We've highlighted Giants receiver Odell Beckham's skills before, but this is unreal. Check out the athleticism he employs to snag this ball with one hand and still make it into the end zone. Even Al Michaels couldn't believe what he'd seen, and he's seen everything.

Catch It Like Beckham.
He actually practices catching balls with one hand every day. Practice works. So does athletic ability. Perhaps the best catch of my time and I’m 63.
Almost everyone is saying it is the greatest catch ever, hard to argue against it.
No way!
(Great gif!)
So, what was the flag for?
Greatest catch, top 5 for sure.
Looked like offensive pass interference to me.
This is awful.
And flags were thrown. LOL. What a joke the NFL has become.
wearing a Dallas uniform.
It was truly amazing! Go Gints!
This is awful.
Really incredible.
I suspect those gloves they all wear helped. I remember Fred Biletnikov used to put stickum all over his hands back before they used gloves.
He’s going to wind up with 300 yards in catches, the Cowboys have no answer for him.
Amazing! Right up there with teh David Tyree helmet catch!
Go Big Blue!
I don’t follow ,or understand, football but good lord,that’s impressive.

bttt
I’ve seen plenty of one handed catches, I had some myself in college, but he snatched the ball as it was spiraling through his hand. Usually one handers put the palm on the end of the ball and wrestle it in. His snatching it like that while fully extended is the best I’ve ever seen or heard of. Unbelievable.
***Sigh*** is that your "words" for tonight?
Seen it on 3 different threads.
Or are you looking in the mirror? :-)
