Branch: "Anybody who want me, come find me"

T.J. Houshmandzadeh wasn't the only Seahawks receiver to partake in some noteworthy honking Sunday in Dallas.

After Deion Branch scored his first touchdown of the year (on a gorgeous throw by Matt Hasselbeck), Branch ran to the television cameras and was heard saying, "Y'all come find me. Anybody who want me, come find me."

Branch could have meant something different, but that sounds like the pleas of a player who wants to suit up elsewhere. The Seattle Times thought that it sounded like a "nationally televised classified ad for his receiving services."

Seahawks coach Jim Mora had a different interpretation. "Sounds like a challenge to me," Mora said. "Sounds like he's competing and challenging people to come cover him."

Branch has struggled with injuries in Seattle, and is struggling to settle in as a third receiver, with only 130 yards on the season. Due $5.47 million next season, it would be a shock if Branch wasn't found released in the offseason.
