d get hurt early, he always does. This team is a joke. Licht, Koetter and Smith should all be fired immediately. They aren’t even mediocre. They’re just bad.
October 14th, 2018 at 6:26 pm
Maybe if the Bucs stopped paying them they might figure it out. Doubtful.
October 14th, 2018 at 6:59 pm
Oh no…now our defense will suck. He will have plenty of time to read his comic
Books
October 15th, 2018 at 9:35 am
Going to be interesting to see how they replace him. Will Vea be playing in his spot?
Gerald rocks, but now someone is going to get an opportunity.
October 15th, 2018 at 10:52 am
Start trading players that have some value for draft picks. McCoy should be shopped around to a team that has a chance at making the playoffs. Yes , he is soft, but he didn’t always play that way. 9 seasons of losing will do that to s guy. Even a nice guy like him. I believe he can still help a team, and it would help us if he packs his locker and leaves.
