Quote:His very first snap in the game on the opening drive when he drew a holding call on Demar Dotson after he walked him back into McCown's face. The penalty wiped out a 17 yard first down by the Bucs and put them in a 3rd and 19 and essentially killed the Bucs opening drive . Or when he took Dotson wide and created the gigantic blitzing lane that Telvin Smith ran through to rush McCown into the throw on the Guy pick 6. That seems like a pretty nice accumulation of big plays for a guy who only played 3 series, and mostly in a subpackage role.



There wasn't a single snap I believe the Babich would grade Branch negatively on in his film review. Maybe a discombobulated twist with Marks that was a timing issue between the two that you can typically expect in the first preseason game.
