Gerald McCoy Getting Props

December 7th, 2010

gerald mccoy 1207Gerald McCoy was born the wrong year.

Or was it Ndamukong Suh?

The two monster defensive tackles, drafted Nos. 2 and 3 in this spring’s draft — Suh by the Lions and GMC by the Bucs — will forever be linked by both team’s fans despite the fact they are far different players.

Bitter beer-faced Bucs fans grumble throughout the night that GMC isn’t putting up near the numbers that Suh is, never mind that Suh is surrounded by a far better cast of teammates on the defensive line which, of course, he takes advantage of.

Dixie Chicks center Todd McClure won’t join the Bucs fans racked with irritable bowel syndrome over the fact GMC’s numbers are not like Suh’s, as chronicled by eye-RAH! Kaufman of the Tampa Tribune.

“That rookie defensive tackle (Gerald) McCoy, he’s going to be a great player for a long time. He’s got a lot of moves and he never stops. He’s got a great motor and you can’t try to block him the same way because he’ll give you a counter-move and get past you. There’s no doubt in my mind he’s going to be an outstanding player in this league.’‘

Color Joe a sap, but Joe would rather take the input from a guy who has had to tangle with GMC in hand-to-hand combat as opposed to a jumble of numbers on NFL.com.

    Nice to hear good things from the Falcons, I wish they would have earned either of those wins against us. Oh well, next year.

    I don’t know guys, the amazing football genius (aka Thomas 2.1) still thinks he is a bust. It’s such a tough call on who has more credibility.

  6. bucfanjeff Says:

    Appreciated and not surprised.
    I was a McCoy fan (over Suh) from the beginning.

  7. Apple Roof Cleaning Says:

    That’s THE highest compliment a Falcon can pay a Tampa Player.

    I don’t know Hawaiian Buc-I think the Glazers are paying this guy and Steve White off to say good things about Mccoy.Its just a ploy by the sheep to make Thomas look bad.We all kow that Thomas and Buc you(Racist)are the only true Buc fans on this site……….(Idiots)

  9. Hawaiian Buc Says:

    Don’t forget Eric, he’s a longtime Buc fan!

    Sorry-I forgot he came out from under his rock.

  11. Jamie Says:

    I just bought a McCoy jersey yesterday.

  12. Dave Says:

    I agree. McCoy has been steadily getting better and has had pretty bad DE play most the year. He is not a problem at all. LB play is.

    I’d say that too if I were a competitive team in the same division.
