Lions' Brian Branch: Dan Campbell makes us want to run through a brick wall | PSNFF | NFL on NBC

[@andrewiles1595]

Love the “yes sirs” and how this team is constantly talking about and cheering for and complimenting and fighting for their teammates and how it’s a brotherhood. Zero ego on the squad. We not me.

[@SuperMrgentle]

Good observation. Selfless players who cheer for their teammates more than themselves

[@onceago1]

Legends interviewing also. Much respect

[@DylanSmith-t9l]

They also hold each other accountable for their mistakes.

[@JimSmallwood-np7ed]

Don't forget the love you guys in the locker room

[@annakirk2867]

I have so much respect for this young man. During the draft in Detroit, he was the only player that stayed for Day 2 to walk across the stage. Drafted by Detroit in Detroit. It was meant to be!

[@johndoe-py6yj]

Except he was drafted in 2023 and that draft was in Kansas City

[@annakirk2867]

@johndoe-py6yj you're right. I stand corrected. But, still..

[@BlakeWR81]

He said he decided to stay the second day in KC to walk across the stage because he knew he'd never get the chance again. Even though he was heated, he swallowed his pride and did it. He also knew how much it meant to his mom to see him do it, and all that combined shows you a little bit of his character. He's a very impressive young man.

[@miker.219]

Man what a compliment to get compared to Ed Reed and Troy Polamalu. We're watching the start of a great career.

BB and JKerb are the best safety duo in the league!

[@sicboy83]

No question

[@TehJew22]

You have Kerby "Zuper Star" Joseph, and Brian Branch is Meta Knight. 😀 I mean the Lions already have Gibbs and Montgomery as Sonic and Knuckles, why not Kerby and Meta Knight?

[@jonathanluke2670]

I call them the Smash brothers

[@roems6396]

Best safety duo, best rb duo, and arguably the best OT duo. If Hutch was still in we might have the new best DE duo.

[@mirari_engaged]

Jkerb #1 & BB #2

[@Satchmo613]

Brian Branch just showed the NFL and its viewership what a true professional football player should be in this interview. On the field, a player that is full of skill and heart. Off the field, a man that represents maturity and respect for the Lions organization and its fans.

Amen Brother. William Clay Ford bought the Lions on the week I was born. My whole life has been hope and frustration, yet still love for this team. We are in the group of people that can say we loved the Lions before it was cool. Let’s ride this thing all the way. Peace!

Awesome player and “Yes sr” he is very respectful. Refreshing. Go Lions!!!

[@kevins5011]

Brian Branch, you know he's something special when the network goes out it's way to put the spotlight on you

[@JayJay-jx3zg]

Not since Glover Quinn have we had a Safety this good. We are spoiled watching these guys win. Tough road game, but still pulled it out. Respect to the Texans. EDIT: I can't leave Kerby Joseph out of the mix. Him and Branch are equal to Monty and Gibbs, Goff and ARSB. So many more good players, all the way to special teams (JRM is a huge loss, too). The chemistry these guys have with each other and the team is a testament to this team success.

[@bulletchevyz71]

and we have 2 of them lolol

Love Rodney giving the young man his flowers. BB might be in a gold jacket someday. my guy is a DOG with incredible technique.

[@clintonross1649]

More than flowers tho. Rodney compared Branch to a combination of Micheal Jordan & Lebron James or Ray Lewis & Lawrence Taylor! Rodney called Branch the upcoming GOAT.

[@johnclark6577]

Finally, The Lions have people who know how to build an organization. First, you decide what kind of team you want to be, then you go out and get players that fit firmly within that identity.

[@I_Am_L_3]

Such an obvious thing when u ponder it, yet theres what, maybe less than 10 teams that actually manage that?

[@tromboneman4517]

Less than that to be honest. The only teams that know who they want to be and attain that identity are the Chiefs, Lions, and maybe, MAYBE, the Bills.

[@I_Am_L_3]

@tromboneman4517 right but id also consider teams like baltimore and pittsburgh there too. And now perhaps chargers w jim harbaugh roughly speaking....tho id say the ones you listed are on top of the list for sure

[@johnclark6577]

@@I_Am_L_3 Organizations and fan bases always want to win now! So they make moves to facilitate that, and most times it doesn’t work. I want to win now, too, but I’m realistic. As long as I see progress being made I can be a little more patient. It’s like the Tigers. Each year under Hinch they’ve gotten a little better. I would’ve been happy had they finished at .500. The playoffs was a very pleasant surprise.

[@andresanor8663]

Bro BB is a menace. He was hesitant today on that Metchie touchdown end of the first half, he could have knocked his lights out, he will see that on tape and start using his hands as a point on contact for big hits over the middle in the future. They summed him up perfectly, perfect cross of polamalu presence mixed with thr ballhawking of Ed Reed, but in the end he's a 1 of 1 and a breath of fresh air on the backend along with Zuperman

[@roguesample]

MCDC makes me want to run through a brick wall too and I don’t even play so I get it. I swear if the city doesn’t commission a statue of him I will dedicate my life to sculpting and bronze work just so the man gets the recognition he deserves
