Toes count as feet. in college you only need 1 foot down but in the NFL Both feet down. Also since you’re going to come across this at some point in college if you hit the ground even without being touched the play is over you’re considered tackled. For example if you slip in college wherever you slip that’s where you’re considered tackled. In the NFL you aren’t down unless an opposing player touches you while you have a body part on the ground
#9 and 3 were in the Super Bowl and their teams won because of those catches, so they are even more epic than just the catch itself. A lot of these highlight videos lack the context of the plays as some of them are in the playoffs or led to a huge win.
He was right about the yellow flag being a penalty. On the last catch the penalty was defensive pass interference. So basically the defense “cheated” and he still made that amazing catch.
Nah. OBJ committed the most blatant offensive pass interference foul in that play in possibly the history of the league, and got away with absolute highway robbery when the defense was flagged instead. The man literally threw the defender to the floor.
#3 is a real classic. It was in the Super Bowl after the 2007 season and it led to the game winning touchdown a few plays later. It was also the last career reception for the player who caught it, David Tyree. Tyree only played 2 more seasons before suffering career ending injuries and never caught another pass again, but man, if there ever was a catch that deserved to be a player's last reception, that was it.
also keep in mind this video is almost 8 years old and ive definitely seen some absolutely wild catches since then that wouldve easily made it into this video, like you could make a whole new "greatest catches of all time" video and a handful of them probably wouldve come from after 2015, theres just always something more unbelievable happening every few years. loving the reactions keep it up!
if you guys really want to see some mind blowing throws and plays look up the best plays from either Tom Brady or Patrick Mahomes and try to find a more recent video, they leave you speechless
Also fun fact about that last catch with OBJ: There was a photographer (5:11 Beneath the G in Giants, between the other tan vest on the left and the orange jacket on the right) that was fired because he looked like he was just standing there. His bosses saw it and essentially fired him via Twitter iirc. The dude was moving to go to a back room and upload some early pictures to their blog, and turns out he had the wherewithal to get the best photo of the catch. He was too close for his long range camera, which he had been using to get pics of Eli Manning from the snap, and had a second camera slung on his shoulder which he used for the pic. Because of how close he was, and how fast OBJ and the play was unfolding, he ended up just looking like he was stunned and didn't take any pics, but he's basically taking pics from his armpit without looking, trying to lean back to make sure the catch was in frame. I can't remember if the company hired him back when they saw it, but honestly, I would have said "I guess I'll take this picture to a different company and see what they can offer me as a job."
When you catch it you have to get two feet in bounds at some point whether it’s in the end zone or middle of the field. It’s about possession. You are not considered to have possession of the ball unless both feet are in bounds. If you are running the ball into the end zone vs catching it there you can jump or leap and as long as the ball crosses the end zone line it’s a touchdown because you already had possession down the field.
I’m enjoying you both discovering American sports. It’s fun to see you both discovering aspects of the USA that are positive. I hope you'll check out hockey and baseball. These sports have a lot of humorous moments. Americans love a good fight, verbal and otherwise. There is a channel called Lost in the Pond that many British channels react to. Of course I'd love to learn about where you both live, too. I like the conversation and friendship you both have. Subscribed. (Just an old cat lady in Connecticut. 😊)
Thank you Lisa! Good to know you are enjoying it! We are certainly enjoying learning and making content. We have a hockey video coming soon and will definitely do more hockey and some baseball too! Appreciate the support and you have a lovely cat!

Minor point - a fumble is when you have and then lose possession of the ball, as when you've completed a catch and then drop it - if you juggle the ball while trying to catch it we typically call that a "tip." You'll also hear "juggle," "bobble," etc.
hey yall need to check out 'nfl best toe tap catches'. itll show the grace and timing and concentration it takes to do what these guys do. if you decide to do the NFL video. and you should do 'best routes' ran as well
You seemed impressed by the level of dedication put towards college football. A university in Colorado dedicated a lot to revamping their program this year and the creator Deestroying made a video touring it with their new star receiver. It’s an over $150 million facility and they aren’t a top team. Other facilities you could check out are Georgia, Alabama, and Clemson.
