Really smart signing. Experienced and smart. He upgrades Tanney(finally goodbye thank God)...and can pitch some quality relief innings for Jones if called upon.
But jeeze, you guys really have a vendetta for Tanney though, did he steal your girls?
No, but he was emblematic of a coaching staff that had little regard for maximizing each roster spot. Once DJ took over at QB, Tanney's roster spot could have been used to churn through other teams' practice squads to try to find a hidden gem (a la Boothe and Ward).
There's a lot to like about McCoy as an upgrade, including the fact that he has thrown more than 15 passes in his entire career.
McCoy is good enough to get you by if you have the lead, maybe even a little comeback out of left field. If he’s starting for half the season we are fucked anyway, but his job will be to prepare weekly like he’s going to play, push/teach Jones, push Tanney out, and maybe save a game.
Routinely outplayed several Redskins starting QBs but his size and injury history regulated him to a backup role.
Wouldn't be surprised to see McCoy become a coach after he retires and would be a great mentor and sounding board for Jones.
I'd rather Giants hire a professional backup QB who knows what his role is, than a former starting QB like Flacco, Mariota and others who might have delusions of beating Jones as a starter.
I haven't seem much of him, but career wise, he's had a lot of
I have no opinion if this is a good or bad signing... but to head off all the known naysayers on BBI, I’ll add that he has 14 fumbles in 39 career games ... so of course he’ll fit right in... or so they’ll say.
Love it.

Nothing like getting Philly and Dallas love on a Giants' site. Eff Philly and the Cowboys. Like we give a shit about either of them.

You wanted $40 million for 8 sacks but a big name?
Nope, but we needed a vet backup. McCoy is a decent signing.
I don’t understand some of you.

He's a pretty decent backup to have in case DJ gets hurt.
Not sure why people have issues with this.

Probably just unhappy when it comes to his favorite football team considering how long they've been shit.

That would be too easy; must be something else.

You could share your tissues with him. 🤡
He has played for lousy teams.
