NewEra Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 (edited) “I’m a Buffalo Bill, you know I can’t pick the patriots. I want the rams to win”. They grilled him twice on the beatdown accusations. He didn’t seemed worried about it all. Wasn’t as animated as I thought he’d have been regarding that situation. Didn’t really talk about the bills too much. He bet on adrian Broner vs manny. Lol. Broner is an idiot.

Alphadawg7 Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 (edited) Gave McCoy the opportunity to tell his side of the story on the off field stuff. Discussed if he was worried it would impact his career, which he isn’t and said team was behind him. Discussed a little about his year and McCoy cited the significance of losing their “best lineman” in Incognito, and also Wood and Glenn. Also mentioned how tough it is to have 4 QBs in 16 games due to injuries, especially to their “star rookie”. But said he’s confident in Beane and McD to get the right pieces and expects to be in playoffs as he doesn’t feel we are that far off. Then they discussed if penalties should be challengeable, McCoy and Stephen A both said no they shouldn’t be while Max said yes. Then discussed if Rams can pressure and get to Brady. McCoy said if Rams blitz Brady he will make them pay. Said he’s a Buffalo Bill and picks Rams, but needs to get pressure up middle, not from blitzing or Brady will make them pay. McCoy was then asked about Wentz and Foles and he was very complimentary of both QBs. They put him on spot who he would want if he was on Eagles and in playoff game, admits he is biased because Foles is his friend so he would take Foles but was very complimentary on Wentz still and said he’s a baller.

When did you say this season: "man, McCoy's really hustling out there, but just can't get it done"? What superstar RB would sit around as he was given 18 carries over the final 3 games of the season? He was kicking back, waiting for next season. And along those lines....It would be uncommon, particularly for McD, to take the most significant vet on the team and schoolboy him like that in front of the whole team unless there was a LOT more to McCoy's behavior or attitude.

I'm sure McCoy dogged it especially at the end. Sure there's more to it since coaches give preferential treatment to vets. Bet there's something more to it.. like being late several times on top of dogging it and generally giving up on the year (which again, can definitely see a vet like McCoy wondering what's the point when he's been around so much. Nevertheless a bad example on a young team) Favre being the laziest veteran for over 10 years on the Packers was one of the NFL's best kept secrets.. unless it wasn't as much of a secret as I had thought.. idk. His biography, Gunslinger, was pretty enlightening to me and really hilarious at how many POS stories he got away with for being the top dog in Green Bay for so long. The Falcons chapter was epic. Nobody ever seems to remember he was the OG Johnny Manziel in Atlanta. Edited January 23, 2019 by BarkleyForGOATBackupPT5P 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fixing the O-line will help everyone. And with 3 starters from last year hitting UFA and likely not to be back in anything other than a backup role, shots can be taken at the O-line as a whole.

Turk71 Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 I think it is a mistake keeping McCoy. Even catching passes he made no one miss and looked like he just wanted to run out of bounds most of the time.