In college, and the XFL, it's only one foot down. In the NFL it's a bit more complicated. In the NFL you need two feet down or equivalent. The equivalents are one knee down, or one wrist, or elbow down or when your butt or one or both shoulders touch before going out of bounds
In NFL, two feet down and toes count. In college football, just one foot down is required. However, what needs to also happen is that the receiver must have full control of the ball. The ref determines if control is had and then looks to see feet. Also, if the catch goes to the ground(falls), the receiver must keep control of the ball through the entire process. If the ball moves, it may be considered an incomplete pass or if the receiver regains control, where are the feet at that time.
Want to watch the best catch video check out best toe taps. Few things have to happen for it to be a catch, need possession w 2 feet in bounds or one elbow equals 2 feet. Watching them work the sidelines is a thing of beauty. In college you only need one foot in bounds
"Look how cool he is about it... you know another day, another touchdown." - Ya... that's Randy Moss. That was definitely a normal thing for him. You should have a look at his Wiki page.
React to the college FB playoff game highlights between Michigan vs TCU & Georgia vs Ohio State . Two great games. The channel "Wheels" will not block your content like the NFL will.
Yes, you guys should definitely react to those. Probably the two best semi-final playoff games I have ever seen, certainly getting them back to back in the same year. That was 8 hours of non-stop amazing football. For reference in case you’re trying to look them up, he’s talking about the two semi-final games from this season’s College Football Playoff that were played this past New Year’s Eve.
At 3:55 my heart sunk... I know the play. I know what was at stake. I know what it led to... ugg.... for New England, the infamous Super Bowl helmet catch.
#2 catch was a pass interference flag. The defender dragged him to the ground before the ball got there and he still made the catch. That's why it's so legendary.
If you like the passing game, do a dive on the 2007 New England patriots. They’re the only team to ever go 16-0 in the regular season and they smashed every passing record and essentially ushered in an entire new era of the NFL being based around a passing game. Tom Brady (quarterback) and randy moss (wide receiver) each set new records in their first and only full season together.
That penalty at the end would have been for pass interference against the defender. You’re not allowed to physically interfere with the receiver’s ability to catch the ball because you’ve turned his body or pulled on his arms, etc. Yeah, so that touchdown would count.
A great Follow up: The GREATEST Hail Mary's in NFL History! A Hail Mary is a last minute throw, and as the name implies, it is a throw and pray, Chuck it up for Jesus, or whatever saying applies to the situation. Also, History of NFL's WORST Weather Games: Snow, Rain, Heat, & More! is a great time. Love your channel. Edit: College requires the receiver have one foot down in the field of play for a reception (catch) and the NFL requires both feet down.
To catch 'inbounds' you must have both feet down & control of the ball in your hands or arms. It would be odd but if the player were to touch knees down it would be the same. So you could say part of the body down & control of the ball. I haven't followed the NFL in years, but they have had where if the player have landed out of bounds but was knocked out in the air, the ref could call it a catch at their discretion. I think that doesn't come up much & has faded away as a rule. Carried to an extreme it make sense. A strong player could catch the receiver in mid air in the middle of the field & carry him to the sidelines. The ref would have blown the play dead by then or course. But it does follow the logic.
Two feet down is the standard, but if other parts of you land inside the field of play, that can also count. Like, if you only have one foot down, but your calf, thigh, or butt is also in the field of play, that will count as "two feet in."
A few specific players that can fill an entire highlight video on their own Running back - Barry Sanders Receiver - Randy Moss Quarterback - Patrick Mahomes
Just fyi: That first catch was made by Calvin Johnson. And just to give you some detail...because it's difficult to see on tv...that man is about 6'5, 240 pounds. He was nicknamed "Megatron" because he was a FREAK. Think about it boys. 6'5, 240! That is a MASSIVE individual.
