When Odell Beckham soared over Brandon Carr for an outstretched, three-fingered touchdown grab, it immediately became the best catch in NFL history.

We even spent several hundred words talking about it.
What Beckham did transcended sports -- everybody was talking about it, even people who didn't follow football. In fact, it was the second-most memorable moment from the 2014 season (Thanks, Pete Carroll!).
But Beckham admitted this summer that "It's unfortunate, in a way, to be known only for the catch." And that's fair. But you know what's worse? Being known only as the guy in coverage for the catch. Which brings us to Carr, who is sick and tired of your questions about what Beckham perpetrated against him that November evening in East Rutherford, N.J.
“You’re pissing me off with these questions,” Carr told the New York Post on Wednesday.
“I’m sick of talking about it a year later,” he continued. “It’s old. I don’t want to talk about no more, but y’all [media] just keep bringing it up, though. I’ll just go out and handle it, though. I’ve been through a lot.”
It's easy to see why Carr's ready to move on. This has been a topic for 10 months. Still, credit him for recognizing greatness.
“It was a great grab,” Carr conceded. “Kudos to him. I just bounced back and continue to play. That’s all I do. And answer these questions a year later. ... He’s a guy with exceptional ability and a big catch radius. And he’s a small guy that plays big.”
