The Catch

FYI the OBJ catch was from a regular season Sunday Night Football game against the Cowboys. The Giants actually lost.

 

Pearsalls is 100 times better because he did it in orange and blue

 

It is probably the most impressive 1 hand catch I’ve seen (including the OBJ catch), just because it was a BACKHANDED 1 hand catch with the ball already past him (so he literally had to snatch it back with 1 hand to get possession), and he also did this in heavy traffic where he knew he’d be hit. The other similar catches everyone thinks of were more “jump ball” situations, not with the WR being led into a hit.

I do wonder if this catch would have been possible without the targeting rules or against an SEC defense, because really that safety could/should have layed him out and popped the ball loose.

 

Shoot, you’re right. Got my catches mixed up. That was Tyree’s catch I was thinking about.

 

Can't totally disregard the Mario Manningham catch from the other Eli Manning Giants Super Bowl.

 

Correct me if wrong, but wasn't that catch Giants vs. Cowboys? If yes, it wasn't the Superbowl.

Edit: @staticgator beat me to it.

 

Yep, I mixed up two catches lol.

 

I saw this earlier but forgot to post it. Thanks to @Gatorrick22 for sending it to me and reminding me to make sure everyone gets to see it:

 

Gotta hurt ASU fan.

 

I have to say that I just noticed that someone else beat me to it...

 

Luckiest but not best. Like finding an Easter egg.

 

I want one

 

They’ve embedded a really small glimpse of it The Catch now on the SEC Nation intro song, “Take the Party Wherever we Go”
