I've seen a lot of games in my %# years on this planet and have to say that catch is No. 1 on my all time list. Even in freeze frame it's hard to see how he did it. Unfuhking believable.
Best catch of the year? No doubt. Best catch ever made? Might want to tap the brakes on that one. Look at some of Dez's catches. Fitz. Megatron. Tyree's catch in the SB. Dwight Clark's The Catch. Just to name a few.
Tyree's catch is still the best ever...only because of the stage. Had the Giants won last night, it would be a close second, but I'd put Lynn Swann's catch in a Super Bowl in the 70's as second. Then Beckham's.
Something like 'best catch ever' is one of those subjective things that everyone will never agree on but beckams will be in the conversation now.
Co-workers and I were trying to come up with a name for that catch last night. Best name we come up with is 3 finger reach around. Any other ideas? Lol
