Gerald McCoy Says He Might Play Monday
December 14th, 2017
Gerald McCoy speaks
UPDATED 3:31 p.m. – Those Gerald McCoy tears on the sidelines after a biceps injury against the Lions four days ago may soon turn to smiles.
No. 93 was being coy today in the Bucs’ locker room and called himself a maybe for Monday Night Football against the Falcons.
“Just going to keep rehabbing and do my best. I would like to be. I don’t know yet,” McCoy said regarding whether he expects to be ready Monday night.
Asked if his arm has improved since Sunday, McCoy danced.
“I guess you could say that if you’d like. Whatever,” he said, adding it was a blessing that he got a no-surgery-needed diagnosis.
A one-arm McCoy likely is better than the guys who would replace him. Heck, a one-armed Noah Spence was better last year than most, if not all, of the Bucs defensive ends this season.
UPDATE: – McCoy did not practice today.

Pretty misleading. “I don’t know” does not equal “I might play.”

in honor of GMC’s decision to play on mnf OBP will be giving out candy cane ice cream cones to all fans. Just go to the gate and ask for the gmc candy cane ice cream with rainbow sprinkles and tutti frutti toppings.
December 14th, 2017 at 2:44 pm
Ah…….the power of ice cream!
December 14th, 2017 at 2:55 pm
I’m just gonna leave this right here if that’s cool.

It’s most definitely a pain tolerance thing,” Suggs told reporters on Tuesday. “But it’s also a win tolerance thing. How much do you want to win?”
December 14th, 2017 at 3:03 pm
He ain’t playing. He never met a camera he didn’t like. Shelf him for the season.
December 14th, 2017 at 3:04 pm
DB55- If “ice-cream man” is suiting up, doesn’t that tell you he wants to win? I’m just asking because he could easily fold up shop on the season.
Thanks for making me want ice cream! LOL!

This is 100% a fact. All that crying stuff on the sideline is for putting on a “good show” for his potential free agent market when the Bucs release his under-achieving butt next year.
People did not realize what he was doing……it’s all BS. GMC knows his days around here are numbered in TB.
December 14th, 2017 at 3:15 pm
Buc
I wish he would sit. I want to test the theory that we’re better without him.
December 14th, 2017 at 3:15 pm
this should be good!!!…GO BUCS!!!!
December 14th, 2017 at 3:17 pm
Man, Gerald, don’t do it! The season is over! Do not risk making things worse for yourself. This season has given everyone diarrhea. Every Bucs fan is sleeping on the toilet. No need to come back now. Do what’s right have the surgery. Go Bucs!!! Screw Gruden!!!
December 14th, 2017 at 3:20 pm
Of course he plays he needs sympathy pro bowl votes. Cuz he is looking at missing the pro bowl this year.
December 14th, 2017 at 3:20 pm
Oh my goodness what a warrior he is what a competitor what heart of a champion that is beating in his chest!!!! He is going to try to play during “that time of the month” I am just so filled with pride for having him on our team!
December 14th, 2017 at 3:21 pm
gmc probably will spend more time in make up and tv prep than gruden will. he has to keep the BS front up to continue the fraud
December 14th, 2017 at 3:23 pm
With all that crying gmc did I thot someone died.
December 14th, 2017 at 3:35 pm
DB, I’m kind of thinking he’s B.S.ing! I’m not going to hold my breath on whether he plays.
As far as being better without, that theory has been tested; Stafford called Jimmy Johns for a corned beef sandwich! I heard the driver was stuck in traffic outside of RayJay but still managed to deliver in between the snap and whistle!!!
December 14th, 2017 at 3:44 pm
I like to play devils advocate with the #93 haters. I don’t think I need to name you as its obvious.
Okay, lets assume GMC is waived. Who will replace him in FA and outperform him in 2018? I want to hear current NFL player names not college kids who have proven zero at NFL level and could be a zero in NFL…like Aguayo example. NFL draft is truly crap shoot and we all know it. BTW- per you guys…nobody will trade for GMC cuz he is garbage so lets leave that off the table.
Who will replace #93?
December 14th, 2017 at 3:45 pm
Same dudes with the same comments every thread, you guys have jobs or just cut and paste?
December 14th, 2017 at 3:50 pm
Who will replace #93?

