He doesn't look 4.3 fast. He has good hands though and seems to do everything well. I would still say Landry has the best hands. It's a good thing that we have a number of sure-handed players. We haven't really had a sure-handed receiver since Early. Hell, even our DBs are sure-handed!!!
No kidding! how did you like that comeback route that he slipped down on. He stuck those big paws out and snatched that ball out of the air while on the ground. It was a thing of beauty.
Yep, that is the catch I was most impressed on too. He plucks the ball out of the air effortlessly with his hands, away from his body. That particular catch showed great body control and agility as well as great hands. Some people just have soft hands. The key is to relax the hands. Also the very best, Jerry Rice, catch the ball with their fingertips contacting the ball first. If the ball hits your palms first it is more likely to bounce off. Some people do it naturally, others never seem to get it, or tense up from time to time.
That was a ridiculous catch, and it was also a fantastic throw. The DB had him covered, so Lee threw it to a spot that only Bekham could catch it. Those two seem to be in tune with one another.
