Quote:I don't have an agenda. I've been a Branch supporter all along, have never bashed him and have disagreed with many of the negative takes on him over the past 2 years.  I can even stomach his windmill dance as long as we aren't down by 30 points.   I sincerely just think he has yet to show the ability shown by the DE's that people call "stars."  It's great that he's effective this year and I hope it continues and improves. I never negated any of his sacks and I think he's made some great plays this year. I'm excited about his potential. 

 

It would just be great to see him shed the block quickly and get to the QB.   I haven't seen him do that yet. The top tier pass rushers do that.   I'm not even saying he can't do it.  I wouldn't be surprised if this is the year that it comes together for him.  So far I see him being very effective - but nothing he's done is "star" material IMO.  I don't see what's wrong with that take.