I'm enjoying your reactions and seeing you become familiar with the rules of American Football. There are two BIG differences between the NFL reception rule vs. every other level of American Football from youth football through high school and college. In the NFL, the receiver must secure the ball and then touch both feet in bounds. Also in the NFL, if a player with possession of the ball goes to the ground but is not touched by a defender while on the ground, he can get up and run. For every other level of football, a receiver only needs to get possession of the ball and one foot in bounds and if a player with the ball goes to the ground the play is dead at that spot on the field. Also, a knee (or any other body part) landing in bounds is equivalent to two feet down in bounds in the NFL or one foot in bounds for every other level of football. So, if a player catches a pass and his knee touches in bounds and then he slides out of bounds, it's a good / completed catch. Same is true if he lands on his "bum", hip, shoulder, elbow, etc. One of America's most beloved NFL coaches - and later TV commentators, the late John Madden, was famous for his simple explanation of the NFL rule by saying, "a knee equals two feet."
Very cool to see your appreciation of American football. If you want to get an actual inside perspective on football, may I recommend two books by John Madden: "Hey! Wait A Minute! I Wrote A Book" and "One Knee Equals Two Feet: And Everything Else You Need to Know About Football" will give you a great insiders view of the game. Madden coached the Raiders in the 1970s. At that time they were the rowdiest, craziest bunch of athletes ever assembled, both on and off the field. Two things you'll get from Madden: a deeper understanding of the rules, strategies, and general nature of the game on the field, and a bunch of anecdotes about the completely insane antics of players off the field. "Wednesday is Toozday."Great reaction videos, guys!
The #1 play had a flag thrown for defensive pass interference. The corner back interfered with Odell BJ and that’s why he had to make so much a dramatic catch. It was rewarded as a touchdown.
About half of these were in Super Bowls. I think number 1 isn't necessarily the best, but it involved 2 teams that get huge TV audiences, New York and Dallas ("America's team"). The Cowboys are the most expensive sports franchise in the world and get huge ratings for no apparent reason.
While you are using the word within its traditional definition, "fumble" in American football has a very specific meaning. In order to "fumble" in American football a player must first have possession of the ball and then lose control of the ball. Since a receiver does not have possession of the ball until he completes the catch technically he cannot "fumble" the ball. Generally experienced observers say he "juggled" or "bobbled" the ball instead of "fumbled". Just a friendly point of American football vernacular. Cheers!
Getting your feet down only matters when catches are made near the “out of bounds” line in college & High School a player only needs to get one foot down in order for it to be a complete catch. In the NFL you need to get both feet in bounds in order for it to be a complete catch. Also in all leagues you’re knee, elbow, hand, butt, back, shoulder, chest, stomach, and head count the same as getting 2 feet inbounds. Additionally, you must maintain control of the ball through the entire catch for it to count, this means, if you get both feet down but the ball is bobbling around in your hands or arms and you finally get control when you’re out of bounds the catch is incomplete and a player must maintain possession of the ball when going to the ground. This means if you can’t get control of the ball while going to the ground and the ball hits the ground or the ground knocks the ball loose the catch is incomplete. There it is I think I covered all the rules of catching the ball. I think.
@@DNReacts I think a great video for you to watch next is “14 minutes of brutal football trucks.” It’s a compilation of the gnarliest trucks in football history.
I played football in the college ranks you only have to have one foot inbounds to count but you do have to have control of the football also, in the NFL You have control of the football and both feet inbounds for it to count unless you are being pushed out of bounds the the line judge could rule you would have been inbounds but was forced out the it would be called a catch. I never made pro but did try out and found out that being 5 foot 9 inches and 225 lbs is not big enough to be a nose guard, the center I had to go up against was 6 foot 8 inches and 300 lbs, I was hurt bad on the third play and ended up in the hospital with cracked ribs and broken right wrist. Lol but I still loved the chance and would do it all again, heck I made $1500.00 and all medicals paid for. That was in 1980.
