Vintage @OBJ_3 with sliding TD catch in corner of end zone from Eli Manning in red zone drill.
Nothing CB Valentino Blake could do. #Giants
I thought Blake was in tight coverage and the ball was just past his coverage to a spot only Eli could cover.
Couldn't even see Blake in the screen from that angle. I agree that there probably wasn't anything Blake could have done given the pass but it's not like it was tight coverage either.
Not trying to be argumentative, but what makes you think it would be overturned? It looks clean to me with him maintaining control throughout the catch and the knee comes down in bounds. I'm curious what you are seeing that causes you to question the catch.

Right? Maybe that was Stapleton's point... since Blake wasn't even in the frame, there was nothing he could do?
his hands under it. Is that what caused him to maintain possession "through the catch" or not?
Splitting hairs I know. Seen sillier calls made.
I seen that but from my take is the ball was in control before making contract and the contact did not jostle the ball. OBJ has firm control before going to the ground and maintains that control all the way through. But I will agree, it could be reason to overturn the call. We have all seen calls that makes us question what we saw.
MAYBE IF ODELL ME FIRST BECKHAM SHOWED UP TO RECENT VOLUNTARY WORKOUTS THESE 2 COULD'VE BEEN MORE ON THE SAME PAGE AND THIS TD COULD'VE HAPPENED IN STRIDE
I kid, I kid
I kid, I kid
YAC in the end zone?
The new three point conversion.

What is your logic to come to that conclusion. OBJ maintains control of the ball throughout and the knee touches the ground inbounds.

I'll take a shot: NFL refs are deplorable.
Now with the 2 hand touch the were playing, probably not.
With the bellies on those refs, Looks like I would fit right in. Still may be hope for me.

Ball is on ground
- A Joseph that lives in Virginia
It would not surprize me one way or the other the call was made. It would definitely be a hat thrower, but surprised? No.
Beckham already showed you this when the ball slid with him touching the ground the while time.
