Not Panthers related; but figured some would find it of interest.

Geez, I hate to hear it for him, or anyone. I really thought he spent a lot of time here last season making "business decisions" in the run game and falling on some piles for a sack, but still, I wouldn't wish that injury on anyone. Hope he heals up well.

32 years old and 300 pounds, that's likely the end of his career. He wasn't as good for us last year as I had hoped, but he's had a hell of a career, and, by all accounts, is a hell of a guy. hate to see this happen to him.

Might be a blessing for him.  With how covid affects the heart and lungs especially on overweight people, 300 pounders might be better served sitting this season out honestly.

I really wish we could have seen him and KK together last season.  Oh well

I really like McCoy although his run defense here was definitely a part of the issue last year.  On paper, him and Poe were supposed to be a lot better. 

 

4 years ago, he and Poe WERE a lot better.

    • He can’t even learn to run routes. No chance in hell he can do both that and pick up blocking schemes 
    • Well he had essentially a 70% completion rate for almost three thousand yards.  Biggest issues were awkward and inconsistent release.  I wouldn't call arm strength bad, but not great.    
    • I see him being better and most of that is a few downfield passes that were seemingly non existent.    But it is what is around him that has dictated the trajectory more than the quarterbacking. He is game manager level and unable to dictate to defenses.  And even if I am wrong and he is the reason we ‘upwarded’, we are bumping our heads on the ceiling and only making meager gains. If it is an incline it is awfully shallow degree wise. Like a finance graph that tracks your progress and hovers around the rate of inflation. Barely breaking even.  Is that where you want your money?  We make up these deadlines expectations and generally he does the minimum of what he needs to do to hang around.    It does not encourage me to believe that when we get into a game against a good run d that we cannot break down with our run game, to believe that we can pivot to the air and successfully counter their strategy.  But they run it back again. Of course I am gunshy of a repeat of the same thing we have watched for three years.    oh, and yes his durability is his most impressive positive for my money. I fear the other shoe dropping on that and the contractual consequences that will follow.   Last  of all, too late to edit my mistake here but would like to acknowledge it: the last three years has done very little to convince me that I was not wrong in not wanting him. One too many “not”s.