Watch Greatest College Entrances... I'm prejudice.. I'm a bleed Orange Clemson fan. Check out Clemson touching the rock and Running Down the Hill at "Death Valley" MOST EXCITING 25 SECONDS IN COLLEGE FOOTBALL! GO TIGERS!
if you see a flag thrown near a receiver its usually defensive pass interference... you cannot physically grab the receiver before the ball gets there otherwise the games would be just a bunch of receivers with players hanging from them... as a defensive player you have to let them run their routes and if you going to knock the ball down you have to turn toward the ball you can't just stick your hand in front of the receiver face... its a spot foul so its pretty serious foul... and if the receiver catches the ball in spite of the foul the offence can decline the penalty...
Catching a football in live play - even under routine circumstances - is far more difficult than it looks. It is very easy to become disoriented, lose the ball in flight, or simply drop it. It requires far more than great foot speed and leaping ability - although those qualities are prized amongst receivers. They also tend to have enormous hands, even relative to their already larger-than-the-average-man size. Some receivers have hand spans (measured from little finger to thumb with palm flat and fingers splayed) of nearly 11-12 inches. The athletic ability, vision, spatial judgment, and concentration required to carry off what these men do, is well beyond next level. To get an idea, find a football and someone who knows how to throw it. Then go to a park, run some basic pass patterns against no opposition, and keep track of how many you catch. I guarantee it will be fewer than those which hit the ground.
You are gonna need to react to the video “Aaron Rodgers - The Bad Man” he is one of the best Quarterbacks and the video shows how he went from being hated to loved.
The penalty on the last play was pass interference. This means that the defensive player illegally interfered with the offensive receiver's opportunity to catch the ball. The defensive player was holding onto the player's body/jersey which slows the players and thus impedes his ability to make a catch. Defensive players are allowed to go for the ball to intercept it, put a hand in the way and block it and so on. But cannot touch the offensive player(except usually within the first 5 yards of the play)
One foot inbounds in college football. Two feet inbounds in pro football. But it can literally be the absolute tips of your toes OR the tip of the ball crosses the plane.
As others have said college is one foot, NFL is two, but one knee equals two feet. The penalty on the last touchdown was on the defensive player who illegally grabbed the receiver before he touched the ball. (Pass interference)
The yellow flag on the last catch was because the defensive player made contact with the receiver while the ball was in the air ( it's called an interference
I agree with all those catches but it needed to go back and include some of the catches in the seventies. Such as The Immaculate Reception, any catch in any Super Bowl, etc.

Got it! Thanks for the info Jake! A few people have mentioned the one foot, two foot thing. Makes sense!
@@DNReacts also 1 knee down equals 2 feet
Yeah if any part of the body (besides the hands and feet) touches the ground, that also counts as in bounds automatically as well at any level.
You just need 2 points of contact doesnt matter what it is.
@@jakehart60 thats really just because its nearly impossible for your knee to touch without the bottom half also touching making 2 points of contact

Gotta say, the catch by Julian Edelman in the Super Bowl against Atlanta was one of the all-time improbable circus catches.
Agreed. As much as I love Randy Moss, that wasn't even one of his best but the Edelman catch topped the Moss one they showed.
Also fun fact about that last catch with OBJ: There was a photographer (5:11 Beneath the G in Giants, between the other tan vest on the left and the orange jacket on the right) that was fired because he looked like he was just standing there. His bosses saw it and essentially fired him via Twitter iirc.

One of the wildest things was he was being interfered with and close-ups of the catch showed he caught it with three fingers.

Very cool to see your appreciation of American football. If you want to get an actual inside perspective on football, may I recommend two books by John Madden: "Hey! Wait A Minute! I Wrote A Book" and "One Knee Equals Two Feet: And Everything Else You Need to Know About Football" will give you a great insiders view of the game. Madden coached the Raiders in the 1970s. At that time they were the rowdiest, craziest bunch of athletes ever assembled, both on and off the field. Two things you'll get from Madden: a deeper understanding of the rules, strategies, and general nature of the game on the field, and a bunch of anecdotes about the completely insane antics of players off the field. "Wednesday is Toozday."Great reaction videos, guys!
