Before the injuries, genuinely one of the twitchiest receivers I’ve ever seen. Dude was uncoverable off the line, THEN untouchable when he got the ball in his hands
@zen view AB numbers is better than some receivers in the HOF in his prime he was arguably the best receiver in the game had 7 straight 1000 yard seasons made the 2010 All decade team 7x pro bowler 4x 1st team all pro and AB is a super bowl champ u can hate all u want but u can’t deny how great AB was 🤷🏾♂️
Football is a crazy sport. Even a talent like OBJ isn’t guaranteed longevity. Imagine if he played as well as he did in his rookie year for a decade- he’d be the GOAT lol. But he didn’t. Today in 2022, 8 years later, he’s still relevant for sure, but he’s in NO conversation as one of the top receivers today.
Before injuries, age and prima dona behavior he was one of the best receivers in the game. The man could make more money catches than just about anyone else for a good 3 or so year stretch.
I won my Fantasy league. Simply because a guy dropped ODJ after week 4 and I picked him up. I already had AB, Lev Bell and Big Ben. I ran away with the championship.
Lord almighty, what happened to Odell man 😞. Remember watching him as a senior in HS and thought he was on his way to surpassing Rice/Moss/Owens 15 years down the line!
Good kid very misunderstood. The only thing in New York I was uncomfortable with was how he talked about Eli who threw him all those footballs. Another first ballot Hall of famer.
Okay he’s nowhere near this level of play. But he’s still such a talented player. That browns era held him back. Kids going down as one of the greats of this era
Man the giants started alot of those games behind on the scoreboard, you almost feel sorry for them. Odell was one of the few bright spots on that team.
As a giants fan idk why we decided to trade him after we just paid him a year earlier. Man I miss obj best and most talented wr we ever had in our franchise when healthy top 3 wr in his prime
He didn’t even play the whole season and was hurt for the first few games imagine what he could have done that season without being put a couple of games He had already broke the rookie receiving record Could have possibly broke the all time season receiving record
If Odell just stayed out of trouble,focus on football more he still be with NY Giants.Probalbly HOF career,but got his SB ring with LA Rams later in career
@@boppityboopy114 Yeah, that’s what I was trying to say. He was great in 2014, 2015, and 2016. 2017 he was injured, 2018 and 2019 he hit 1k yards those 2 season. 2020 he got injured. The beginning of his 2021 season started rough in Cleveland, however when he went to LA he had a strong 2nd half and got his first SB ring.
@@Splappa09Gaming Eli got clobbered by the Redskins DL Rodgers in 2016, too. I was at that game and the TV didn't do that hit any justice. We did not think he was getting up.
Manning, Cruz, Barckly, I thnk there highlight reel plays rejuvenated the D. And was Coughlyn the coach his rookie year? At the same time this Giant team Reminds me of a Holgrome team, I wonder who was better in there prime The cheetah, or bend that big dilz like beckham?
man its crazy that i got to see all this unfold. i remember he missed the first 4 games and just came in and became a superstar. iconic
Same, it was incredible. Instant superstar the best player on the field on game days
Great times
He’s coming back soon
Miss these days bro 😭
Odell was a lot more than one great catch before the injuries hit
Hey I see you In all the old nfl films and nfl content videos just like myself even some good old school college football content !
@@ericpackers1700 I think he must be an Og.
But How ever Still end up getting a Superbowl ring
Yup came back just thinkin of the fact people really say that bs
Before the injuries, genuinely one of the twitchiest receivers I’ve ever seen. Dude was uncoverable off the line, THEN untouchable when he got the ball in his hands
Dude was the definition of ELUSIVE!
Idc if u hate him love him u can’t deny that through 2014 -2017 he really had the league in a chokehold was one the most popular players
Amen to that
i really forgot how insanely athletic he was.. damnn injuries
Last 9 Games
81 - 1,199 - 9
If you translate that to a 17 game season
153 - 2,265 - 17
Insane
They hurt him on purpose, the db that injured him on the chargers don’t even play anymore lil
I don’t get it, which stats are which on the top
What does that mean
@@easymoneyradare u dumb
I still wish he had more time with Saquon and Eli.
Coming soon
Your prime is after your contract 26-32 or 33 but yea Odell and Eli connection was unmatched
Most talented receiver ever
There’s noone like him and there will NEVER be 🔥
HOT TAKE: people say Eli wasted his prime but I think Eli helped him become what he was.
100% correct. For a couple years they had no running game and the whole offense was Eli and Odell
Who said that? People who don't know anything about football?
Baker did if anything
bro you're 100% correct thank you, he gave Odell all those chances and throws to make his career what it is
That offense was Eli and Odell.
Hawks fan here, This was the odell that i liked. Hell of a ride his rookie year for sure.
