Deion Branch (groin) says he's feeling better this week and doing everything he can to get the starting nod for Saturday's game against the Dolphins. "One day at a time," Branch said of his status. "I think I've got to go out there and show coach a little more than what I showed him last week and hopefully I'll get the nod that I can go." Branch is shaping up as a game-time decision for Week 16.
