    Sammys Detroit catch was harder than Beckums

    Beckum does that type of catch as practice. Back in high school i was messing around after school with my gloves on and did the same type of play when my friend overthrough a pass. Sammys on the other hand was absolutley amazing. In a split second he had to react to a poorly thrown ball, then had to slow down his body while tipping the ball toward himself, all the while being in between 3 detroit defenders. Making the catch to set up a game winning field goal. People will forever talk about the wrong catch of 2014

    Sammy will make more of these catches. Don't worry.

      You caught a 50 yard bomb one handed while fighting off a defender and falling backwards with your arm fully extended while keeping 2 feet in bounds and landing on your back in the endzone?

            We should've traded for Cali instead of Sammy.

                Some of you guys act like youve never played football with your friends and had a rediculous catch. Im just saying that if youve played football you cant tell me that if someone asked you to do either catch with the way the gloves are in pro football, that Sammys you probably would catch 1-1000. Beckums you could actually pull.off if you kept trying it

                  One time I was playing with my buddy Rico, but my mom called so I had to go home. I was riding my bike over the mountains when I saw it... Rico went long... I laid out and caught it with one hand.

                  Best catch of all time.

                    It wasn't just a one-handed catch. It was a one-handed, falling backwards, three-fingered, being-interfered-with catch in primetime. Plus, no offense to your friends, but none of them throw with the velocity of Eli Manning.

                      We are debating the merits of two catches from six months ago for two teams that didn't make the playoffs?

                      I hate off-season. And there are still five months left.

                          This post is epic. Can we file this one somewhere in a special category. Hall of Fame post. And together with the question of Joe Fo Shoe. That says it all. I think I have to search the forum for other posts of Cali. Seems to be a promising poster. Hopefully more great posts to come...

                              Draft is in two weeks and minicamps, OTA's, and training camp start in order almost immediately after that.

                              Don't worry there will soon be plenty to ***** about.
                              COMING SOON...