What are the GMC haters gonna say when GMC leaves and we still suck? What are they gonna say we he teams up with actual talent somewhere else and turns into the beast everyone know he Is? Way to go GMC Haters! You have successfully run off our best DT since Sapp and our already dreadful pass rush is even worse. Bravo!

That’s not true I bring new material on the regular. The tutti frutti is only a week old. Lmao
December 14th, 2017 at 3:53 pm
Leave a empty space there and not play, hell we won’t know the difference

Well first of all
#1 He has to be healthy enough to even stay on the field the whole game
#2 He has to have a stupid DC to believe him that he’s an elite DT
#3 He has to players better than him to help him play average on any team
………….if he gets all them things going for him on his new team…then he might have some success.
December 14th, 2017 at 3:59 pm
You guys MUST be masochistic that WANT to see this d-line sans McCoy. Have you watched any games?! We stink with him, what do you think we’ll look like without?!
December 14th, 2017 at 4:02 pm
We suck with gmc or without. At least that is proven. Gmc left the game and we look the same. 🤔🤔🤔

I find it funny how everyone outside of Tampa considers GMC to be elite and I’m sure a vast majority of the coaches in the league agree. All the GMC haters have been brainwashed and flock like sheep to people who claim GMC is the reason for our troubles simply looking for someone to pin it on. Everyone needs a scapegoat, and GMC happens to be the Bucs Fans’ punching bag.
Can’t wait to see what a beast he turns into when he gets paired up with actual talent and a coach that knows how to scheme for him.
December 14th, 2017 at 4:08 pm
The Bucs need a Rambo type of pirate. A pirate that is war ready. Nothing to scare the kids, but a pirate that knows he’s a pirate and not Barney’s next door neighbor. Put some eye black under his eyes and a banda on his head. Change the slogan siege the day is too whimpy. We supposed to be some rowdy pirates. We’re either taking what’s yours or defending what’s ours. We need that Rambo pirate who lets out a electrifying Argh!!!! With the cannons firing. We need an “Everything is ours” type of pirate. New coach. New pirate.

If you watch the tape it’s obvious.
Last week riddick scored his first td (2yards) on the goal line and they ran right to gmc gap, per usual. They tried it again after he got hurt and got stopped. Riddick had to bounce outside and break contain to get anything going.
Lions ran for 53 yards last week, keep in mind Matt’s hand was hurt too.
The week prior GB ran for 200 yards. Week prior to that 150 rushing yards so yea maybe just maybe gmc is hot garbage but wtf do I know.
If he plays it so he can get 3 sacks to ensure a pro bowl birth. And they’ll all come in the first qrt on 2&2.
December 14th, 2017 at 4:24 pm
As I expected, no real answers just silly responses.
December 14th, 2017 at 4:40 pm
I’ll have a good ol’ Ice cream sandwich. He will run through the tunnel and start the game and be crying by halftime. Placed on IR Tuesday morning
December 14th, 2017 at 4:53 pm
That’s true DB👍
December 14th, 2017 at 4:59 pm
DB55
And that’s exactly what this team is missing. That I’m playing through whatever if I can walk. However in a lost season id rather him and every other starter rest. Never gonna happen but I want 3rd overall

Bucs play better without McCoy
December 14th, 2017 at 9:00 pm
But GMC has the best get-off in the NFL. No one gets off the field faster and more often. Colossal waste of money. Bustaneers
December 14th, 2017 at 9:33 pm
The moron squad led by tampax are always good for a few laughs. You yahoos never disappoint. Thank you cos I needed a few chuckles.
December 14th, 2017 at 9:50 pm
Bucs record with mccoy is a dumpster fire so no where to go but up wout him, trade him to pats for a #2

December 14th, 2017 at 10:46 pm
GOD NO! All he’s going to do is risk injury again and lose trade value or could be less fresh for next year. And LVD has a hamstring issue now. Jason, don’t be a dumbarse.
