This game, however, is best known for an acrobatic one-handed catch by Odell Beckham Jr. early in the second quarter that is widely regarded as one of the greatest catches in NFL history. A penalty marker flew as he made the catch for pass interference on Brandon Carr, who had been covering Beckham on that play. The catch was also the Giants' 3,000th touchdown in franchise history, including postseason play.
