Gerald McCoy, Captain Obvious: Tyler Palko Is No Tom Brady

This might be the most captain obvious statement in the history of captain obvious statements but I'll go ahead and say it anyway: Tyler Palko is no Tom Brady. The Kansas City Chiefs QB faced the Tampa Bay Buccaneers last week in a fairly unmemorable performance and now the Bucs are saying Palko didn't come close to preparing them for Tom Brady.

The Bucs, on Thursday night, lost to the New England Patriots and DT Gerald McCoy made it pretty clear that A.) the Chiefs didn't prepare them for the Pats and B.) he has no idea who Palko is.

"(Linebacker) Mason Foster? He needed to see Tom Brady. He didn't see to see Calabaloo from last week, whatever the dude's name was. I'm sorry if you can hear this. I don't know who you were, I'm sorry. It's nothing personal," McCoy said.

"Tyler Palko?" a reporter asked.

"Falko, yeah, the replacement. He needed to see Tom Brady," McCoy responded.

So...yeah.