What in the world is the hawks
@@saivedula Seahawks
@@bigbird9888 Thanks bro I was so confused never heard someone call the Seahawks hawks maybe that’s just me
@@saivedula well there's Atlanta Hawks in NBA but since we're in NFL territory he is referring to Seahawks
@@fraud23 yeah ik but hawks and Seahawks didn’t come to my mind that’s why I was confused
i still miss eli mannings snap cadence calls... been so long since we last heard him
As a seahawks fan. Rookie contract OBJ before injuries could go up against any WR in history 🤷🏻♂️ dude was electric
he was the best rookie WR i’d ever seen at the time. absolutely dominant, torching top DBs like prime Richard Sherman right from the jump
Giants Odell was different
I’m saying bro. Giants Obj was top 2 best receiver in that whole era. I miss those days man time flies fr 😔
7:58 is my 2nd favorite OBJ catch. MY #1 OBJ catch is the three finger one handed catch man's the reason why one handed catches became popular
Definitely my 2nd favorite too. The concentration was insane
ALL of the greatest NYG plays of the 21st century have Chris Collinsworth commentating. Truly classic moments in time.
Coming back to this 🥲 definitely going to miss Odell
Him and Antonio had a bright path to the HOF🤦🏾♂️
AB could still make it his career numbers are better than some guys in the hall of fame
@zen view AB numbers is better than some receivers in the HOF in his prime he was arguably the best receiver in the game had 7 straight 1000 yard seasons made the 2010 All decade team 7x pro bowler 4x 1st team all pro and AB is a super bowl champ u can hate all u want but u can’t deny how great AB was 🤷🏾♂️
Giants odell was one of the greatest recievers of all time
That entire season got overshadowed by the catch against the cowgirls
Still remember like yesterday when I saw OBJ with that 3 fingers catch touchdown on my Cowboys I jawdrop and shock but my team still won that game lol
The best rookie Season I think. Did all this while missing 4 games and the offense was just him and Eli playing toss.
Football is a crazy sport. Even a talent like OBJ isn’t guaranteed longevity. Imagine if he played as well as he did in his rookie year for a decade- he’d be the GOAT lol. But he didn’t.
Today in 2022, 8 years later, he’s still relevant for sure, but he’s in NO conversation as one of the top receivers today.
Top 3 before the injuries. Clean route running, great acceleration/speed, and good hands
So happy for this upload. So many “football lovers” talk about him being overrated. Dude was top 3 for years imo!
Remember this like it was yesterday, 9 years ago is crazy lol
Before injuries, age and prima dona behavior he was one of the best receivers in the game. The man could make more money catches than just about anyone else for a good 3 or so year stretch.
rookie saquon, healthy odell, and prime Eli is literally a dream offense
He was exceedingly and abundantly faster than everyone else
If Odell never got hurt he was headed to Canton
He’s would have been co super bowl mvps with Kupp
@@goldeneve it wouldnt have been co it would have just been odell
I almost forgot how special Odell really was. I see why folks cape for him so hard.
Bro he was generational, maybe the most versatile offensive player ever, he can do it all
Better than Ja’Marr Chase rookie season at a statistical standpoint
Damn these Eli and Odell memories man
His New York Giants day were everything
I won my Fantasy league. Simply because a guy dropped ODJ after week 4 and I picked him up. I already had AB, Lev Bell and Big Ben. I ran away with the championship.
Watching this getting ready for Nabers
Lord almighty, what happened to Odell man 😞. Remember watching him as a senior in HS and thought he was on his way to surpassing Rice/Moss/Owens 15 years down the line!
He ain't done, he'll be back.
He was on his way his first 4 years
Good kid very misunderstood. The only thing in New York I was uncomfortable with was how he talked about Eli who threw him all those footballs. Another first ballot Hall of famer.
Greatest rookie season for a WR EVER. Better than Puka Jettas Chase. You name it. What Odell did in 12 games as rookie will never be topped
insane how he has literally the best catch of all time ever 🤝
This was the year of the so-called “Odell” theatrics with the one handed catches and some spectacular plays, since then, he hasn’t been the same guy
EXACTLY!
Injuries ruined him the talent is still there after his rookie year he has 3 more 1000 yard seasons
Odell was amazing during playoffs this year so he still got it just doesn’t have that “carry the team” role anymore
2014, 2015, 2016, 2017 (injured year) and 2018 he had AMAZING AND UNREAL plays all those years, don’t he stupid
@@brewproductionz2after his rookie year? You guys are completely forgetting 2015 and 2016 seasons
SB Champion Odell
I'm praying him back to a full recovery in Jesus name!!!
Amen
10:36 it’s amazing watching everyone’s reaction to that super human catch
people really try to say hes only known for the one hand catch. No, he was the most exciting receiver to watch for a period of time.
Okay he’s nowhere near this level of play. But he’s still such a talented player. That browns era held him back. Kids going down as one of the greats of this era
PLEASE DO 2013 SHERMAN NEXT‼️🙏🏾
Beckham Jr Is Good NFL Throwback 🏈
He did things i never seen a wide receiver do his first 2-3 years in the league
JJ, Moss, Boldin
Man the giants started alot of those games behind on the scoreboard, you almost feel sorry for them. Odell was one of the few bright spots on that team.