Thank you for the recommendation!
If you guys haven't done a Barry Sanders reaction yet, you need to. Greatest pure runner of all time
That first catch is probably the best catch of all time 😂
The #1 play had a flag thrown for defensive pass interference. The corner back interfered with Odell BJ and that’s why he had to make so much a dramatic catch. It was rewarded as a touchdown.
If you get a chance, I would recommend watching the greatest runs by Barry Sanders of the Detroit Lions.
It’s funny you say that, we’ve just recorded it today 😀
About half of these were in Super Bowls. I think number 1 isn't necessarily the best, but it involved 2 teams that get huge TV audiences, New York and Dallas ("America's team"). The Cowboys are the most expensive sports franchise in the world and get huge ratings for no apparent reason.
In the NFL, it's "2 feet down". That includes "toe-taps". ANY part of the foot. In college football, you only need one foot down.
If you just catch the ball in any way in the end zone it’s an automatic touchdown or Touchback
Great channel guys! You should check out Randy Moss career highlights
Thank you 😀
While you are using the word within its traditional definition, "fumble" in American football has a very specific meaning. In order to "fumble" in American football a player must first have possession of the ball and then lose control of the ball. Since a receiver does not have possession of the ball until he completes the catch technically he cannot "fumble" the ball. Generally experienced observers say he "juggled" or "bobbled" the ball instead of "fumbled". Just a friendly point of American football vernacular. Cheers!
Once upon a time Brandon Lloyd won me a fantasy title. Love ya, buddy
Getting your feet down only matters when catches are made near the “out of bounds” line in college & High School a player only needs to get one foot down in order for it to be a complete catch. In the NFL you need to get both feet in bounds in order for it to be a complete catch. Also in all leagues you’re knee, elbow, hand, butt, back, shoulder, chest, stomach, and head count the same as getting 2 feet inbounds. Additionally, you must maintain control of the ball through the entire catch for it to count, this means, if you get both feet down but the ball is bobbling around in your hands or arms and you finally get control when you’re out of bounds the catch is incomplete and a player must maintain possession of the ball when going to the ground. This means if you can’t get control of the ball while going to the ground and the ball hits the ground or the ground knocks the ball loose the catch is incomplete. There it is I think I covered all the rules of catching the ball. I think.
Thank you! This is a great help, really appreciate the info 😀
@@DNReacts I think a great video for you to watch next is “14 minutes of brutal football trucks.” It’s a compilation of the gnarliest trucks in football history.
2 feet of 1 body part above the knees or elbows to be inbounds
This video is good but it is old. Since then, more amazing catches have happened.
I played football in the college ranks you only have to have one foot inbounds to count but you do have to have control of the football also, in the NFL You have control of the football and both feet inbounds for it to count unless you are being pushed out of bounds the the line judge could rule you would have been inbounds but was forced out the it would be called a catch. I never made pro but did try out and found out that being 5 foot 9 inches and 225 lbs is not big enough to be a nose guard, the center I had to go up against was 6 foot 8 inches and 300 lbs, I was hurt bad on the third play and ended up in the hospital with cracked ribs and broken right wrist. Lol but I still loved the chance and would do it all again, heck I made $1500.00 and all medicals paid for. That was in 1980.
In the NFL you have to have two "feet down" and the toes count as feet. In college and high school you only need one foot down.
#1 play should be Julien Edelmans superbowl catch and it's not even listed lol
Watch Greatest College Entrances...
I'm prejudice.. I'm a bleed Orange Clemson fan.
Check out Clemson touching the rock and Running Down the Hill at "Death Valley"
MOST EXCITING 25 SECONDS IN COLLEGE FOOTBALL!
GO TIGERS!
if you see a flag thrown near a receiver its usually defensive pass interference... you cannot physically grab the receiver before the ball gets there otherwise the games would be just a bunch of receivers with players hanging from them... as a defensive player you have to let them run their routes and if you going to knock the ball down you have to turn toward the ball you can't just stick your hand in front of the receiver face... its a spot foul so its pretty serious foul... and if the receiver catches the ball in spite of the foul the offence can decline the penalty...
