    I just saw this Beckham catch on utube.
    I guess most people already saw it.
    Damn, it might be the best i’ve seen.
    I dunno. Not the most ‘meaningful’, but
    maybe the best athletic catch.

    That’s probably the best catch I’ve ever seen.

    I agree about Swann’s great catch but this catch was really almost superhuman.

    Gonna be hard to beat.

    I like the Tyree catch as the best!

    Yeah, that one was awesome too. Kinda like 1A and 1B.

    The Tyree catch was way more ‘meaningful’ obviously,
    given the circumstances and the fact that all
    virtuous fans loathe the Patriots 🙂

    Not the best ever. But worth remembering.

    I’ll say this about David Tyree–he really used his head on that catch.

    Ta-dum-dum! I’ll be here all week folks.

    I really respect those great sideline catches. This catch by Maclin a few years ago was my favorite because of the concentration required not only to catch and hold on but to also keep his feet inbounds.

    It seems like you see more and more great one-handed catches now than in years past. I bet it has to do with the gloves – better gripping technology.

    3. Billy Waddy against the Cowboys

    2. Flipper Anderson against the Giants

    1. Isaac Bruce against the Titans.

    I don’t care about acrobatics, or all this nancy boy spectacle stuff.

    Those are the three Best Catches I ever saw.

    3 great memories, certainly. Nice job of capitalizing on WV’s decision to not qualify “best”. 😉

    http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/11974020/zach-mettenberger-tennessee-titans-says-odell-beckham-jr-new-york-giants-had-better-catches
    On the O.Beckham catch:

    …”He’s had better,” Mettenberger said Wednesday on a conference call with reporters who cover the Giants. “Both him and [Miami Dolphins and former LSU receiver] Jarvis Landry. That was not a surprise for anyone who’s been around those two guys for the last three years.”

    Mettenberger and the 2-10 Titans host the 3-9 Giants on Sunday in Nashville, and Mettenberger said he expected to be in touch with his former college teammate before then. But they’re unlikely to talk about the catch, since it seems they should both harbor memories of practice catches that left that one in the dust.

    “Trust me,” Mettenberger said. “If you could get your hands on some of the practice film from LSU, you would see what I’m talking about.”

    Beckham’s catch impressed Detroit Lions receiver Calvin Johnson, a receiver many consider the best in the game right now.

    “Everybody knows the catch he made a couple weeks ago,” Johnson said Wednesday. “[It] was the craziest I’ve seen ever, probably.

    “…I’ve never seen a catch like that. Extension and all, that’s crazy.”

    I think because I watched that catch with exhausted relief rather than a paroxysm of joy.

    It was a great catch, no doubt. It would have been better watching it live. By the time I saw the Beckham catch, I was already expecting something miraculous. My question is this? Why didn’t he just run a little faster so he could catch it in stride? 😉