Odell was much faster than his 4.43 40 time he was really a 4.35 or faster 💯
damn shame we never got Cruz, Odell together more longer.
God bless you guys Always keep God first
O in his prime was DIFFERENT I remember this time it was a 3way tie for best wideout between Ab,Julio and O ✊🏿
I’ll put this version of OBJ up against any receiver in history
8:37 "the concentration" glitch in the matrix
Nearly 1k in 7 games is unreal
As a giants fan idk why we decided to trade him after we just paid him a year earlier. Man I miss obj best and most talented wr we ever had in our franchise when healthy top 3 wr in his prime
It was only cuz of his personality issues that caused him to get traded
If he didn't miss the first 4 games he would have broken every rookie WR record
On his day he was on Randy/T.O levels, so purely talented his career ain’t over but this OBJ is probably gone thanks to all the injuries
In 12 games 🤦🏾♂️ if he played the whole year the bar would’ve been risen to high
I Miss giants OBJ
He didn’t even play the whole season and was hurt for the first few games imagine what he could have done that season without being put a couple of games
He had already broke the rookie receiving record
Could have possibly broke the all time season receiving record
Beautiful video! Thank for sharing! Thumb-up!😁🏈👍❤
LLLEEEETTTSSS GGGGOOO OBJ
Remember him with Justin Jeffersons brother at qb in that national title vs Alabama that was brutal
Like I was there to bare witness odell 2014-2018 was just different man , his rookie season was ridiculous
I miss Odell😔
might have hit 2k yards had he played all season. He just moved different, and seemed to be much faster than anyone else once he had the ball.
At 9:45 Al Michaels really foreshadowed Beckham jr 1 handed catch
What’s crazy was that he was breaking rookie records after missing 4 games
What Odell Beckham didn't understand is it's hard to throw the ball deep when you have no time to throw it!!!!!!! Eli
I got a feeling he's gonna end up on my packers to end the season since we can't rely on sammy Watkins and a rookie
Glad he got a ring with us.
Nice they did this for Revis Island also
Dat boy is what we call a Louisianimal down here in the boot, changed our whole state
Before he became a head case and injuries slowed him down, he was definitely one of the most naturally gifted athletes I had ever seen.
God given*
He doesn't have to do another thing and he's a Hall of famer.
Yeah, no. Not even remotely close to being a Hall of Famer. 0 All-Pro selections, never led the league in any statistical categories. Not even close.
Going to say it again fantastic catch but it was a equally great throw
top 10 prime for any receiver ever
If Odell just stayed out of trouble,focus on football more he still be with NY Giants.Probalbly HOF career,but got his SB ring with LA Rams later in career
When it's all said and done for OBJ
Brandon Carr is still his son👨👦
Do Walter Payton highlights please
Marcus Allen or Andre rison or Michael Irvin or many more
That's called throwing someone open.
Tyreek bill of current day reminds me plentifully of New York Odell
OBJ was special in his rookie year, he fell off ever since. However, at least he got a Super Bowl ring tho.
Nah he had a good 3-4 year run as one of the best receivers in the game
Only injuries hurt him his play hasn’t fallen
@@josephwilliams1263 I think he proved that this year when he was actually with a good team
Rookie year??
@@boppityboopy114 Yeah, that’s what I was trying to say. He was great in 2014, 2015, and 2016. 2017 he was injured, 2018 and 2019 he hit 1k yards those 2 season. 2020 he got injured. The beginning of his 2021 season started rough in Cleveland, however when he went to LA he had a strong 2nd half and got his first SB ring.
For non-athletic quarterback Eli Manning can throw the ball on the run very well
Eli Manning's critics are nuts he had a laser
Can still dominate when healthy
I miss him in my giants uniform 🥲
Everyone talks about the catch what about the freaking throw of 55 60 yard laser on a line.
If obj doesn't get fouled it's still a touchdown
Has nothing left to prove.
DON'T FORGET: ODELL BECKHAM#13 ONLY PLAYED 12 GAMES HIS ROOKIE SEASON(1305 YARDS .. 12 RECEIVING TDS) ..
Like josh Gordon on browns
top 3 wr Jalen Ramsey said
If the giants were a better team when they had OBJ Saquon and Eli who knows what would've happened
That offensive line couldnt block the care bears. That was always the downfall of an otherwise talented team
2016 they looked like a dark horse contender
@@Splappa09Gaming Eli got clobbered by the Redskins DL Rodgers in 2016, too. I was at that game and the TV didn't do that hit any justice. We did not think he was getting up.
Manning, Cruz, Barckly, I thnk there highlight reel plays rejuvenated the D. And was Coughlyn the coach his rookie year? At the same time this Giant team Reminds me of a Holgrome team, I wonder who was better in there prime The cheetah, or bend that big dilz like beckham?
The kid was going for 200 plus in the super bowl before he got hurt again.
What other qb is gonna utilize odell as well as Eli?
Obj ain't done
Putrid defenses and putrid offensive lines injuries plagued the Giants and one of the greatest quarterbacks who ever did it