You might enjoy watching the Ohio State marching band tribute to Hollywood blockbuster movies. They take marching to another level.
Thank you Ron!
Can't be a top ten as there are easily 20 more as good as this.
Catching a football in live play - even under routine circumstances - is far more difficult than it looks. It is very easy to become disoriented, lose the ball in flight, or simply drop it. It requires far more than great foot speed and leaping ability - although those qualities are prized amongst receivers. They also tend to have enormous hands, even relative to their already larger-than-the-average-man size. Some receivers have hand spans (measured from little finger to thumb with palm flat and fingers splayed) of nearly 11-12 inches.
The athletic ability, vision, spatial judgment, and concentration required to carry off what these men do, is well beyond next level. To get an idea, find a football and someone who knows how to throw it. Then go to a park, run some basic pass patterns against no opposition, and keep track of how many you catch. I guarantee it will be fewer than those which hit the ground.
You are gonna need to react to the video “Aaron Rodgers - The Bad Man” he is one of the best Quarterbacks and the video shows how he went from being hated to loved.
Thank you for the suggestion!
@@DNReacts yeah I definitely recommend that video. Some insane highlights.
One foot down in college, 2 in the NFL
You should watch the video called the rules of America football.
At least 4 of those catches were during the Super Bowl
A toe touch is good enough. In the NFL, both feet have to touch. In college, only one foot touch is necessary..
You guys just need to buy a football, baseball, and a couple gloves and start throwing them around. Good, clean fun!
You should react to Randy Moss highlights
You all should check out the NFL Combine. It taken place now. College players invited to do drills for possible NFL picks.
We will be taking a look 😀
Top college football atmospheres please!
That toe catch won them the superbowl
The penalty on the last play was pass interference. This means that the defensive player illegally interfered with the offensive receiver's opportunity to catch the ball. The defensive player was holding onto the player's body/jersey which slows the players and thus impedes his ability to make a catch. Defensive players are allowed to go for the ball to intercept it, put a hand in the way and block it and so on. But cannot touch the offensive player(except usually within the first 5 yards of the play)
They should have made Julian Edelman’s impossible Super Bowl catch #1.
One foot inbounds in college football. Two feet inbounds in pro football. But it can literally be the absolute tips of your toes OR the tip of the ball crosses the plane.
Randy moss 🐐🐐
The yellow flag was for pass interference on the defense. So the TD still counted
....you will thoroughly enjoy BARRY SANDERS 50 best runs....wow!
Or Marshawn Lynch's famous "Beast Quake" run: ruclips.net/video/nt0jAa6alUc/видео.html&ab_channel=NFL
college is one foot, pros is two feet
2 foots down :)
In the pros, you need both feet down. In college it's only one foot.
Fun fact: Santonio Holmes catch (#9) should have been ruled incomplete, as he only got one foot on the ground before he hit the sideline.
As others have said college is one foot, NFL is two, but one knee equals two feet. The penalty on the last touchdown was on the defensive player who illegally grabbed the receiver before he touched the ball. (Pass interference)
College football you only need one foot in bounds, Pro you need both feet inside bounds to count.
For the #1 catch: the flag was against the Cowboys, the catch counted, and the Giants still lost. 🤠
The yellow flag on the last catch was because the defensive player made contact with the receiver while the ball was in the air ( it's called an interference
Penalty
Interference penalty, but it was declined because the play ended as a touchdown
I think you guys would really enjoy NFL MIC’D UP MOMENTS. You’d have a good laugh and it’s fun to hear the stupid stuff the players say on the field.
That’s on the list for us to see 😀
I agree with all those catches but it needed to go back and include some of the catches in the seventies. Such as The Immaculate Reception, any catch in any Super Bowl, etc.
In the NFL it is both feet, in College it is one foot.
Someone please tell them what a fumble is lol.
We know! They’ve told us 😂
You should look up the "immaculate reception" and let us know what you think.
