During the Raiders - Broncos game tonight, Mike Maycock stated that Tyvon Branch was the top defensive player for the Raiders.

I realize that is like being called the top offensive player for the 2012 Huskies, but still pretty cool.

They just said best tackling safety in the league

I like Tyvon, but that reminds me of Jason Sehorn being praised for his tackling.

I'd rather not have my secondary guys be great tacklers. Means they're chasing after guys a lot.

You're seriously not comparing Tyvon to Sehorn right?

Do you think Ed Reed is a good tackler? I think You want your safeties to hit nightmarishly hard.

When I played, and I was terrible. Getting stuck by a lightning quick safety was probably the most painful thing that could happen outside of a broken femur.

I've seen the Raiders a few times and Branch is all over the field. Proof that 1) the rest of the Raiders defense is God awful and 2) Branch has quite a NFL motor and is representing UConn football very well. I root for him to make consecutive Pro Bowls (who else on Oakland will??).

I want them to hit hard. I'd rather the DL pressured the QB and they broke up passes.
